      HERE'S SOMETHING NOT ABOUT BREXIT BUT (MAYBE) WORSE: I wrote about No Nut November, the semen-withholding, month-long challenge with its roots in violent misogyny:https://www.newstatesman.com/science-tech/social-media/2018/11/no-nut-november-insidious-internet-challenge-encouraging-men-not …

      One other thing, I do not think your quote from @xhamstercom that the "#NoFap movement had its roots in anti-gay, anti-woman, anti-semitic blogs" is true at all. I don't speak for @NoFap but I am an active member there and they are incredibly diverse.

      So here's the thing, and the point I think both you and NoFap are missing: it is possible for NoFap mods/admins to be well-meaning and not bigoted, AND ALSO for the anti-wanking movement to have clear and troubling links to bigotry. Example...

      The other day, NoFap had to ask its Twitter followers to quit being anti-semitic. https://twitter.com/NoFap/status/1060298325088522242 … Here are some of the responses...pic.twitter.com/Y5AudQD9GQ

      @girlonthenet are you sure none of your followers are crazy antisemites? I don't think that proves that #NoFap has its roots in anything at all. I can tell you that on the @NoFap site itself anything like that would lead to instant banning as soon as it was seen.

      See previous tweets - it is possible to say that NoFap discourages this, while also admitting that it *is* a problem. Also I can honestly (and gladly!) say I have never had that kind of response to a tweet.
