How do you know that the women in your porn are consenting? - Lemmy.World

Websites like Pornhub knowingly hosted and profited from child pornography/CSAM [https://www.reuters.com/legal/transactional/lawsuits-claim-pornhub-visa-hedge-funds-profited-child-abuse-2024-06-14/] and trafficking [https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-67804156]. Pornhub is owned by Aylo, formerly MindGeek, which has a monopoly on the industry. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aylo] A lot of those “Girls Do Porn” videos were rape. [https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdca/pr/girlsdoporn-owner-michael-pratt-sentenced-27-years-sex-trafficking-hundreds-women] What percentage of your porn consumption are you okay with being rape?

What is any individual supposed to do about it? Find the home of the assailant and firebomb it? Report it to the police, who will also likely waive it as inconclusive?

I get the moral sentiment, but you’re talking about something that requires immense amounts of investigating, that only federal institutions can do anything about.

Like yeah, sexual slavery exists. Explain to me how to tell consenting from non-consenting porn with any accuracy and I’ll gladly start reporting videos. But virtue signaling without a plan of action is just guilt-tripping fear-mongering.

Isn’t social shaming “action”?

Maybe when someone posts that “blacked” meme, of Piper Perri surrounded by five men, point out 1) that the image is racist as shit, and 2) that Piper Perri’s boyfriend killed her baby, and that comments joking about this are common on her videos and discussions about her?

My first year teaching, we played “hangman” and the kids came up with their own words (I was stupid to allow this). One of them chose “Pornhub.” Maybe talking about jerking it should be something that isn’t so normalized that kids feel comfortable doing that?

You could also report porn that is suspicious in provenance? Ask your bros, if they bring up a porn star what they think about this issues?

Advocating for social change in the way we talk about these things isn’t “virtue signaling.”

you’re asking the right questions. unfortunately a lot of people are so porn-brained that they have to silence anyone who dares ask a question that might make their peepees go soft.

so many people would rather look the other way and ignore harm to women and children because it benefits them to not think about it.
