RE: About Alexa Nova, who newly introduced herself as a porn queen with disgusting images...and a sicker mind on steemit.

in #steemit8 years ago (edited)

Banning something you don't like, or think is harmful is not the solution. This would open the door to banning everything.
I think a better solution is a section for things NSFW, not just a tag.

Sort:  

Perhaps even future capabilities for higher SP users to be able to re-categorize some posts into a NSFW section. A subsection under flag?

Well this opens it up to witchcraft, racial hatred and violent blogs...I think some categories need to be banned by intelligent whales! And by the way porn is violence...and can lead to child porn and rape as academics have shown who have interviewed pedophiles in jail who claim that they tried sex with children first on porn sites and then in real life, even though initially they were repelled by the idea.

There is no need for bans unless there is evidence of fraud or aggression. Censorship is a dangerous thing. Even flagging items you dislike is a dangerous tactic. I have seen people lose Facebook access because people who disagreed with their posts used the reporting system maliciously over political arguments rather than actual violations of any terms of service, for example. That is a childish temper tantrum rather than a rational response.

FACEBOOK BANS PORN!!!! Are they childish???
You are misconstruing facts!!!

I love sex in connection with intimacy as an expression of the deepest love between 2 people, not an ugly banging and grinding affair.

Ugliness is subjective but you have made it quite clear that you are unable to comprehend that. Pornography is just someone taking an image in whatever form of people having sex or some other sexuality. If pornography is wrong then by that logic the act itself must be wrong otherwise what are you objecting to?

Pornography is just an excuse for violence and the humiliation of women.

Based on what? The claims of some woman whom you have never met but found in an online search on the Guardian website? I find your views deeply sexist towards men. Essentially you are telling "all men" who watch or view pornography what their motivations are. The same generalisation in regards to women would likely offend you. Further you take no account of the women who work within the industry of their own free will. You just dismiss those people and harass them because they don't share your distorted view.

Most men according to research I posted later here say that men who participate in pornography hate women.

Again overgeneralisation, based on something which is as far from research as you can get - a newspaper interview with an anti-porn bigot. Mind telling me how this woman determined that all "men who participate in pornography hate women"?

Generally you have shown your lack of knowledge, ignorance and intolerance. I am glad you have shown your true colours though. We don't need people like you spreading their intolerance around Steemit.

I respect scholars I am afraid...and it is obvious to me you need the last word, so I will let you have it. I would just like to add that you are quite arrogant to think you can speak for Steemit. All of us can, not just you.

Stick to Facebook then if you prefer their policies and censorship. Many of us are here because this is not Facebook.

Surprised that you endorse this filth...@cryptofiend. Thought better of you!

I thought better of you too. If you think pornography is filth then you must think sex is filth too. You must also dismiss a large amount of art which would be filth under your definition. It is hypocrisy and it belongs in the Victorian era. Nobody is forcing you to like pornography - if you are against it don't watch it.

I love sex in connection with intimacy as an expression of the deepest love between 2 people, not an ugly banging and grinding affair. Pornography is just an excuse for violence and the humiliation of women. Most men according to research I posted later here say that men who participate in pornography hate women.

You are misreading what I wrote.

Porn being violence is an opinion. Such as, boxing is violence.
Racial hatred would get flagged by users, the author rep would plummet, and the post become invisible on Steemit.
I understand where you are coming from, but I disagree with your "solution".

Are you suggesting porn is a sport?

I was not. Don't assume I am condoning porn, just Steemit.

I want to know that Steemit is NOT condoning porn!

Witchcraft is not real, like all religions.
