Technically yes, but it’s a very niche kink that not that many people actually engage in. Like imagine if vore was blown up in media until everyone was worried about the vore epidemic. Thats about the same level.
Genuinely I appreciate the advice, as an autistic person (and federal agent of course) it’s not often enough I get to actually have clear feedback on how I could have done an interaction better
Sure I’m currently high enough I’ll try to explain my thoughts through all of that, although most of it is “I’m kinda dumb”
Why I speak like that, I’m not really sure and it’s not something I love about myself but usually how the posts come out here is how the thoughts are going inside, I mask more in other places, here I tend to write how I think.
Why I thought it wouldn’t cause a struggle session, I think I vastly overestimated the degree to which volcel police was a bit, I thought it was just something we were doing because weirdo right wingers were “incels” and someone someday decided that “volcel” was funny.
I don’t generally think of Hexbear as more puritanical than the rest of the Anglo world I think it’s on the more sexually liberated end of things, which is why when in the past I’ve seen things that go against that I go “Oh wait this exists here too.”
So aside from what I thought was a small minority of users I kinda thought I was gonna be preaching to the choir?
I thought discussion of these ideas as right wingers propaganda by a PhD student researching that topic was something people here might appreciate, and then as I was writing the post I got in a weird mode and let the annoying argumentative side out I guess?
I still stand by most of what I’ve said although I could’ve been less of an asshole about some of it. As far as poisoning the well, the point of the video was that these beliefs come from right wing propaganda, so that’s a problem inherent to talking about this, that’s not just me being an asshole in the comments.
In retrospect should I have known this would’ve caused an argument though? 100%
Most lethal military on earth
Honestly half the time that is basically how I see it used everywhere lately
I won’t disagree that there are people who have an unhealthy relationship with porn that negatively impacts their lives.
But that is not what makes an addiction, and a lot of that unhealthy relationship is caused by the stigmatization of porn in the first place.
The largest institution of porn in our fascist society has fascist categories
That doesn’t really say anything about porn inherently, just that we live in a fascist society.
“Porn addiction” is basically non existent and affects such a small portion of the population as to not be relevant
That's NOT true
The World Health Organization disagrees with you, as does the American Psychological Association. I don’t know how to tell you “this disease is fake” in a more definitive way than “All of the experts on this subject say it’s not real”
This and honestly I think the existence of dating apps is sexually repressive in and of itself.
Many people today are uncomfortable with the concept of flirting with a stranger at a bar. And I don’t just mean “Man you just can’t sexually harass a woman like you used to!”
Both men and women have now become accustomed to the idea that it’s only appropriate to flirt in the environment of dating app where flirting is inherently agreed on up front. It is only appropriate to do romance under the thumb of the corporations. Anything else would be a social faux pas, you wouldn’t want to potentially make someone uncomfortable would you? Best to stay in the meeting space designated to you b Capital.
Like, literally by definition that person is not a hostage. Words have meanings!
An on duty soldier captured by enemy soldiers is not a hostage! That is a prisoner of war.
There’s the rub though, on a wide scale it very much doesn’t, thinking of it through the lens of addiction makes the problem significantly worse, and intensifies the feelings of shame and anxiety.
