there’s a tendency to take things that are bad and find the weakest forms that embody them—thinking specifically about the recent article about cuck porn, where it seems to blame porn (an industry which often has trouble even getting payment processors and banks to do business with them) for the behavior of right wingers (who have significant power over how the united states itself spends its money). it critiques the idea of tying transsexuality to sissy hypno, but then deploys the same type of rhetoric against the right wing. like there’s some hidden, “dirty” reason underlying this thing that appears to be legitimate, and that connection is supposed to undermine its legitimacy somehow. in reality, porn is a business that tries to provide what people want; it can certainly give some good insight into people’s desires, but it is an effect, not a cause, of these desires
