WARNING 18+ Adult content & US racism.
Perhaps the most depraved, racist & disgusting thing we have ever reported:
Sick Americans are making porn based on the US government & ETIM claim of genocide & concentration camps in Xinjiang, China.
Nothing more needs saying from us, just look at this degenerate crap.

Because sex and intimacy are touchy subjects that are tightly coupled with morality, are historically intertwined with multiple forms of both oppression and liberation, and not everyone agrees on the boundaries of what can or should be exchangeable through trade or money. Threads on this topic are always heated and spicy.
IMO (even though i believe in abolishing the sex trade) too often communists critique the notion of “sex work” from a moralistic position despite claiming not to.
There will always be exhibitionists. There will always be people who view sex and fulfilling fetishes as a service. As a species our views on sex will always be evolving, and different nations’ cultures have different attitudes on public sexuality. This might be an unpopular opinion here, but I don’t think communists should be making any puritanical moral judgements on sex exhibitionism that we then try to apply as some universal expectation for any future communist government to meet. Ultimately, those historically most affected by the sex trade – non-bourgeois women, lgbtq, and youth – should be the loudest voices dictating the consensus of how any particular society legally approaches this topic. Because the expectations will differ from society to society depending on that society’s own social norms.
The problem is the exchange of sex for survival is an incredibly coercive relationship. That’s true of any exchange of “labor” under capitalism, but for sex workers who are commodifying their own reproductive health and gender it’s even more so. Our task should to remove the coercive nature of sexual relationships under capitalism.

That is a great answer. And I say morality here is formed by religion, which an alarming percentage of people here are part of.
