What
You're conflating two arguments
Porn has a lot of psychological effects on people and its mass sale has even more negative effects
I disagree
Prove me wrong
I can gather studies later on this topic
Tell me what the key argument of those studies is
Oh the effects of pornography on the psyche
Pornography has no negative effect on the psyche
But on the second point of mass consumption of porn, it has led to the proliferation of degeneracy in the masses
Prove the link between that
And that is more problematic
How is my porn consumption linked to displays of BDSM on the streets?
I'd say one major impact it has is the objectification of women
Well I have to disagree but I’ll have to look for studies to find out. But here is a heads up; don’t bother with abstracts, scientists will say shit in abstracts then when you look at the data it contradicts them
I've learned a lot about statistical fallacies, I can spot them from a mile away
Because it’s like this, my study says pedophilia is good (THIS IS JUST a hypothetical to show case my point) I won’t put that shit in my abstract because it’s very taboo
Correct, there is research proving positive effects of child sex with adults
Lmao ok stop baiting
This is real
@snake That's a phenomena known as Regime Flavor (coined by Alt Hype)
Yep the authoritarian view of knowledge etc
You can bend almost any research in favor of any argument if you only try hard enough
Especially in less researched fields
Oh that, ok I see your point
Academia is filled with bogus science
Basically, the scientists will try to go into analysis paralysis regarding dangerous topics like Race and IQ, just to appease the dominant view
Well I don’t want to get into a statistical debate about the effects of porn
I’ll be honest I’m not good with statistics sadly
But when you look into the data, it will point to a different direction
This is also a fault of the peer review system
Just as a general guideline: never trust new discoveries
What’s wrong with it?
@snake Returning to the previous point, do read the book I linked
Sexual liberation is a form of political control
I know science is very wonky on new discoveries
The trend is that the newer the research, the more likely it is to be faulty, or for the conclusion to be incorrect
