The porn industry is exploitative and creates social problems. So does every industry under capitalism, the cosmetic industry creates pressures especially on young women / girls and profits from unsafe work conditions in poor countries.
Your problem isn't porn, it's capitalism. Individually abstaining won't change that.
I think the way porn affects a persons psychology provides a strong argument for why individuals should abstain from porn. Especially for young men who are exposed to what is essentially a drug from a very young age, its a bit of a wilder take but I think the accessibility to porn plays a huge role in the docility of the imperial core.
You mean more as a personal advice instead of a moral imperative? Then I'd probably agree with you. Like I'd encourage someone to hit the gym / to eat healthy, but don't shame people for not doing those things.
Yeah I wouldn't go around pushing it like its a moral failure if you use porn, shaming is just counterproductive and wont lead anyone to better themselves.
Specific example I was thinking of was girls do porn, and that wasn't "technically illegal" it was rape and sex trafficking.
edit: "every industry under capitalism" is not an argument I like much. There are differences, and people should be able to recognize that the nature of porn and how it relates to society leave it very open for scummy people to take advantage in horrible ways.
