I'm curious how you think the third is consistent with the idea that minors can't consent to sex. Do you justify it pragmatically or is there something deeper?

It's more or less impossible to express recursion (in the same ways you can with js) with pure css/html. If you want to be overly reductionist then you can argue nothing matters because your just staring at a box with lights in it

I tend to be right leaning and would flip out if the extreme left was censored. If you can't have a discussion you can't have democracy.

Collaboration may be harder with programming but we have decades of experience (as a race) in how to make it pretty easy. Github style PRs are IMO one of the most powerful tools for this.

If it bother's you there's TOR and you can ssh to a vps. Most stuff is encrypted now and there are 3 different DNS encryption standards (one of which is actually good.) IMO: what's left of that issue is getting solved.

It's arguably negligent to not block TOR traffic from your payment page. People should otherwise be able to read at least the static parts of your site from TOR.
