    Dear junk arousal detox followers and friends,

    As we all know, our platform is attacked by the tobacco lobby of the digital age, a.k.a. cyberporn lobbys, but with more aggresive tactics than the ones tobacco lobbys ever used in the last century, by sawing doubt through agnotology (science of misinforming people, google the term). Agnotology tactics were, e.g., the tobacco lobby buying PhDs to state that nicotine is not addictive or that lung cancer and tobacco is just correlation, not causation, because there are no control groups, just as the porn lobbys now do with PIED (pon induced erectile dysfunction), PIPE (premature ejaculation), PIDE (delayed ejaculation), PIA (anorgasmia), PISA (sexual anorexia or low libido), etc. And this is just concerning sexual dysfunctions, we could also expand on causal strong associations between porn and aggression, sexual and human trafficking, depression and mental health problems, damage to romantic relationships, and a quite long etc. More resources here (check interviews besides papers):

    Truthaboutporn.com

    I have ever known on the alcohol industry aiming to destroy AA, the gambling (or now cybergambling) industry attacking gamblers anonymous, or even the videogame industry harassing our arousal addicted cousins, the problematic videogamers and Game Quitters. On the other hand, our founder Alex Rhodes and our community are threatened with the intention of deplatform us, so their business is an absolute cage for hypofrontal beings without possible escape. Join the resistence of true human beings.

    More info of the war directed towards us.

    Secular scientific platform yourbrainonporn run by Gary Wilson (a resource that personally has helped me tremedously and many others as well), is also being attacked in order to be silenced just for exposing the science of the arousal junk and fast food known as cyberporn. Do you imagine junk food companys intentionally trying to silence a pro healthy food webpage for just revealing the science of junk food and obesity?

    We are in that place, our position is totally exceptional in what has been called limbic capitalism (google the term). The dark tactics certainly shocked me when I first read about the situation, because it is a human right to reclaim our brains, hence our freedom, from vicious addictions harming individual brains, partners and society as a whole. I feel our generation is much more lost and nihilist than previous ones. If you aim to have a purpose, a fair cause to fight for, make your own contribution against this public health emergency, as that is trulh what it is and progressively recognized at the political level.

    After signing, do not forget to share in your social media accounts, WhatsApp groups, etc., give it as much diffusion as you can. You can ask relatives (parents, uncles, etc.) as older generations will surely support, they did not have to grow up with this toxin in their natural environment and thus will display natural sympathy.

    More info on the lobby aiming to deplatform us. Personally reminds me to an episode of the new Cosmos series where some PhDs buyed by the lead industry stated that lead was not neurotoxic and poised no problem at all to protect their massive profits. They lost the battle (watch the episode), that is one of the most beatuful virtues of science: at the end facts must be recognized, for truth is above economical interests.
    We face a new type of digital neurotoxin called internet porn. Same agnotology tactics are being followed to disinform the public opinion and protect the billions of dollars moved by tube owners , but the same ending will occur as neuroscience is a factual science.

    Donald Hilton, MD, author of several papers on the neurological effects of internet porn (hypofrontality, addiction) was also attacked by the lobbys. In case you do not know who he is, I put this conferencd, he is an excellent divulgator and you can easily tell his humanist interest to address this self destructive plague.



    P.S. it was this episode, you have the title.

    Sorry but I think this is just a easy money grab! By giving money the harassments will end? Don't make me laugh!

  5. I truly don't understand the motivation of Prause, Ley and the others trying to deplatform NoFap and YBOP. YBOP especially: Gary Wilson is always explicitly evidence-only with his articles, nothing he says isn't backed up by extensive science; that's admittedly less the case here.

    Really - and I don't want to believe this, but I see no other explanation - it must be conspiracy. I can't see any reason for Prause and Ley to go to these lengths to silence all credible anti-porn speech besides that they stand to gain significantly from it. Occam's razor says this is simply because they're getting paid by the porn industry - but even this brings up so many questions. Just who is this "they" anyway? Who's pulling the strings from the top? Need I remind that as far as I see this is the most logical and tame reasoning. It's well and truly fucked.

