Are There No Bounds?

All people are stupid. But then some people are fucking stupid. Jennifer S. Bryson is one of those people. Via Public Discourse:

Yet pornography now appears frequently in the possession of violent terrorists and their supporters, including Osama bin Laden. Regarding “smut” found on captured media, in 2010, a Department of Defense al-Qaeda analyst was quoted in The Atlantic: “We have terabytes of this stuff.” Terabytes. That’s a lot of “smut.”

I wonder whether the pornography of today—now ubiquitous and increasingly grotesque—is one of the influences warping the mentality of those who aspire to or who actually go on to engage in ever more grotesque public violence.

[. . .]

I believe our country needs to invest in research that questions whether it makes a difference when the minds that advocate for extremist ideologies are minds warped by pornography use. Perhaps the twisting of the mind that results from pornography has an impact—an exceptionally dark, dangerous impact—on how radicalized individuals act out the concepts of their ideology.

Are there no bounds to human stupidity? Porn makes terrorists? You want “our country” to “invest” in your ridiculous thesis that porn causes terrorism?¹ Fuck you, bitch, for insinuating that because I’m a male porn viewer, I’m a potential terrorist. If you’re so interested in this topic, have at it, but PAY FOR IT YOURSELF.

1.”Invest” doesn’t mean what you think it means.
