If you found out Disneyland employees raped one out of every thousand guests then saying "I understand you might not like Disneyland but why not let other people enjoy it?" Wouldn't be a great argument. I don't think companies should profit off of child, revenge, and rape pornography and if they can't figure out how to run their platform such that they aren't doing that, then they should be penalized or shut down.
This statement buries the lede; MindGeek profits off porn, but it isn't clear to me that "child pornography, revenge porn, and actual rape pornography" are the actual money makers for the company. Is it the case that they are actively distributed and profiting off of said content, or are they just deficient in moderating the platform.
The distinction is important, if all it is is that they are not moderating the platform, the Facebook, Instagram and TikTok have far more cause to be deplatformed by Visa than MindGeek.
MindGeek's platforms gets billions of impressions per day, and I find it hard to believe that most of the world is consuming child porn.
There is also decent evidence that proliferation of porn tends to reduce the number of rapes.
Of course Child Abuse should be banned but it already is and there are already copious laws against it, which could be brought to bear against pornhub if they really facilitate it. However payment providers are starting to regulate even normal consensual adult porn now, which I definitely object to.
It has no more of an impact on you than if someone else spends their nights playing video games.
If you have a problem with it existing that is your fault and not the fault of other people. But that is an internalized problem for you.
It's unclear to me how you'd think the norms and cultural practices of a society don't affect someone living in that society, unless you believe everyone is completely atomized. If everyone is a junkie, and I'm sober, my life is still markedly different living amongst junkies. Just like if a devout Muslim moves from Saudi Arabia to San Francisco their life will be different, even if they maintain their Muslim practices.
If everyone spends their nights playing video games, they'll be tired all day, talking about video games all the time, and I may have difficulty making friends since I'm not into video games and prefer to spend my nights sleeping.
But muh Marvel movies! /s
