I’m convinced this was written by GPT. We disagree on how good or bad porn is for society and the youth, so the rest doesn’t even matter.

I’m a human being. I know my writing style can often come off weird to some people, but I can assure you I don’t outsource my thinking to a word prediction program to make my points for me.
I haven’t seen any evidence that light or moderate consumption of porn by legal adults produces significant negative consequences for them or society at large, so long as the porn doesn’t involve non-consenting parties, underage individuals, etc. Thus, I don’t think it’s reasonable to heavily monitor and restrict access to every single individual in our society.
As for kids, research is obviously lacking since it’s somewhat of a touchy subject for researchers to study, but since we know sex ed, conversations between kids & parents, and even the most basic of parental controls and monitoring can prevent the vast majority of the negative effects, and even the whole of the initial consumption while underage, then that’s what I advocate for.
Until I see evidence to the contrary, that demonstrates larger harms from general consumption trends than the surveillance of the online media consumption of every single citizen, on top of the possible risks to online censorship, while other methods we already know work well still can’t reduce that risk below the possible harms of a monitoring/access control system, then I’m not going to support such a system.

If you’re a man I would propose the notion that you only have the perspective of the part of society that is predominantly watching porn and who is predominantly sexual abusers. Your perspective is limited and it’s evident by arguments you make. For example, limiting the support for your opinions to light or moderate porn viewing and that the porn doesn’t include non-consenting individuals or underage, etc. you’re completely ignoring the problem areas the maintain your point of view. Try thinking outside your bubble just as an exercise. Don’t mean this in an offensive way. I can understand your perspective and as such the narrow-sightedness of it.
