This includes some porn subreddits as well as subreddits like /r/Drugs. Apparently due to being “unmoderated”, but some were not. What are your thoughts?

Edit: apparently also subreddits like /r/transgender_surgeries are banned too. Definitely feels politically motivated. Edit 2: seems like at least some (?) bans are being undone, like the above mentioned ones.

    I think banning porn is in part about getting birthrates back up. They’re scared of replacement. There’s the morality crap they’re tossing but the driving force is replacement theory and lost profit. They don’t want to be like Japan.

      I don’t see how banning porn accomplishes this. Women are the gatekeepers who get to decide whether or not a baby gets born and as a population grows wealthier and more educated the women tend to have less kids. Has very little to do with porn which is mostly watched by men.

      The solution to not being like Japan is immigration. That’s why our population isn’t declining every year like Japan. Without current level of immigration, our population would be decreasing every year and we would be like Japan.
