How did SJWs get to this point of having this much power in society?

[Arnox]

Sorry this took so long. I was procrastinating replying because there was so much to reply to. lol

then start regulating the rest of the industry until it's under control.

It won't ever be "under control". Just pushed to different places. And for what? If you want to punish sex-trafficking, do it. You don't need to ban porn to enforce that. Actually, if anything, banning porn makes busting sex-traffickers harder as they retreat underground more.

Pictures and/or videos depicting one or more adults engaging in, and/or performing sexual acts with the sole intent of arousing the viewer.

Women should practice modesty and not be whores

Why is dressing sexy being "a whore"?

I have seen, with my own eyes, literal children going into a drag show and watching naked men dance around dressed as women, while the police stand outside and tell you “we have to remain neutral”

Wait... How have you seen it "with your own eyes"? Did you actually go to these drag shows yourself?

They forced the addicts into jail until the withdrawals were over.

Guess what, man? Withdrawals aren't the only aspect of drug addiction. They didn't solve any problem. They just made things worse for the lower class in order to make themselves feel better. And regardless, are we SERIOUSLY going to promote a nation that decides you need to be killed just because you owned a bunch of fucking weed?

I think a lot of addicts do want to use.

Well yeah. They want to use because their lives are shit. That or they're tricked into taking fentanyl (bad drug sourcing is yet another problem by making drugs illegal by the way) and get hooked.

I don’t know what a coping skill is but hell even I can manage to stay clean.

People's reactions to different drugs are not always the same. Some people, for example, find weed to be addictive, whereas other people can't even stand meth. You need to have more empathy. Now, yeah, let's say you DO give someone all the resources in the world to quit and they still do it. Then yes, there's not much at all you can do in that case and no amount of empathy is going to make them stop. But that's my point. To just completely deprive addicts of resources to help themselves have a new start and THEN blame them for relapsing because "they didn't try hard enough" is both inaccurate and insulting to them I feel.

people abuse it.

People abuse it because there's no other form of relief, or very few forms. You know, there have been other countries that used to struggle with a huge heroin problem, but they fixed it all through funding rehab centers and giving people chances to actually have lives again. Give people something to lose. Something to live for. (Psychedelics as treatment would also MASSIVELY help.) If you do that, you'll find very probably that way fewer people will relapse, whether it be alcohol or fentanyl. You can't just have it be all stick. You need some carrot too. But the stick is all authoritarians and extremists seem to understand...

but it destroys the market for it.

But it won't. At all. It just moves it someplace else entirely out of governmental hands.

Women sell naked pictures of themselves for $5 a month and this is supposed to be celebrated? This is supposed to be a good thing?

It's supposed to be their own business. If they fully consent, then it's entirely their choice. Whether it's a good choice or a bad choice is not for me or you to decide for them.

How many years was this idea pushed into the mainstream until people were okay with it? It’s kind of the same thing with pornography.

It's not. At all. Abortion concerns a non-consenting life. Pornography (assuming no coercion of any kind and the participants are all of age) is a consensual construct.

You’re not supposed to be exposed to hardcore pornography at 8 years old

I mean... Back in ancient times, someone's nude body was hardly the worst thing you would see even when you were just 8 years old. That said, I do understand what you're saying, and beyond implementing my system for this, I don't entirely have a solution there beyond the fact that the parents need to parent and there's only so much you can do regardless. As one grows up, the world must, sooner or later, introduce itself. The parents need to make sure that when that does happen, the child is properly prepared for it.

All the social groups are shit because all the cool kids left.

The centerists got shamed or booted out and the extremists took over.

I got mixed up so my replies are out of order somewhat.


Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. You could look through the window and plainly see what was going on. Police did nothing. As I said before, I was protesting.

I’m not entirely against social programs for drug addicts. Just not sure how successful it would be. When I went to the clinic you had to go to therapy twice a month, but you quickly figure out how to tell the therapist what they want to hear, so it kind of defeats the purpose.

I will never say porn is good. I will always think it should be illegal. Like I said before there is zero benefit to it.

The point I was making with abortion is the insane amount of propaganda people have consumed in order to think viewing hardcore pornography is a good or normal thing. It’s not.

All of this kind of assumes we have a system that cares about the health and well being of its citizens, but we don’t. I think we can both agree on that.

 

[Arnox]

Like I said before there is zero benefit to it.

Pretty debatable, but even if there wasn't, I still say making it illegal will do more harm than good. Maybe even far more harm. Hell, there is pornography all over history. You just don't see it because history textbooks filter most, if not all of it out now. Humanity, in general, has always been a very sexual species, and like it not, that nature will come out in our art and media. So, with that, you have two choices. You can either accept your, and my, and almost everyone's nature, or you can try running from it, but I really wouldn't recommend the latter option.

All of this kind of assumes we have a system that cares about the health and well being of its citizens, but we don’t. I think we can both agree on that.

Wait, what is this in relation to exactly?

Social programs are only as good as the people running it can understand the youth. There's a population of adults that lose touch with how kids work in general and talk out of their ass, or use a small percentage of behavior to define everyone else. If the rehab isn't relatively personalized based on both finding and addressing the reason they use drugs, it's useless.


Porn is as bad as drinking some vodka. If you don't normalize the use, you'll go out of control. Moderation is key.

People that have a porn addiction have personal issues outside of just ingesting porn to fix.

 

[Too Much Screen Time]

I'm dumb about this especially because I came from some irrelevant country, so I'm only explaining in a very shallow knowledge of what's going on.

The only thing that comes to mind is the more successful gaslighting. People in general want to be good, and how this is done varies. However, if they're successfully convinced that what they've reasonably done (like say, accepting there are only two genders) makes them Evil and there are no other ways around it aside from forcefully following the ideology they don't want to follow, the SJWs have taken a mile. The SJWs will continue to repeat this, with their new followers (including corporations and governments) parroting their idea and making it the new normal in life, and they'll keep calling normal people wrong until they give in or... disappear.

In current year context, social media providing more power only makes things worse.
