Love Kills Porn.

Discussion in 'Self Improvement' started by Battlemaster Lotus Praxis, Feb 29, 2016.

  1. Porn Kills Love.

    No doubt about it.

    What is the most straightforward, universal solution to overcome this addiction? Become more loving. Love yourself more, your inner pain, stress, emotions, just be kinder to yourself, don't play the victim to unbridled desires that lead you to watch porn, or don't use porn to escape from pain as it obviously only increases the pain afterwards. Love others by making an effort to not support their exploitation by not clicking on any porn at all. Doing this successfully once and for all is a matter of self improvement, for some this is a healing process and for others it could be a strengthening of the will or building of character.

    “Not all addictions are rooted in abuse or trauma, but I do believe they can all be traced to painful experience. A hurt is at the centre of all addictive behaviours. It is present in the gambler, the Internet addict, the compulsive shopper and the workaholic. The wound may not be as deep and the ache not as excruciating, and it may even be entirely hidden—but it’s there. As we’ll see, the effects of early stress or adverse experiences directly shape both the psychology and the neurobiology of addiction in the brain.”
    Gabor Maté, In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction



    Whatever path you choose, love for yourself and others is the ultimate antidote. This thread is what my Doctor ordered for recovery. Unadulterated doses of love, alongside the other awesome things I am doing on a daily basis.



    Many of the images to come are copied and pasted from the fabulous non-profit organization FTND's site:www.fightthenewdrug.org

    “The war mentality represents an unfortunate confluence of ignorance, fear, prejudice, and profit. ... The ignorance exists in its own right and is further perpetuated by government propaganda. The fear is that of ordinary people scared by misinformation but also that of leaders who may know better but are intimidated by the political costs of speaking out on such a heavily moralized and charged issue. The prejudice is evident in the contradiction that some harmful substances (alcohol, tobacco) are legal while others, less harmful in some ways, are contraband. This has less to do with the innate danger of the drugs than with which populations are publicly identified with using the drugs. The white and wealthier the population, the more acceptable is the substance. And profit. If you have fear, prejudice, and ignorance, there will be profit.”

  2. Well it looks like the media is beginning to see things in their proper light. Good, that is all I could ever hope for.

    Today's dose of self improving truth:

    [​IMG]

    This image is intended for heterosexual males obviously. If you are not a heterosexual male, or are female, I suppose a similar image of a man or woman saying something like "REAL HUMAN BEINGS DO NOT SEEK PIXELATED SEXUAL PARTNERS AND VIEW SEX AS THE END RESULT OF A RELATIONSHIP THAT HAS PROGRESSED TO A POINT OF PHYSICAL INTIMACY WITH LOVE AS THE FOUNDATION."

    'Keep it classy.'

    LYRICS:
    We're destroying your crown and your walls are crashing down. Wreak havoc.

    Humanity has put evil on a throne, destroying the walls we built to contain our hearts; barely keeping us alive.

    We've given power to the things that only wish to hold us down. It's time to wreak havoc.

    I can't even remember a time when I could stand up for myself. I won't give in, I'll never surrender. No more fear, only fight.

    I'm a slave, I'm a slave to nothing.

    We're destroying your crown (get up, get up) and your walls are crashing down (get up, get up)

    Wreak havoc.

    Now is our time to rise above the fire you've cast down on us. I hear the words that you say, but at the end of the day you'll never see me surrender.

    A kingdom reclaimed, the spawn of sin is shamed; reaching from the dirt as darkness falls beneath the Earth. Devouring souls of the ones who chose to stay behind; thrown into eternal prison. I'm the one who's still alive.

    Hell awaits the king of lies. The perverse will fall, the beast will burn alive. King of lies.

    I HOPE YOU ROT.

    We're destroying your crown (get up, get up) and your walls are crashing down (get up, get up)

    Im a slave , I'm a slave to nothing.

    'According to the UN, at any given time across the globe around 2.4 million people are victims of human trafficking. 58% of these cases are sex trafficking cases and an overwhelming 2/3 of these victims are women. The crime generates $32 billion a year, right on par with the profits made by the illegal trade of guns and drugs worldwide.'

    You Can't Stop Me

    [Lyrics by Mitch Lucker]

    And I will continue to move forward
    Crushing everything
    Diamond crusher and I am the hammer
    You’re worthless not me
    Living a lie that only I can see
    You’re worthless to me
    Saying that you are something you will never be
    The time is now
    To prove your worth
    Show the world
    The world for what it’s worth

    If you’re reckless and free, speak up sing this with me
    With me
    With me
    We’re all fucking free
    If you’re reckless and free, speak up sing this with me
    We’re free
    We’re free
    You can’t fucking stop me

    And as the world keeps moving forward, distorting everything
    Dream smasher
    Look to the sky and scream with me fuck this place
    We are free

    Your diamonds will crumble beneath my feet
    Your beliefs in nothing prove that you are weak
    And still symbolizing strength for your life choices makes me sick
    I am the diamond crusher
    I am the dream smasher

