Comment on Pornography showing strangulation and incest to be banned in UK from early November

If it upsets you, DON'T FUCKING WATCH IT.
For example I don't watch scat porn because I find it disgusting. But I'd never want to legislate on my personal opinion on such a... subjective matter.
As long as it's consenting adults, and no crime is committed (so, still no snuff/child porn). But if people want to get off to others playing with piss, shit, squirt, or being choked, or having their balls beaten into a pulp, fucking let them...

You accidentally committed a tautology - it’s a crime because it’s illegal/there’s a law against it. With this law, it will, by definition, become a crime.
I have no idea what the UK’s laws are on incest itself, nor fake depictions of crimes (e.g. fake snuff), and I don’t intend to find out.

It's not really a tautology.
My whole point was to not criminalise porn itself, but handle the action within it criminally only if the action is a crime.
For example, choking someone consensually isn't a crime. Squirting isn't a crime. Having sex with your fake sister isn't a crime. However somehow, making porn of it, made these actions a crime. That's what needs to go. If the action in itself is a crime - murder, mutilation, CSAM, incestuous sex (yes, sexual contact with an immediate relative is a criminal act in the UK), these are all crimes, and if they appear in porn, they should be investigated and treated as such.
But, again, squirting isn't a crime. Drinking your piss, eating your partner's shit, (consensually) choking your partner, again, not a crime. So there's no need to criminalise their appearance in porn either.

Well said on both comments.
I think there’s far too many religious zealots within government and too many religious groups advocating for such things to be banned.
I feel that we’re not far from banning homosexuality by proxy - as some people might find their acts offensive.

I find religious zealots who try to force their views onto others incredibly offensive, can we ban that too please?
