The widespread proliferation of free internet pornography is a destructive force for civilization. Porn represents a hyperreal simulacrum of sex that compels the individual to masturbate to orgasm, which tricks the body into thinking it is getting sex regularly with no effort and wastes time, energy, and virility. Frequent porn use encourages addiction due to the high dopamine spikes from sexual imagery and orgasm, as well as apathy towards pursuing relationships or sex. It is easy for a porn addict to neglect real relationships in favor of spending all their time online, donating money to camwhores, or collecting gigabytes of niche specialized porn that creates specific fantasy standards that make pursuing relationships with real women unappealing.
