Communism is not about removing excess. Communism is about redistributing excess to the proletariat.

  • Furthermore, this line between "private" and "public" is completely arbitrary. What if someone DMed someone else and through that arranged a transaction involving explicit pictures? This is "private" but neither of us would support it being legal. I do not think that running a Discord server where consenting adults upload explicit pictures on should be illegal. If people are guaranteed living standards, them selling their bodies will naturally wither away, no blanket bans required.

  • I disagree with the idea that providing resources for exploited people to leave the sex industry and making it not profitable would require a full blanket ban on public explicit material. What this ban will do, however, is demonize people who want to express their sexuality publicly by telling them that their way of expression is incompatible with socialist ideals when it really isn't. Such a ban will not stop at the few but inevitably seep its way into general culture, perpetuating ideas that sexuality is shameful.

  • I would also like to bring up how queer rights in the West only got codified when it became useful in the West to do so, ie. doing that to create a rift between Global North queer people and oppressed people in the Global South, because now imperialist wars could be framed as the pro-queer Global North fighting an evil anti-queer Global South, and turning Global North queer people into a front for imperialism rather than a bulwark of solidarity with queer people in the Global South

    1. I would say someone who posts explicit pictures or videos of themselves on a platform like a public 18+ Discord server and rejects any offer of money or any other material compensation

    2. I believe it is a method of control over women because the market for adult content still denies women control over their own bodies. This is why women as I described in point 1 are still looked down upon inside of patriarchy because they are expressing purely their own sexuality and can stop at any moment with no consequence. And as capitalism commodifies everything, it has also commodified human sexuality. There is a material interest under capitalism for monetizing your sexual expression, as there is for monetizing everything. That's why I'm explicitly for banning monetized 18+ content rather than 18+ content in general, to draw a much clearer line distinguishing expressing your own sexuality purely for fun and doing it to satisfy material interests.

  • I mean openly expressing your sexuality without expectation of anything in return.

    I believe that the problem is right now that the patriarchy has only legitimized 18+ content done for money because it is still a method of control, just replacing morals with money.

    People who express themselves sexually online while rejecting any compensation should be allowed to do so.

  • I do think that expression of your sexuality without expectation of anything in return does exist right now and will exist in the future.

  • I do think that specifically 18+ content done for money should be banned because full consent cannot be guaranteed when money changes hands, but I personally have no problem with 18+ content produced and distributed with no expectation or desire for monetization.
