We put up with weird shit all the time because that’s what tolerance entails. And also weird sexual acts or practices or things like religious practices that are seen as weird are usually restricted to private spaces of consenting and willlingly participating individuals. Like yeah I get that we all kinda judge the folks over at /r/sounding but ultimately I don’t think individuals should be ostricized or have civil libirties removed for shit like that. I don’t think it’s our duty as a collective to police people’s private actions as long as no harm is being brought onto others

Every time I hear someone start talking about the duty of society at judging people’s behaviors based on some abstract idea of “degeneracy”, it always stinks of watered down proto fascist ideology. “Degeneracy” has been used as an excuse to justify act of xenophobia and the outcasting of minorities so many times. As a commenter pointed out, people’s individual freedoms end at begin at their fellow man’s.
If someone wants to pull a pyrocynical and jack off to furry fart inflation role play using the latest VR AI porn technology then by all means they can go ahead as long as every party involved is consenting. It’s none of my business

Where are you getting this idea that it’s society’s right to judge people’s “bizarre” behaviors?
