It’s never about protecting victims. It’s always about control. And it never stops.

Censorship is a comfortable lie. It *feels* like something is being done to fix the issue. Instead, it is denying you your right to access information. And porn is an easy way for them to keep denying more access. What is porn? They get to define that now.

Censoring pornography does nothing to stem the tide of misogyny from other mainstream media or world leaders. Access to information is not to blame in a culture whose leaders teach men to see women as non-human enough to choke them during sex without asking for consent, or stopping when they say no

Censorship does not fix the problem of poor global sex education. When we do teach about consent, it by nature includes the reciprocal; what happens when someone *does not* consent. Censorship does not stop violators, nor does it protect a victim who doesn’t know they’re being violated #consent

If you’ve ever wondered how people can become comfortable with the idea of censorship, take a look, it’s happening now.

In a system that already requires age verification for porn access, this can be nothing else but denying adults the right to access information

“Its several pages speak of many a walk, many a drive, and many a conversation, when I was not alone; and my companion was one who, in this world, I shall never see more. But this is for myself; my readers have nothing to do with these associations.”

This is how I learned to never skip the intro

“And now, once again, I bid my hideous progeny go forth and prosper. I have an affection for it, for it was the offspring of happy days, when death and grief were but words, which found no true echo in my heart.”