    If you’re reckless and free, speak up sing this with me
    With me
    With me
    We’re all fucking free
    If you’re reckless and free, speak up sing this with me
    We’re free
    We’re free
    You can’t fucking stop me
    You can’t fucking stop me
    I’m relentless you’ll see
    You can’t fucking stop me
    I’m the diamond crusher
    Dream smasher
    I’m the diamond crusher
    Dream smasher
    You can’t fucking stop me [6x fading]

  6. 'I wanna take down who's in power
    Like ground zero
    Two twin towers
    The president was a coward
    Trying to take what's ours
    Spend money on wars
    Watch bullets get showered
    But things ain't gonna change in a matter of hours
    Until we turn up at the White House
    Whole crowds of us
    These suits & ties couldn't walk in our trousers - nah
    It's riot gear when they surround us
    I'm a pioneer
    Hacktivist - we are the founders
    The sound of 25,000 voices raised in anger
    If only you could see it from our angle
    Another budget cut
    Another community centre shut
    Dismantled
    The system over-run by the power of the gun
    Families bleed left with no-one
    It's time for change
    Time to elevate to a higher place
    This world's gone insane
    What happened to the right side of the brain?
    This mask covers our face
    Stand up and say goodbye to this daylight robbery of lives
    The elite gotta do their time
    Set 'em up for the firing line
    Too quick to point the finger
    Too quick to pull the trigger
    Slaughter the innocent
    I see no sense

    We fight fire with fire
    We won't burn
    A middle finger for liars that won't learn
    We stand firm

    There's strength in numbers
    We're 99, they're one
    For the suits up high there's nowhere to hide or run
    We flow through the streets like blood
    Hats down, hoods up
    The system's fucked
    What I see is corrupt
    Learn who to trust
    H won't give up
    They don't move in our circle
    Stand up & listen
    We're breaking the rules
    Never fall, stay strong
    Eternal inferno
    We stand tall raising a torch
    Coz we got that lyrical force for the side that you walk
    Bodies lined out in chalk for supporting the cause
    We settle the score
    Fight! Coz this is our war

    We fight fire with fire
    We won't burn
    A middle finger for liars that won't learn
    We stand firm

    We will stand firm

    The system's over-run by the power of the gun
    Families bleed left with no-one
    It's time for change, time to elevate to a higher place
    The world's gone insane
    What happened to the right side of the brain?
    Straight
    Systems over-run by the power of the gun
    Families bleed left with no-one
    It's time for change, time to elevate to a higher place
    The world's gone insane
    What happened to the right side of the brain?'

    "Porn is full of ideas and practices that are completely opposite of what real relationships, real sex, and real love are like. Healthy relationships are built on equality, honesty, respect, and love. In porn, it’s the reverse; interactions are based on domination, disrespect, abuse, violence, and detachment. Not cool."

  7. Lyrics:
    Regenerate, regenerate this life
    Regenerate, regenerate this life
    We've returned to reclaim

    On this unstable ground we're laying faces down
    In a world that's sinking
    Our faith is put in the stars, not in each other's hearts
    In this world that's sinking

    Stop living for yourself
    You're just living in your own Hell

    To bring this back to a proper course
    We will band together, stand together
    To bring this back to a place I know
    We will band together
    We will regroup
    Hear the voice inside you
    Use the truth to guide you, now
    This is our time to restore the faith
    Regenerate, we will be the change

    We're searching for a cure
    Cause our world is drowning
    We're quick to guard our hearts
    Forget we share our scars
    In this world that's drowning

    Stop living for yourself
    You're just living in your own Hell

    To bring this back to a proper course
    We will band together, stand together
    To bring this back to a place I know
    We will band together
    We will regroup
    Hear the voice inside you
    Use the truth to guide you, now
    This is our time to restore the faith
    Regenerate, we will be the change

    Why condemn when you can confide?
    Why condemn when you can confide?
    You're all just too busy picking a side
    Why condemn when you can confide?
    Regenerate, we will change this life
    Why condemn when you can confide?
    Regenerate, regenerate this life

    To bring this back to a proper course
    We will band together, stand together
    To bring this back to a place I know
    We will band together
    We will regroup
    Hear the voice inside you
    Use the truth to guide you, now
    This is our time to restore the faith
    Regenerate, we will be the change

    Regenerate, regenerate this life
    Regenerate, regenerate
    We've returned to reclaim

  9. Sometimes I may chain post in this thread. This is a warzone of self improvement. Depending on when I see fit, there will be an onslaught of fire from me against the heinous kraken that is the porn industry.



    “Threat condition state. Although Sheepdogs operate in “yellow,” they’re prepared to escalate to “orange” or “red” in a moment’s notice. Though the warrior trains for violence and can withstand the psychological impact of violence, he/she abhors violence. Identifying and diffusing a threat is the largest segment of the Unbeatable Mind warrior training. Only when all else fails will the warrior engage in a violence to end the threat. When this happens, he/she terrifies their opponent with an offensive mind. Exercise Think about a violent and vicious animal - wolverine, lion, or bear. Sit in silence and begin your breath control. Count backwards from 100. At 50, invoke the image and psychological energy of your chosen animal. Feel the animal’s ferocious attack energy. Feel the animal’s emotions as it seeks to protect its offspring. Imagine yourself fighting a violent criminal with the same psychic animal. Now, practice turning this energy on and off, like a light switch. Repeat this exercise daily for a month. This will cultivate an offensive mind-set and provide an enormous amount of psychological energy to be used in the event of a violent encounter.”

