@AnarchistArt "Bastard" to be born out of wedlock is not an insult and its a vestige of christian puritanism we shouldnt be giving any credence: there are many people alive today including people I know personally who think sex outside marriage is a sin

No approval-no disapproval policies are just disapproval with extra steps.

Yes S&M practises can be dangerous, so can vanilla straight sex, or bungee jumping or alcohol or weed.

Individuals don't always make the best choices for themselves or others but by framing that as intrinsically the fault of S&M you're moralizing an amoral activity and painting with broad strokes over the numerous well documented safe and consensual practices

Sadism also comes with mental health risks one of which is "dom drop", a feeling of guilt after a scene for hurting someone they care about, doms need aftercare just as much as subs

Some of your arguments sound similar to arguments of "cultural degeneration" that sexual deviants are becoming too unashamed and their inherently harmful practices are leaking out into "polite society"

Either S&M is fundamentally abusive in which case we should oppose it unambiguously, or it is not intrinsically abusive and the problems you're talking about have a deeper root cause that we should focus on rather than villainising people practicing safe and consensual sex

So you're just talking about S&M (Sadomasochism) kinks then not all kinks?

In that case, S&M can be practised consensually and safely, the notion that all S&M is abusive is a deep misunderstanding of the trust and communication involved.

Staying safe, (including mental health) and consensual while practising more dangerous kinks like S&M kinks is almost always at the center of every kink community I've come across

I'm not denying that people use S&M as an excuse to abuse people or that there are even spaces that excuse and glorify it, but that is not what S&M is about, people I've met in kink spaces IME are actually better at consent than non-kinky people.

For example there is a misconception that domination is something that just sort of sign up for with a random person who can immediately step over your boundaries and call it kink, that couldnt be further from the truth, domination is a delicate and trust-based relationship where in actuality the sub has all the control

@light Whats wrong with kinks in general?

@fredy_pferdi Simplex has an official mastodon you could mention lol. I'm all for political rehabilitation but I dont think theres anything he can do or say that would ever make it appropriate for him to continue holding the power he has again

Also sucking cock isn't an insult its a normal part of human experience, its a livelihood an expression of love and an amoral pleasure

In principle privacy cryptocurrencies like monero can sidestep censors

I wrote about monero from an anarchist perspective here
