A candidate in a high-stakes legislative contest in Virginia had sex with her husband in live videos posted on a pornographic website and asked viewers to pay them money in return for carrying out specific sex acts.
Screenshots of Susanna Gibson on the website were shared with The Associated Press. The campaign for Gibson, a Democrat running for a seat in the Virginia House of Delegates in a district just outside Richmond, issued a statement Monday in which it denounced the sharing of the videos as a violation of the law and her privacy. Gibson called the exposure of the videos “the worst gutter politics.”
“It won’t intimidate me and it won’t silence me,” she said in the statement. “My political opponents and their Republican allies have proven they’re willing to commit a sex crime to attack me and my family because there’s no line they won’t cross to silence women when they speak up.”

respectable. There is absolutely nothing morally wrong with participating in sex work or being openly sexual in the right community. She may be contemptible for being a democrat, but she's not contemptible for her sex positivity.
edit: it blows my mind that a comment defending sex workers ends up negative and this fucking comment reducing the entire story into a joke about getting a woman's nudes (a victim of a systemic harassment campaign no less) is top comment. I don't come here often, is this what lemmyworld is usually like?

I don't think it's your take on sex workers that is getting the downvotes.
oh I thought that the democratic party being a massive corporate lobbying convention was a fairly uncontroversial take in general, is this one of those things where people interpret criticism of democrats as worship and praise for republicans?
Criticizing the democratic party is counter-productive until we eliminate the GOP and institute nation-wide STAR voting or similar. The only thing you'll accomplish is lower the bar republicans have to cross to win.
STAR voting is the way: http://equal.vote/
you're right, I should have been less reckless. Criticizing the Democrats here on Lemmy runs the risk of helping the Republicans win. I should have kept that under better wraps, I'll make sure to only say nice things about the Democrats so as to avoid lowering the bar Republicans have to cross to win, like how they have tried harder than any other party to get a small amount of student loan debt canfelled while owning the house, the senate, and the presidency, or that they were the only party to un-ban trans people from military service after the other party banned trans people from military service
Yep
clearly my mistake was expecting people I've never met on the internet to understand nuance 😔
First time?
Welcome to the Internet
Ufa, you got keelhauled for saying something reasonable.
It's also a reference to a fairly popular TV show that people enjoy.
I know, I've seen the show and I've also seen the joke repeated every single fucking time it has been publicly stated that a women has a naked picture of herself that exists.
On kbin.social you show up positive with no downvotes
federation is weird, I'm +6/-17 on my instance
