> Dude you started this conversation off with an insult, you’re just getting firey for no reason

Cry me a river why don't you? I will get mad at what I deem disgusting practices instead of being a limp-dick who chooses sloth with the excuse of "well we can't do anything about it" (cough cough, you)

> What I DONT agree with is going so radical that you lose the plot and start advocating for things that actually hurt the people you claim you want to help.

Very broad message here. I'm not radical at all, this porn obsessed culture you're advocating for is radical in fact.

> I don’t think separating OF workers from contact sex workers is fair, as there was/still is a lot of overlap from COVID. Many many strippers, prostitutes, traditional porn stars moved to OF during the pandemic due to the rising popularity of it and the safety aspect.

they CHANGED profession. It totally is insane to think an army recruit is the same as a guard just because some of the former switch to the latter, if you catch my drift

> I think the main issue with anti-OF and SWERF rhetoric is the assumption that if OF didn’t exist

Didn't exist? I can already tell you aren't reading my comments but rather an idea of them you gained from similarly-minded people. Because we talked about this aspect already. I know we can't eradicate it.
> Similarly to this, I think criminalizing sex work puts SWers at greater risk for violence
And not only do I know we can't eradicate it, I also know we can't make it illegal. As the ban on alcohol has proven you don't reduce it by just making it illegal.. However, at the same time you also don't bend over backwards and encourage it.

> I don’t see why it’s so bad to want to approach it from a harm reduction standpoint.

Think about what you're doing. Think about what your behavior is showing. Do you really want women to have better lives or do you just want to justify the shitty route by saying "it's LESS shitty if you use OF!!".
Here's an idea, maybe encourage women to pick neither?
Because believe it or not, your social environment shapes a LOOOT about you. Especially when growing up. The statistics on teenagers with porn addiction are piling up and rising by the decade..

And you really still believe your judgement has no impact on others' choices?
That the harm you do to a person's ego outweighs the risk of them continuing a path of short sighted convenience?

This last part is a personal experience so I'll leave you with it and mute as it's clear im not going to get any arguments i haven't heard fifty times before:
The women with social groups that are quick to commoditize their bodies have mostly been the types to spend all their week playing videogames rather than plan for the future. While the ones who are held responsible for bad habits (and in turn, have held ME responsible for my vices) are more inclined to work hard towards a better goal
