I feel like you're replying to a completely different comment than to what I actually wrote.

I never said it should be banned because I find it "gross".

If two consenting adults want to do this kind of thing, more power to them. I even said that I get that some people like the way it feels.

And although JK Rowling and her ghouls might be jumping on this, it's not happening because of them. This is something that's been a long time coming, and is being pushed by medical professionals in response to the increase in young people being seriously injured and killed while doing this.

Just because I'm not with you, doesn't mean that I'm against you. That's the kind of psychotic black-and-white thinking that Rowling really embodies.

    .

    Strangulation stuff, though, just looks overly-aggressive and rapey.

    Pick one

    When you come into these spaces and try to make consensual kinks problematic, you might not even understand that is advocating AGAINST them, but that's what you are doing.

    Also, you just admitted you believe the made-up bullshit about "savijg the kids," and the banning of porn for the kids' sake is literally alt-right propaganda.

    There's no "study" you can show that makes it acceptable to attack and ban human expression.

    You have the option to force ignorance on everyone, or educate everyone, and you are advocating for forced ignorance.

    It's like you are the perfect example of how well intentioned people fall into fascist beliefs out of ignorance.

    I said that I don't get the appeal and explained why it doesn't do it for me.

    I didn't call for a ban on the porn. I didn't say that people shouldn't do it within their own homes. I didn't say anything about "saving the kids".

    I literally just provided the reasons that the UK government is doing this, as stated by the UK government. It's not an alt-right conspiracy.

    It's like you are the perfect example of how passionate people can come across as psychotic by projecting wildly onto strangers on the internet.

    If you don't want those things to be banned, you need to recognize how your rhetoric supports the banning of those things.

    Either that or stop repeating them because someone else points it out for you.

    There isn't a reason for you to advocate for the devil. So don't do it.

    Are you actually insane?

    My original post was me saying that I'm surprised choking porn is so popular, that it's not my thing and explained why.

    That was it.

    Every reply since that has been me correcting you, because you keep accusing me of saying and wanting things that I didn't and don't.

    I'm not playing devil's advocate, I'm just trying to defend myself in response to your accusations, of being pro-censorship, pre-fascist, and of saying things that I didn't actually say.

    Read the posts again. I'm not your enemy.
