The word #porn comes from the lowest classes of women enslaved in prostitution, the "pornai" in Ancient Greek, who had the lowest income and had to be available to men of all classes. #Pornography therefore means "depiction of the lowest class of whores/sex slaves".

Yesterday, a Federal judge rendered a decision pershingsquarefoundation.org/wp-content/upl… that no one has likely read. You should. The lawsuit is against MindGeek, the largest internet porn company in the world, and Visa. Both are culpable. Visa’s conduct here is inexcusable,

For the record, neither I nor my firm have any economic interest, long or short, in Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Amex or any other any payments company, processing company, bank or other financial institution.

Thank you Bill. I walk quietly in your shadow.

A federal judge has just opened Visa up to thousands of potential lawsuits from victims of child abuse, rape and sex trafficking who were harmed on Pornhub with Visa’s help. This may also amount to criminal liability for Visa’s board. Let justice roll…#Traffickinghub

Thanks Mike! For clarity the Pershing Square Philanthropies is not involved in this case but has supported organizations that work to stop human trafficking and image -based abuse. It is an issue we care a lot about.

Visa ‘Intended to Help’ Pornhub, MindGeek Monetize Child Porn: Ruling – Variety variety.com/2022/digital/n…

Hats off to a brave young woman who had her life upended when Pornhub monetized naked videos of her taken when she was just 13. Serena sued Pornhub and Visa, and in a landmark case a federal judge has allowed the case to proceed -- with a scathing opinion. nickkristof.substack.com/p/holding-porn…

We should not forget who the real heroes are, the victims who have the courage to come forward, in this case, Serena Fleites, and the real activists like Laila Mickelwait without whom justice would not be served. frenchpress.thedispatch.com/p/a-crucial-co…

A 16yr old girl from Alabama was drugged & raped. Her trafficker filmed the assaults and entered into a profit sharing relationship with P*rnhub to sell the rape videos. Her abuser was arrested. Now she is suing P*rnhub. PH lost its motion to dismiss her case. #Justice

Hey everyone! I’ve been helping this very pregnant feral cat and am trying to raise funds for her vet bills and her kittens’ vet bills as well as other resources we may need once the kittens are born. If you can donate, any amount helps! gofund.me/edca73cc
