That approach is great as well, just have to be careful and well defined when talking about 'Liberty'. Being explicit with defining Liberty as being "Negative Rights" and emphasizing non-coercion. Then its easy to banter about being a Liberty Maximalist.

Discussions on first principles work best for me, try not to muddy up my argumentation with statistical reasoning.

A good Deontology foundation is better to communicate, not trying to be Ben Shapiro with a cranium filled with statistical data.

I don't intend to make it appear as if I'm judging those who provide prostitution either, just attempting to lay out the landscape to hopefully give a better understanding of the situation.

For clarification, think OF was originally created to give a 'Patreon' like platform for bands to monetize on hardcore fans. They planned on getting back to their roots and soon found out that their revenue would drastically decline as a result.

If y'all really want to talk btc without being direct, I used to talk to my coworkers about monetary theory and how it greatly affects the economy. They eventually asked about crypto and I brought up how all cryptos are centralized fiat. Bitcoin is supreme!

BTC allows for people who oppose these practices to create institutions who influence the 'fans' and deter potential fans from joining in on the debauchery

May not agree with the 'service' or 'product' being provided on moral grounds, though the customers find value in what is on the marketplace.

With regards to school age individuals being able to access this content, what are the parents doing?

At the end of the day, real change occurs by changing the preferences of the customer. The OF phenomenon is filling a supply void for a previously unknown demand.

The pornographic content of OF and intentional sexualization of women are ultimately varying degrees of legalized prostitution. Sex work is not real work.

Rather get rid of the IRS than the FED, taxes are a worse evil. The market can take care of money printing #EndtheIRS #TaxationisTheft #EndtheFED #ancap

Anybody who is primarily motivated by power accumulation is inherently a clown #ClownWorld

The ultimate indicator of Low Time Preference thinking is an investment in human capital

Looking forward to Bitcoiners creating their own Educational Institutions #SchoolChoice #FreedomTechnology #Hodl #btc

Western Civilization was built on Ancient Cardinal Virtues. A good chunk of contemporary conversation focuses on Temperance and Prudence (i.e. Doing the proper thing at the proper time and Production > Consumption)

I'd add sugar as well, though I see many people talk about 'dose make the poison'

How many people are calculating their amount of sugar, caffeine, nicotine, or alcohol use on a given day? Are they optimizing for minimal inflammation?

The driving factor for the use is pleasure, and usually in a mixed ratio optimized for taste. Studies talked about in a book that I think is called 'Salt, Sugar, Fat', they inform us on a human tendency to not feel satisfied when the right ratios are present (e.g. chocolate bars, candy, potato chips, fast food, etc.)

I have alcohol and caffeine from time to time but I drink whiskey sodas and black coffee. Its not just for utilitarian purposes, my tolerance for sugary food and drink has waned from being on a low/no carb way of eating for quite some time.

Now agreeing that 'the dose make the poison' its also important to have a multivariable analysis of the situation. What is the historical data on these drugs and their user base? How long have they been in use? What is the cultural environment around their usage?

Believing the argument being made is a form of hormesis on a dietary level is helpful, lifestyle hormesis is great, but dietary hormesis may not be the best route to go in the long run.

The likelihood for someone to take an extremely long ice baths or sauna sessions, and keep on doing it for a sustainable time period, is low. I'd never tell someone to not lift weights if they've never picked up a thing in their life. I'd be comfortable to say, "Hey, if you haven't had [name the poison], best not to make regular use of it if you want to live an optimally healthy life."

There may be benefits to having caffeine here and there and the same goes for alcohol or nicotine, but the act is futile without acknowledging that prolonged use is detrimental to overall health.

Alcohol, caffeine, nicotine, and sugar are not just poisons due to their inflammation and other health impact factors, they may be the most detrimental due to their acceptability and slow burn destruction of the human body over a lifetime.
