You know, there's there's various reasons, but 663 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 2: I think the core reason for a lot of people 664 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:55,760 Speaker 2: is like, you know, we we see we see pictures 665 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 2: of all these you know, dead children, and we're like, 666 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 2: this is very sad and it's very wrong, and it's 667 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 2: like they haven't. The social media is part of it, 668 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 2: but there's there's an emotional response to seeing civilians, especially children, 669 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 2: horribly injured or killed. And I think that that's a 670 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 2: very human response and it's like outrage. Yeah, yeah, these 671 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 2: these headlines. It's like, and I think even the stuff 672 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,400 Speaker 2: that like Nancy Pelosi says about how you know this 673 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 2: is backed by Vladimir Putin or the Chinese government or whatever, 674 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 2: it's like they can't even acknowledge the possibility that some 675 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 2: number of people, probably the majority of people, are like, wow, 676 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:40,920 Speaker 2: killing kids. That's very sad, you know. 677 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:45,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they're oh, I I've been incentivized to look 678 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:46,479 Speaker 3: the other way this whole. 679 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. 680 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:50,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, they're just like they're like parents who are like, 681 00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 1: don't you remember when you were young, Like you used 682 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,320 Speaker 1: to believe everything we said? 683 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:58,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, exactly. 684 00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:01,759 Speaker 3: You used to eat gummy candies of our warplanes.

Yeah, it's and I think 689 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:20,840 Speaker 3: that's what's like really interesting when I look at this 690 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 3: all is we talk about how increasingly more engaged and 691 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,399 Speaker 3: intelligent these younger generations are becoming, and like I'm wondering 692 00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 3: if they're I mean, they must be looking at this 693 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 3: they're like, dude, we've got a fucking like these kids 694 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:36,839 Speaker 3: are getting smarter and more radical.

It's 878 00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:11,640 Speaker 3: like I'm telling you people about the fucking human body. 879 00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:14,560 Speaker 3: But you can run ads where it's like, hey man, 880 00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:17,200 Speaker 3: you want to fuck your step mom right this way, 881 00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:20,239 Speaker 3: see her fully nude with this chatbot. And it's not 882 00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 3: clear what like Meta's next move is here. I mean, 883 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:25,919 Speaker 3: they may just do like a massive purge of those 884 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:28,040 Speaker 3: kinds of accounts like they did with like sex worker 885 00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:30,560 Speaker 3: accounts too. But apparently a lot of the reason these 886 00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:33,640 Speaker 3: platforms have cracked down on sex work too, even recently, 887 00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:36,439 Speaker 3: is because of a sex trafficking bill that became long 888 00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 3: twenty eighteen, which basically made platforms responsible for like what 889 00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:45,000 Speaker 3: is posted. Yeah, but then that also unfortunately led to 890 00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:49,120 Speaker 3: like the restriction of consensual sex work or like consensual 891 00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:52,759 Speaker 3: sex work being categorized as trafficking like overall in the 892 00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:53,840 Speaker 3: online world. 893 00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:57,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, and sex workers told us at that time. I'm like, hey, 894 00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,000 Speaker 2: this is what they're trying to do here, you know, 895 00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:02,319 Speaker 2: but like this is obviously like to crack down on 896 00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:05,319 Speaker 2: consensual sex work and a fitty thing. It's going to 897 00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:09,600 Speaker 2: and danger trafficking victims even more, you know, And that 898 00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:13,240 Speaker 2: has come to be the case. But you know, people 899 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:17,359 Speaker 2: don't listen to sex workers when, you know, when they 900 00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:20,000 Speaker 2: express what's going to be good for them, you know, 901 00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:20,920 Speaker 2: law wise or not. 902 00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:26,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, sex workers are maybe the most kind of undervalued 903 00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:30,960 Speaker 1: human beings in like the US mainstream media. Like they 904 00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:35,880 Speaker 1: just aren't counted as human beings in a lot of cases. 905 00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:39,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, which is weird because it's like everybody is and 906 00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:43,160 Speaker 2: I won't say everybody like you know, but there's I 907 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:47,280 Speaker 2: would say that most men in the United States are 908 00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:51,440 Speaker 2: engaging with pornography on some level or another. Like I 909 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:54,320 Speaker 2: certainly haven't very met very many men who aren't watching 910 00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:58,560 Speaker 2: like porn sometimes at least and also a lot of 911 00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:00,920 Speaker 2: women and also a lot of non binary people. But 912 00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:03,600 Speaker 2: you know, it's like this product that you know, so 913 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:07,160 Speaker 2: many people are consuming, but the workers it's fine to 914 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 2: just you know, treat them as horribly as possible. 915 00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:13,200 Speaker 3: Right exactly, Because again, yeah, it's like it's like, well, 916 00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:15,880 Speaker 3: you know, that's in line with the patriarchal aspects of 917 00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:19,200 Speaker 3: this country and also like the puritanical ones. It's like, well, 918 00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:23,120 Speaker 3: I mean like if women are suffering or then maybe 919 00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:26,160 Speaker 3: that's okay. Yeah, but yeah, for something that we call 920 00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:29,560 Speaker 3: the oldest profession, we should I feel like give a 921 00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:33,359 Speaker 3: little bit more respect to it. Yes, this profession has 922 00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:35,799 Speaker 3: been around for a long time, so there's a lot 923 00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:37,439 Speaker 3: of momentum to sex work. 924 00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:38,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. 925 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:42,200 Speaker 1: We talked about how like this platform that is a 926 00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:46,799 Speaker 1: competitor to only fans called Fanview that specializes in like 927 00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:52,920 Speaker 1: AI models, right, is like doing incredibly well.

In the history of America, 932 00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:17,800 Speaker 1: laws and legislation protecting sex work has been shockingly absent. 933 00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:23,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, but how quickly too.
