It's the other way around chief, radicalized young men seek out extreme porn because they ain't getting any of that vanilla loving.
And the way to getting that is properly educating them on consent and treating their partner with the equal love and respect they yearn for. -
Which of these ones you think is more likely?
- the police head reported the results of a scientific study that explores the correlation between crimes and porn preferences
- some idiot boomer finally managed to visit pornhub and was shocked by what they found
(not saying the boomer would be the police head - I don't know him and for all I know he's a person of at least average intelligence)
-
Therefore, we need more intrusive surveillance, right?!

I thought it was the gays, oh wait no its the transes, hang on we're back to the 1500s and are just saying "it's smut". It's very "violent video games turn men into violent monsters".
Want to really know what's radicalising young men: a mixed hangover of "the provider role" clinging on, two decades of economic implosion, and normalised sexism aimed at addressing systemic injustices. That's how you end up with radicalised young men.

Lack of any punishment for antisocial behavior for young men in Ireland is radicalising them. Garda doesn't even try to arrest any of them when they acting like shit because they are getting released anyway.

Punishment, treatment, family support, victim support, anything would be nice!

apparently they gotta follow uk policy, word for word, bar for bar.

Irish lads better be prepared for the government to be taking away your wanking licences.
An Armalite in one hand, and a tissue box in the other.

~50 years of legal porn and society still hasn't collapsed.

Every ISP and device has built in parental features.

Porn doesn't cause men to become violent any more than video games do. There's no study I'm aware of or a direct link to show causation other than the sensationalization of the topic.
This feels like just another excuse to seize control over the levers of privacy the people of a country have access to.

I remember hearing this argument for videogames 🙄

I wonder if certain... genres of adult content (such as female dominance and lesdom) would be "extreme porn" and/or "violence against women" according to his (and whoever shares his) worldview... Guess these people don't know how there are different... "entertainment subcultures".Also, the obvious was already said throughout the comment section: just another justification for things such as what's happening with itch.io and Steam, alongside the KYC requirement that's been implemented in many places worldwide. It's tiring, really tiring to watch these things unfolding in real time across the globe.

Oh lesbian bdsm has a history of being particularly cracked down on as "violence against women." The other option would be for lawmakers and academics to meet with communities for sapphic sadomasochism (and for women involved in bdsm as a whole, straight submissive women also deserve protection from lawmakers seeking to protect them) and to try to find paths forward that create a safer and more free world.

That's not really convincing and leaves me entirely unsure which is the more likely explanation:
More like:
Pretty much
I'm going to go for 3. The vintage stuff can be really gross and misogynistic sometimes. Which is what you'd expect from the era depicted in Mad Men.
