Look, all I’m gonna say on The Current Topic is that moderation needs to be consistent - if you’re gonna drop the hammer for quoting song lyrics and getting pissed about child rapists, yet you let slide accounts that say trans people shouldn’t exist, then yeah, there’s gonna be some questions.

If you find yourself typing sentences expounding on the semantic difference between pedophile, hebophile, and ephebophile, you should delete those sentences, walk outside, lay down in the grass, let the vultures have your flesh, the sun to bleach your bones, etc

They will try to censor porn. They will use those rules to then censor anything and everything else 1 inch at a time. You need to support porn and you need to do it vocally. The Internet (and all other media types) you save will be your own.

RE starbucks picket line--the relevant detail is "picket line, do not cross." Pass that along. Proclaiming that you are in no danger of doing so because you are too aesthetically pure to let Starbucks coffee pass your lips is...unhelpful and does not give the impression you perhaps imagine it does.

PORN IS ART, PORN IS GOOD, PEOPLE MAKING PORN IS A SIGN OF A HEALTHY SOCIETY
There has been a noticeable reticence in left and liberal circles to voice full-throated support for pornography, even as it's become increasingly clear what the open end goals of the censorship movement are
In a lot of ways other leftists chose this path folks. They shrugged and didn’t care when Patreon banned a ton of hypnosis and TF creators, or when YouTube started their ASMR crackdown. Now it’s coming for queer porn creators, more and more. Who will stand up?

Thatcher's government did this with Section 28, banned the "promotion of homosexuality" as a danger to children, while actively protecting Jimmy Savile and who knows how many other pedophiles. It's the same damn playbook.
I cannot begin to properly articulate how upsetting it is to have had people baselessly accuse trans people of being groomers and pedophiles only for it to come out that they were deliberately doing this as part of a project to provide cover to actual groomers and pedophiles in positions of power

it's been hard to put this feeling into words, but we've spent the past couple of decades being lectured to and patronized by an elite class that spent its free time joshing with jeffrey epstein about his little sex abuse empire while lecturing us about how out of touch we are
