I know I am not the first one to say this, but there are a lot of very well credentialed people in tech worrying what would happen if internet giants collectively de-platformed a group who isn't right wing, while totally erasing the fact that it already happened to sex workers.

Absolutely no one cares about sex workers, though. Liberals are ridiculous prudes who are extremely terrified of sex. They largely deeply detest sex workers. The right is of course no better (but seems to be less vindictive about it for some reason that I have yet to figure out).

In my early life particularly, some of my closest friends and confidantes were or had been sex workers, but that shouldn’t have to be the case for someone to have empathy for anyone in that field.

But most people…just don’t seem to have that capability.
