These stats expose some reasons why the world is fucked-up.

  • Last year alone, 92 billion videos were watched on Pornhub. That’s more than 11 videos for every person on the planet. And that’s just on that one site!
  • According to the facts presented on this link, 90% of kids are exposed to pornography, and the greatest consumers of pornography are boys aged 12-17.

I know that “back in my day” stories are boring, but that is a revolutionary change from the baby boomer childhood. The closest we ever got to porn was when we found dad’s Playboy collection. My dad wasn’t into Playboy, so the only nudity I saw was in my mom’s National Geographic magazines, which means (1) I never saw a naked woman of European heritage, and (2) I never saw naked women presented in any sexual context. The closest I got to sexy stories was when I visited the barber, where I could scan through the “manly” pulp magazines while waiting for my turn. And I knew those magazines weren’t really all that manly, because my prim and proper aunt, an operatic soprano with a Masters degree from the Eastman School of Music, made a nice supplemental income by submitting fiction to those magazines. She just studied each magazine’s content and prose style, then mimicked it and submitted articles under a male pseudonym. She could churn out those stories as if they were produced on an assembly line, which in a sense, they were.

Back to the point …

Scientists and media experts claim that each new form of technology alters our culture, not just because of the content it delivers, but also because it re-wires our brains. It is difficult to make a good argument that the world is better now than it was before the internet re-wired us. Contrary to what pundits say, World War III is not coming. It’s already here. There is a great information war taking place across the globe, and the forces of light are losing. The unlimited access of children to pornography is part of that, but only part. In my opinion, access to misinformation and disinformation is even more important. Sure, children are gullible and easily fooled, but we even have adults quoting completely fabricated Russian propaganda on the floors of our Congress as if it were factual.

Oh, well. That’s a story for another day.
