Porn is supported by the Elite to make us weak.

  1. They are extremely well organized, as I said before. All of the major porn tube sites are run by the company MindGeek.

    You're applying hindsight bias to this — porn became popular because it is 1. popular, 2. addictive, and 3. a way to make money. Our desire for it drives this. It should not be surprising that monopolies form in this, they form in any unregulated industry...
     
  3. I never said that the Mindgeek company was specifically why porn became widespread. Nevertheless, they've said things to the effect that they are trying to undermine traditional moral values. So there is a singular source to some of the problems we see today.

    Just read the Wikipedia page about Mindgeek. That company has a really interesting history. They've always been involved in porn, but it looks like a lot of their revenue has been generated through lawsuits, tax evasion, and even via distributing malware to people who use their services
    (like Pornhub or Youporn, both of which they own)

    There is enough addictiveness, availability, and money to made by porn to make it a self sustaining system without the need for any elites to push it. However, I am fully aware that not watching porn and no PMO makes me stronger than those who do and gives me an edge over those who do. I've been noticing lately that porn is becoming more accepted in our culture and by women and feminists too. I don't suspect that this is intentional, but I think mass porn addiction gives feminists an edge because they are mostly women and LESS susceptible to its addictive and psychological destructive tendencies. I wouldn't be surprised if some are taking advantage of the mass addiction, but like I said before, there is enough money to be made and it's a product with enough demand that it is a completely self sustaining system. The system may be exploitable by some (including us who reject its power over us) but I will certainly say it didn't start that way, nor does it need to be propped up by the vague "elite". That's my two cents.

    Porn industry generates money. What evet generates money is part of any ELITE.
    It is just an economic thing and when something generates money business/countries will always
    promote it. The same way they promote tobacco, alcohol and war.
