To be fair, it's not uncommon to see accounts with usernames like "throwaway_84723" on here. The barrier to making accounts is low and the site invites a more "don't remember me" crowd.
Yeah, I just wanted to gently let you know you're wasting your time hoping for good faith discussion out of them is all.

I support the anti-porn feminists resisting the capitalist commodification of the female body, yes. What moral system do you advocate? Laissez-faire?
I advocate for a moral system in which each individual has total ownership of their body and can do with it and put into it what they want, for the most part. There are always edge cases, and I of course cannot account for them all, so it is more of a rule of thumb. If someone is doing something that is not hurting me or anyone else, it’s not my fucking business. You advocate for taking ownership over women’s bodies,…
The game theory of this social theory is badly flawed. People who adhere to it will always serve those who form groups and enforce in-out distinctions.

I'm not saying morality is arbitrary, no. I'm saying that commodifying human bodies is reprehensible and your advocacy for same is shameful. Live sex work already involves existing payment processors. Porn addicts are definitionally addicted to fantasy. I wish you luck with the rest of your comment.
Really? Most blue collar labor essentially involves selling your body in much worse ways, taking many good years off one’s life in a lot of cases, especially compared to selling sex videos on OnlyFans, or engaging in legal, regulated, protected prostitution. It is essentially commodifying human bodies, do you have a moral issue with this as well?

Because whores must be punished . First day in the USA? And for those that need it: */s*
I don't live in the US, I live in Austria. Different country, same hypocricy.

> Tell that to the sex trafficking victims. “Slavery hurts everyone involved” is true, but is not a reason to ban work that is not slavery. And that is just as true if you limit it to sex work as it is more generally.
How much poison has to be mixed into the egg salad before we avoid eating it?

You advocate for the total atomization of society down to lone individuals whose sole moral precept is not to harm each other during free economic exchanges. The game theory of this social theory is badly flawed. People who adhere to it will always serve those who form groups and enforce in-out distinctions.

you mean the same protection as cash and a fraction of the energy cost of all banking / visa / mastercard with an economic incentive to use renewables. dont forget protection against theft inserts someone else to each transaction
That's an obvious flat out lie, crypto consumes much more power than the banking system, because of course it does. It literally relies on proof of work, through arrays of GPUs pointlessly crunching numbers. And that's just to handle a fraction of the number of transactions the banking system does. It's estimated that Bitcoin alone uses up as much power as an entire country: https://www.polytechnique-insights.com/en/…
you even mention gpus not asics and POW as a bad thing. it is the ONLY thing that is worth about bitcoin.

> Why not Square? I looked for alternatives, such as PayPal, and Square. They consider dating websites "high-risk", so they would most likely ban the account as well. It just seems like too much of a headache to rewrite the codebase to just have the account banned again. > Why not crypto? I thought about this as well. I don't dislike the idea of crypto, but what would users think? It would probably be a huge red flag…
Why is the payment processor so strongly coupled to the point that you would need to rewrite it? I understand there's effort to adapt it but I don't think it's good to write the code like that.
At least in Japan, I'm surprised that they haven't expanded Suica and similar systems to include online shopping.
