Given the massive levels of low libido, erectile dysfunction, reduced birth rates, anxiety, depression etc. I don't think it is fair to says that people turns out fine.

The question is what role porn has.

Regardless, my comment was more aimed at how we regulate than the effects of porn.

You’re making some huge leaps in assuming the direction of causality.

Where?

I explicitly mention that I do not assume this is related to porn.

I merely say that we did not turn out fine.

I mean I imagine people would also feel all that if you burned their house down, and with the modern heat waves we should expect a lot more houses to burn in the coming years.

So I reckon the right answer to houses being burnt down is not "but we turned out just fine"?

We shouldn't be discussing how to most effectively infringe upon people's personal liberties before first discussing whether there's one iota of evidence that these liberties are to blame for extremely serious issues you mentioned. The root cause of these problems is almost certainly a lot closer to the general state of economic and social hardship than porn.

Of course it's a lot easier for those in power to divert attention to a moral panic like porn instead of acknowledging that our economic system and core values are making people depressed and hopeless to the point that they're becoming incapable of performing the one thing they've been optimizing for over millions of years of evolution - reproducing.

Absolutely no doubt!

Something indicates that the feeling of equality (which most easily can be achieved with actual equality) would be more beneficial.

But then again, this would likely require taxing - something in particular Americans loathe for some reason (hint: decades of aggressive propaganda)

You sound like you have a lot of complaints about the world and a lot of will for some finger pointing, evidence backed cause&effect and staying on topic be damned

No. No we have not turned out fine

???

not a comment on you specifically but - ime - when someone says they turned out fine, it's a strong signal that they didn't
