So the 14 year old can consent to sex but can't he trusted to make good decisions with the resulting 10 million dollars until she's almost finished her bachelor's? What internal logic is this whole thing operating on?
honestly presenting ethical questions under capitalism in this way makes it abundantly clear why the marketplace is the enemy of humanity. if there is someone who has the means and intent to do something like this, the only acceptable answer is to kill them and redistribute their wealth. nothing else comes even remotely close to solving the problem.
Let's say a billionaire wants to watch 456 poor people from Korea compete in winner-takes-all blood sports until only one participant is left, that winner receives ₩26.9B. All participants agree. Should this be allowed?
He is connected to university of Texas and his fellow think tankers are employed at university of London and Cornell among others. This seems like a slam dunk to flag a bunch of people in these august institutions and ruin this asshole's day
"I'll set you up for life if you just let me have sex with you" is coercion no matter the age. You can't consent to that, not when "no" isn't really an option.
I've read about this happening in Philippines except its in hundreds or at best thousands of dollars and the girl's "consent" is never involved. Only parents.
In its decadent aspect the national bourgeoisie gets considerable help from the Western bourgeoisies who happen to be tourists enamored of exoticism, hunting and casinos. The national bourgeoisie establishes holiday resorts and playgrounds for entertaining the Western bourgeoisie. This sector goes by the name of tourism and becomes a national industry for this very purpose. We only have to look at what has happened in Latin America if we want proof of the way the ex-colonized bourgeoisie can be transformed into "party" organizer. The casinos in Havana and Mexico City, the beaches of Rio, Copacabana, and Acapulco, the young Brazilian and Mexican girls, the thirteen-year-old mestizas, are the scars of this depravation of the national bourgeoisie. Because it is lacking in ideas, because it is inward-looking, cut off from the people, sapped by its congenital incapacity to evaluate issues on the basis of the nation as a whole, the national bourgeoisie assumes the role of manager for the companies of the West and turns its country virtually into a bordello for Europe.
Once again we need only to look at the pitiful spectacle of certain republics in Latin America. U.S. businessmen, banking magnates and technocrats jet "down to the tropics," and for a week to ten days wallow in the sweet depravity of their private "reserves."
They're trying to first legitimize the child sex-work/exploitation. Then, they can move on to "Who are we to tell the child how much she should accept? If we let the market work and the girl wants to accept 100k, or even just 1k, why should we prevent her from maximizing her utility?"
They're just trying to use big numbers to motivate the permissability in theory as a "gotcha, now you have to support child sex-work in general" argument. The correct response of course is to beat this person to death as an example.
They’re also using the big number because deep down they know that, as structured now, labour is exploited by capital. So they put the big number place holder in to appeal to people who would take a big dose of exploitation/trauma in order to have a life for free of that after the said event.
That a known pedophile should have been given free reign to keep sex trafficking and in fact be given so much power and wealth that he could even theoretically have done this? Yeah it's kinda fucked up that we let it happen.
"Okay so I invented this awesome gotcha that's totally gonna own the libs. It's like the trolley problem, right? But one of the tracks makes you a Professional Pedophile and the other one is just a trolley track with no issues. This is gonna get em"
I love that trolley problem where there's no one on the track and you are just asking if I would derail public transportation for no reason. It's so easy to answer!
I can't think of an anime series, no matter how , that hasn't at some point had someone on Hexbear making Thermian Arguments for how the show isn't condoning the hog slop being dished out to hogs, whether it's "because magical video game world rules, slavery this one time is okay and good actually" or "showing the JDF utterly obliterating a fantasy world with tacticool weapons and colonizing the fantasy world while at the same time militarily crushing every other rivaling military force in the contemporary world isn't actually advocating for Japanese nationalistic supremacy because reasons" or even "genocide is okay this one time because according to these Thermian Arguments the beings being genocided aren't intelligent and don't have feelings which is totally not an argument typically made by real life genocide enjoyers."
I was honestly a bit surprised Epstein didn't get more defenders from the AnCap crowd, but it seems most of them have gone Q-pilled. I guess Epstein being a Jewish metropolitan rich guy didn't help, now if he had been some steak eating Texas oil baron...
The tactic pedos seem to be using is to virtue signal extremely hard against Liberal pedophiles as cover. The ones just openly admitting support for pedophilia are the dumb ones who aren’t hip to the program
