Large Hadron Collider could be an interesting candidate. It’s not very visible, but it’s unique, gigantic, and insulated from damage

I’m announcing I have put $1 towards getting a new set of tires for my car

Same reason anything else is. It’s big money. Porn is a multi billion dollar industry.

As for why “extreme” porn is so “normalized” I think it’s more because it’s stigmatized ironically. Have you ever had an in person conversation about why there’s so much step family porn? No of course not because then both people would be acknowledging they watch porn for one. So the social factors that would guide things are totally absent.

In this particular context regulatory capture and political donations is the unseen bullshit of the claim. Corporations DO make the rules

Maybe so. If both are ok, then what’s the claim of immorality?

I would agree it’s just a better experience for me personally. If I use a product extensively I would prefer to pay for it to remove the ads. But it doesn’t affect the creator’s compensation so far as I can tell.

But if I subscribe, I don’t see ads, they don’t get ad revenue; they get subscription fees. I don’t subscribe, they get ad revenue but not subscriptions. Its not both, there is no denial of pay

I mean you can believe paying is better than watching ads for your own experience. But the morality argument about whether they make their money through ad revenue vs subscriptions is pretty dubious.

I would only add to do this also when you are not feeling this way. In my experience it’s very hard to make this happen if I only try to roll it out when I’m already feeling mad. Doing some daily meditation for 10-15 minutes is the only way I’ve had any success being able to engage that when I really need it. Also it’s nice to be able to step back and recognize good emotions / reactions.

I mean, if it’s good data with good analysis. Even then there could still be quite a lot to debate

I’m not really following here tbh. Articles might be wrong and so…. something? Sure simply pasting any old link isn’t inherently proving anything. One would have to assume the link is being provided because the poster thought the content of the article was good.
