Im sure you are extatic to have so many bodies made free to you with market forces. You get to pearl clutch about swerfs as well. Pretty nice deal for you.
I have no idea what you mean by that. Do you think sex workers benefit from the system that tries to exploit them? Do you or dont you think that sex workers are complict in rape culture? Because accusing sex workers of being complicit in the system that exploits them is what makes it SWERF bullshit, not the mere criticism of sex work. Thats where the line is.
It is a minority, but as usual such minorities are enough to make spaces unsafe for women when they have official backing or at least tacit acceptance of their behavior. That’s what turns it from just a minority that can be dealt with into a structural flaw of the community. The recent controversy about transmysogyny and liberal civility politics on lemmygrad unfortunately isn’t the first example of women complaining about their mistreatment on that instance. Just look at the reasoning of the guy you’re arguing with - his problem isn’t exploitation in sex work or coercive material conditions that pressure women who otherwise wouldn’t do so into sex work, it’s that he views it as dishonorable to perform sex work. He makes a moral argument against the woman where he puts the blame squarely on the sex worker because he’s a sexist pig who poisons a leftist space with reactionary ideology.
Either start explaining your position or shut the fuck up dude. Nobody is going to learn what the fuck you’re talking about if you just keep choosing to be a vague dickhead about it. At best all you’re doing is alienating potential understanders.
You dont understand agency and you don’t understand how victims can be recruited into damaging systems. Somehow we can uncontroversially say that white women can be used to advance patriarchy and imperialism, but anything that complicates your access to bodies on the market becomes a zero sum game.
did anyone suggest otherwise?
It sounds like the implication here is that sex workers are complicit in rape culture or something. Boilerplate swerf bullshit.

You can criticize sex work from this angle without implying that the sex workers themselves are complicit.
It’s not a zero sum game.

Lmao I’m literally saying what women in my own community are telling me. Not everyone agrees with you.
Like the average reactionary, you’re doing the “my black friends agree with my racism” thing, too.

no it costs money. free sex is when somebody is dumb enough to love you
You must be a true rape culture connoisseur.
Oh yeah, being forced to sell your body is just so consensual
Not what I said.
ETA: I said the sex workers arent complicit in that.
