    under 16

    Kids under 16 being banned because “sex bad” is dumb. A kid who is seeking out porn is mature enough to handle it. Part if “the magic of childhood” used to be finding your uncle’s stash of nudie mags.

      Gonna be real with you chief -

      Somebody should have probably stopped me from going to LoversLab as a teenager and seeing beastiality and necrophilia.

      There’s a middle ground. While the government probably isn’t in the position to figure it out, the abundance of extreme porn that is completely accessible to kids is not good either.

      That‘s different from stumbling upon hardcore BDSM porn and being groomed and radicalized by failed discord mindset coaches. If the playboy mags from back then had IRA propaganda and neonazi meeting invitations in them, those mags would‘ve been completely banned. You can‘t do that with the internet, so atleast make children not have to deal with this troubled reality before their brain has evolved enough.
