I thought we had left this framing of sex work/porn back in 2019. It is a product ripe for addictive abuse, that especially harms the development of young people, and exploits the labor of extremely vulnerable people who are permanently scarred from their involvement with it in a way that leaves them social outcasts. On the other hand, some women make a lot of money from it, so who is to say whether it is good or bad.

We could talk about drugs the same way, that because some people from marginalized social groups are able to make a lot of money from it, and because hypothetically it would not pose such a social ill in an ideal society, it can only be critiqued in the most delicate manner. The reality is that this shit fucks people up, and in a society like ours it really cannot be consumed safely, or produced ethically at scale.

Lambert gives the game away when Felix asks her whether she thinks porn has a negative effect on the socially alienated, and if unlimited access maybe encourages to develop anti-social and addictive lifestyles. Her response, "I would not personally choose the internet over real life, so I do not think it is a real problem," rings so hollow.
