Essentially, if police come across a brothel and the women (who are coerced) claim they are there consensually, they cannot do much. If it’s illegal, then they can actually get them to safety so they can tell them they were forced. If they weren’t, they can just drop the charges. This is basically what Northern Ireland has been doing- and the only people who have been convicted were also convicted of perpetuating human trafficking (they weren’t a victim)

Nonces are going to nonce

Also, legalising prostitution makes protecting women from being trafficked harder

Kind of a wise move tbh

It was going to happen eventually regardless. HKSAR has an expiry date

America is still crying over socialism???

Why is the USA blockading Cuba?

The west is going the same direction. Especially the UK. In fact, I think deep down in classified organisations, there are a lot of similarities with China. But a difference is that the UK isn’t willing to admit it, while China proudly boasts about it.

I think they made the situation worse. The original protests was over an extradition bill, which they eventually agreed to drop. But then the demands kept getting higher and higher to the point it became separatism. I think they shot themselves in their own foot if they seriously thought China would allow separatism to happen

Personal phone numbers are basically always 10/11 digits long (the 0 at the beginning is replaced with +44 if you’re making an international call)

Sounds like something I would do ngl

It’s a primary source for a presidential comment, much better than X, straight from the horses mouth and more aligned with indieweb principles (posting on your own platform, etc)

This theory sounds interesting… Any more on this?

I am in basically the same situation as you and my single asian user has no issue with it

It’s quite interesting. My great grandmother apparently used to talk about the Roman Catholics abusing children and mothers in the Magdalene Laundries and people saw her as a crazy conspiracy theorist.

Squid Game in a way is also a story about the rich elite participating in sickening immoral activities

So Qanon was partially right? Just named the wrong people

Not everyone watched pornography

Not everyone is a degenerate

In court…

No?

I would when I ran out of work to do. Whenever I was told off for it, I told them just to give me more work to do. Haven’t fallen asleep since
