These people refuse to accept reality. And before anyone calls me a prude or a puritan, let me explain. I'm not talking about any videos of filmed sex. Sex by itself is neutral. But the industry, the companies that produce it, and the sites are closely related to exploitation, sexual violence, the normalization of violence, and CSA. And believe me, we can see how porn influences what's happening now (or vice versa, how what's happening now is reflected in it). Anon was right to mention categories. Remember that there's an epidemic of violence against women and minorities right now, and we very often see violence against them in porn. "Sex tourism" to Asian countries is currently at its peak, and one of the most popular categories of porn is "Asian" right now. Categories featuring queer people are popular, and violence against them and objectification are also happening often right now. Also, most popular sites literally have a category called "teen", meaning most popular porn sites literally support and promote child abuse. And it's no secret that there's an epidemic of child abuse right now too. The way this industry and its sites work is literally harmful. It harms women, children, and minorities. People who deny this and still visit these sites (even if they don't watch anything horrific or violent) help child abusers and people involved in the sex trade continue what they do. It's a fact. And yes, I think people who ignore this are dangerous to society. And if they watch videos that promote violence, which is the majority of videos on these sites right now, they will definitely carry it out in real life. This has been proven. The more popular videos showing non-consensual choking of women during sex become, the more often it happens in real life. Also non-consensual. In recent years, there has indeed been a surge in such violence. Regularly watching material that depicts women and minorities as objects to be beaten, strangled, and who exist solely for the pleasure of cishet men will definitely lead to an increase in violence in real life. It's already happening. Some people just refuse to acknowledge reality.
