FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Katie Bloomquist [email protected] We at SWOP-USA are disheartened, disappointed, and furious to hear that yet another advertising platform that sexworkers use to screen clients and advertise their services has been seized by the FBI. Online advertising services like that of Backpage serve several necessary functions for sex workers – 1.they connect workers with clients, who pay

We at SWOP-USA are disheartened, disappointed, and furious to hear that yet another advertising platform that sexworkers use to screen clients and advertise their services has been seized by the FBI.

Online advertising services like that of Backpage serve several necessary functions for sex workers – 1.they connect workers with clients, who pay the bills 2.they help keep sex workers safe by allowing sex workers to screen and verify clients with other providers before meeting 3.they can allow for establishing advance boundaries and types of behavior before meeting a client 4.they can shield sex workers from police abuse, arrest and violence experienced more often by street-based sex workers (due to more contact with law enforcement).

Attempting to deter sex workers from their jobs by removing advertising and screening platforms is akin to pushing sex work “underground” and in the streets – where workers have less power in relation to their clients and where sex workers are at greater risk of arrest and police violence. Street-based sex workers who need support are often unable to connect with social services – Backpage, like other websites that came before it such as MyRedBook.Com, and Rentboy, helped close this gap by making screening, verification of clients, and police abuse much less likely to occur (until the online sting operations begun, but that is another statement piece).

The removal of Backpage is another example of state-sanctioned violence against the sex work community and their families. To do this in the name of anti-trafficking is absurd, as this drives trafficking further underground and makes it more difficult to access the most marginalized members of any group of people – whether they be exploited or not.

We fear that the shut down of Backpage is related by the recent anti-trafficking legislation (SESTA/FOSTA), however, this legislation has not been signed into law so it remains unclear what the relationship may be. Backpage was initially sued in 2016 by Senator Kamala Harris, whom you can contact here to express your feelings to about it.

Shutting down advertising websites and punishing those who attempt to make sex work safer serves to push sex workers further into the shadows and cuts sex workers off from vital social services, from each other, and increases vulnerability to violence.

We at SWOP-USA stand with our sex worker community now and always and will do everything within our power to fight back against these disastrous shutdowns and raids. With love and solidarity, Katie and the SWOP-USA Board of Directors

in superman adventures #19, there’s a villain named multi-face who can convincingly disguise himself as anyone, even tricking dna tests and x-ray vision. Superman initially can’t stop him

and the only reason he gets caught is because multiface decides to disguise himself as, of all people, CLARK KENT i’m screaming

[loislane]

why do villains always mess up so badly

PewDiePie, YouTube’s biggest star, is leaning into his new, far-right following

When Felix “PewDiePie” Kjellberg, YouTube’s most lucrative, popular superstar, uploaded a video featuring a banner with the words “Death to all Jews,” along with a man dressed as Jesus saying, “Hitler did absolutely nothing wrong,” he insisted it was jokes made in bad taste. 

After losing his partnership with Disney, Kjellberg apologized, saying he was just poking fun at the “modern world.”

But attempts to distance himself from his message didn’t deter the so-called “alt-right” from accepting him as one of their own, nor did Kjellberg’s insistence that he wanted nothing to do with them.

Kjellberg may not support them, but in the few short months since his anti-Semitism scandal, far-right celebrities have become Kjellberg’s favorite new bedfellows. Read more (7/26/17)
