So you have arbitrarily decided that I must think about sex either magically or materialistically.

Good day to you sir.

And you would be right. That is what it sounds like. We all get forced into working. Some have to wear a uniform and serve coffee and biscuits, others have to slop 50 year old meat in a dirty toilet - or whatever scenario that makes it more palatable.

Why do I have to think about sex materialistically?

[–] drastic133@lemmy.ml -2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

No, my point is that some may be doing porn that don't like doing porn, but are still saying they do like porn - because of various social or economic mechanisms, or circumstances, or whatever.

That's not saying that nobody likes doing porn.

When a boss asks an employee if they like their job, then the employee rarely have anything to gain by saying no - even if they don't actually like their job.

Honesty isn't necessarily rewarded. That makes it hard to know if a person actually does porn because they like it, since they usually have an incentive to say they like it regardless.

I think the comparison is about want and need. They do it because they feel forced into it, by some means or another.

So you are saying some people want to do porn, and others don't. Presumably because some like it and some don't. They all do it for money though, none of them do it for free.

What's the basis of knowing if someone does it because they like it then? Because they say so?

I was only commenting on the semantic distinction of the two, not the viability of Europe superiority - though beating Murica these days can't be impossible.

US being at war is fairly predictable, tbh.

It is an important distinction though, because standing up to US might imply leaning towards China. But standing up to US and China, implies a third option: Europe need to huddle up together.
