Josh Hawley recently appeared at America Fest 2022 (a Turning Point USA conference), and he made a comment that has too-online liberals going berserk.
While speaking, Hawley committed the unthinkable wrong, and you may want to sit down for this, of making fun of pornography. He even suggested that men (gasp!) ask real-life women out on dates in lieu of sitting in front of their computer screens doing things I’m not going to type out here.
That got Aaron Rupar mini-me Acyn’s attention, and he quickly posted a clip meant to mock Hawley. He made a second response as well that he quickly deleted. The internet is forever, though.

Hawley’s suggestion that porn isn’t superior to having a real relationship had people melting down in the replies.
He still doesn't understand why she buys so many batteries, but she does keep the household buzzing!

To so many (on the left, specifically), it is unfathomable that a person could simply be in a loving, monogamous relationship. In this case, Hawley’s wife is objectively attractive, Harvard-educated, and has argued successfully before the Supreme Court. I’m pretty sure he’s happy with his situation. And still, trolls who have probably never touched a real woman that isn’t their mother can’t help but be triggered that Hawley might prefer that to having a detrimental porn addiction.

Get it? If you don’t take in hours of videos of people you don’t know having sex, you must be gay. Absolutely hilarious!
I find this entire thing sad. Porn addiction is an epidemic in the United States, to the point where it’s unquantifiable how many people and relationships it has destroyed. Whether we are talking about the women involved behind the camera, many of which are trafficked and/or feel like they have no choice, or those who partake in it, the damage can be severe.
That’s especially true for men, millions of which have no ability to connect with an actual woman because their view of sex and feminity has been so warped. I get that some conservatives take the libertarian position on this. Let’s just say that I disagree. I think things that are profoundly harmful to the health of society should be called out for what they are.
People are broken, and pretending that their brokenness is fine will only lead them into further despair. It’s easy for someone to play tough guy on the internet about this stuff. It’s a whole different thing when they are alone, consumed by loneliness they are too embarrassed to admit to. Men need to be told the truth, and the truth is that porn addictions will destroy them.