    Porn’s Dirty Little Secret
    August 4, 2014


    To viewers, pornography can appear a fantasy world of pleasure and thrills. To those who create and participate in making pornography, however, their experiences are often flooded with drugs, disease, slavery, trafficking, rape and abuse.


    I got the &*%$ kicked out of me …. Most of the girls start crying because they’re hurting so bad …. I couldn’t breathe. I was being hit and choked. I was really upset and they didn’t stop. They kept filming. [I asked them to turn the camera off] and they kept going. –Regan Starr [1]

    The pornography industry works hard to keep up a glamorous image, but behind the camera is a reality of violence, drugs, and human trafficking.

    With some editing and off-screen coercion, pornographers can make it look like what’s happening onscreen is being enjoyed. But the un-cut version is a different story. Porn actors are constantly threatened and emotionally and verbally abused by agents and directors to force them into doing things they don’t want to do. [2]

    “You’re viewed as an object and not as a human with a spirit,” wrote Jersey Jaxin, a former porn star that left the industry in 2007. “People do drugs because they can’t deal with the way they are being treated. Seventy five percent [of porn performers] and rising are using drugs. Have to numb themselves. There are specific doctors in this industry that if you go in for a common cold they’ll give you Vicodin, Viagara, anything you want because all they care about is the money. You are a number. You’re bruised. You have black eyes. You’re ripped. You’re torn. You have your insides coming out.” [3]

    Not only do pornographers crop out the severe physical and emotional pain actors experience, but in many cases they also hide the fact that some “performers” aren’t given any choice at all.

    Part of the lie porn producers want customers to buy into is that porn is legitimate entertainment made by glamorous people who are doing it because it’s what they want; it’s OK for the user to enjoy it because the people they’re watching seem to be enjoying it. What they don’t say is that some of those people look like they’re having a good time because behind the scenes they have a gun pointed at their head. And if they stop smiling, it will go off. [4]

    Obviously, human trafficking is an underground business, making firm statistics hard to come by. But the facts in cases that come to light are chilling. For example, in 2011, two Miami men were found guilty of spending five years luring women into a human trafficking trap. They would advertise modeling roles, then when women came to try out, they would drug them, kidnap them, rape them, videotape the violence, and sell it to pornography stores and businesses across the country. [5]

    That same year a couple in Missouri was charged with forcing a mentally handicapped girl to produce porn for them by beating, whipping, suffocating, electrocuting, drowning, mutilating, and choking her until she agreed. One of the photos they forced her to make ended up on the front cover of a porn publication owned by Hustler Magazine Group. [6]

    Those cases are just the tip of the iceberg; many more like them exist, and for each victim discovered, countless others suffer in silence. [7]

    Still others are victimized by being forced into prostitution.

    Given that pornography makes prostitution and sexually exploiting others look normal, [8] it’s not surprising that there’s a strong association between pornography use and going to prostitutes. [9] In fact, men who go to prostitutes are twice as likely to have watched a porn film in the last year compared to the general population. [10] It’s also not surprising that when these customers show up, many come ready with porn images in hand to show the women they’re exploiting—many of which are human trafficking victims controlled by pimps—what they’ll be forced to do. [11]

    And they’re not the only ones using porn as an illustration. “Pimps and traffickers use pornography to initiate their … victims into their new life of sexual slavery,” says Dr. Janice Shaw Crouse, a former UN representative and a senior fellow at the Beverley LaHaye Institute. Through exposure to porn, these victims “get hardened to accept the inevitable and learn what is expected of them.” [12]

    In a study of 854 women in prostitution across nine countries, 49% said that porn had been made of them while they were in prostitution, and 47% said they had been harmed by men who had either forced or tried to force their victims to do things the men had seen in porn. [13]

    In the end, porn fuels prostitution; and porn and prostitution are the products the sex trade exists to deliver. [14]

    Hey Battlemaster Lotus Praxis........... Great THEME.......... Totaly agree with what Jonah Mix said. Thanks for the idea!!!! Take care
     
  17. Change in the world can only happen if we make the change inside ourselves.

    @SONofVEnus you are a strong one, since you first arrived here I could sense what is within you right through the screen upon encountering a post of yours.

    Let us change the face of recovery around here together.

    I'm here to expose lies and uncover nothing but the truth and seek retribution for what PMO addiction did to my life and all the people whom are coerced, forced, and manipulated into the porn industry and end up being dragged into destinies of unspeakable torments and miseries.

    The underworld crime lords and illegitimate kingpins will fall to their knees and beg for mercy when the virus of internet porn is finally purged from this world.
