I don't think this is even remotely true, but I have to admit it sounds better than my theory, which is "humans are inherently kind of lazy and it turns out that once participating in your community becomes optional rather than necessary for your survival most of us would rather stay at home and play video games"

I get the appeal of thinking "humans are naturally harmonious social creatures who would never sit on the couch doomscrolling for six hours instead of meeting a friend or joining a club unless a mysterious and unknown agent forced them to do it". I just don't know how you've ever met a human being in your entire life and still believe it

Whenever they gave us one of those "read through ALL the instructions before you begin!" trick assignments in school where the steps lead you on an increasingly ridiculous goose chase until the final one tells you to just put your name on the paper and turn it in without doing anything else, I was always like, "Okay, but what's the point? Surely the REAL world won't be anything like this." And then I grew up and discovered that not only is the real world often exactly like that, some people won't even read the first line of the instructions even if they make perfect sense. And these people are called "co-workers"

“Violence was a profoundly fundamental part of Berlichingen’s identity. […] This was typical for men of his social class. In fact, it was the essence of chivalry. The modern sense of term, as a code of behavior for dashing, honorable knights, bears little resemblance to its medieval definition, the core of which was violence. Knights and nobles justified their existence as a social elite by fighting for acceptable causes; religious wars against Muslims or heretics were best, but a clever knight could turn almost any sort of conflict into a soul-burnishing positive. Knights were famously sensitive about their social standing, and an insult necessitated an aggressive response; otherwise, the offended party could hardly call himself a knight at all. Vengeance, anger, and drawn weapons were all basic parts of the knight’s experience and emotional tool kit.”

you could call the way people tend to ascribe power to pornography that it does not inherently possess the "pornography fetish" if you want to be really confusing and annoying
