Yeah, that's fair. I guess I just have a bit of a hair trigger for the anti-porn crowd missing the forest for the trees. They're not wrong, they're just a bit too focused a problem that's downstream from the real issue.
I'm not sure I'd lump myself into the anti-porn crowd, per se.
I acknowledge the dangers, I don't think it's a good thing, and I think the super pro-porn crowd are insane and broken people, but I've always defended it nonetheless, because I think the alternative - censorship and government interventionism - is a slippery slope to much worse things.
I don't like porn, but I think the issue is best addressed by discussion, not legislation, and I will always oppose criminalizing it. Just like I don't like the pro-porn crowd, I think the anti-porn crowd are retarded fanatics, who are on a very thin line to making things ever worse. This is one of those issues I'm somewhere in the middle on, and find myself arguing with both sides.