  6. Yeah, the lawsuit isn't going to do anything. Sorry Alex, but no amount of legal action is going to stop this situation. Prause can easily continue under a different name, or someone else can take her place.
     
  7. great way to put it! I contributed.
    ok so what do you propose?
     
  8. That's the issue. These people are persistent, and nothing simple is going to stop them. The ideal situation is where we have a second tobacco awareness campaign, where the anti-porn sentiment becomes mainstream. Because these people hide behind misinfo and lack of understanding. Most people don't know about the ills of porn, and because of that Prause, Ley and the rest can flourish. By defaming every public figure who is a porn-skeptic, the entire anti-porn movement loses it's credibility. That's exactly why they're doing what they're doing - so far as I can tell: to keep this whole unfortunate little situation under wraps. The ruined lives are just unfortunate collateral damage.

    But if everyone knows they're talking bullshit, they lose their power.

    But that's exactly what NoFap is, isn't it? An anti-porn awareness campaign? So is YBOP, FTND, the ventures of Noah Church... What are we doing wrong? That's the million dollar question. Because if we can get our message out there, that being concerned about porn is more than just religious fundamentalism or ultra-conservatism, there will be no point in keeping up the defamation; they will have already lost.

    Again, forgive me if this reeks of conspiracy - I'm not usually one for conspiracy theories - but this is the only explanation I can fathom.

    David Ley is also a demonstrable lobby and close ally of Prause, hence, the digital porn industry.


    https://www.yourbrainonporn.com/rel...t-porn-addiction-and-sex-addiction-are-myths/

    The greatest threat that we posit to the porn lobby, I think, is that most people here in NoFap (including myself) are atheists/agnostics and I bet leaning towards politically liberal positions (statistically speaking). Certainly not all people here, and that is great because diversity and heteregenous cultural backgrounds make our common message (porn is harmful to you in the long run, a vice just as tobacco, also causing ED but quicker than by clotting arteries, by directly impairing neural arousal mechanisms) reachable to larger segments of the population.
    Thus, because cyberporn is a completely different beast than traditional last century porn, with endless novelty hijacking the dopamine system, similar to cybergambling or videogames, after millenials alerted as guinea pigs of this Black Mirror social experiment on the effects, lobbys followed this progression.
    1. We are religious fanatics. Religious moral incongruence is all that is happening here (Grubbs). Disproved (both).
    2. Dopamine drives porn, but that is no different than enjoying watching puppets (this was actually stated by Prause). Hence porn is not addictive. Disproved (45 studies, neuron cells affected being the same ones that drug abusers activate).
    3. Porn does not cause ED or any other sexual dysfunction. (After years of evidence, anecdotal and actually researched, including Gary Wilson coauthored paper in 2016). OK, there is ED, but is masturbation induced, NOT porn induced. And maybe those with PIED should not reproduce (that is a David Ley tweet). Disproved (7 causality papers).

    And after all of this failed.

    Ok, let's create an agnotology webpage and defame Alex Rhodes, Donald Hilton, Gabe Deem, Noah Church and Gary Wilson, and actually, let's close YBOP so only our agnotology pseudocientific webpage remains as the only available "resource"[?]. In our cousins, gaming addiction, to my knowledge, Cam Adair has never been harassed, defamed or cyberattacked by providing helpful resources to recovery from another arousal addiction (as Zimbardo calls them). And no question the videogame industry is big business. What happens here with cyberporn? Well, besides the obvious (economical profits of MindGeek), I have my personal theory (check my post porn a supernormal tool to destroy our species).

    I don't really get it.

    USA has one of the strongest laws in the world regarding freedom of speech. Even nazi forums are legal in USA, that would otherwise be banned instantly in most other countries.

    So how would it ever be possible to shut down this forum/platform?

    Money-wise I think it is best to invest in anti-DDOS services. Technically, that seems like the biggest threat.
