This is a good thread. I cannot understate this: the sex angle is fundamentally a distraction. This is not the moral issue you think it is. This is about censorship and surveillance, period. If people get caught up in debating sex, they’ve lost the plot.https://twitter.com/MistressBlunt/status/1429131905732071427 …

Payment processors pulling out of pornhub was in response to sex trafficking panic. the BBC investigation shows the news was trying to paint OF as sexually exploitative. And every day I get strangers telling me I'm a whore and a shitty person for my job. This is a big movement.

You can see this elsewhere in how other countries have instituted regulations around sex work like the Nordic model. Has nothing to do with surveillance, everything to do with people treating sex workers as exploited victims who need saving from the bad johns.

I didn't take her to be saying that moralizing abt sex has nothing to do with the pressures behind the banning, but that when people on twitter who are discussing the ban come only from the angle of "this is good because porn bad" they're confused about what's most important here

and what's at stake here etc
