America's Next Top Bottom

like if you are writing about anything for a liberal workplace, organization, news outlet, etc., you can talk about things like racism, homelessness, misogyny, trans-antagonism, ableism, etc., but you can't get into the material reasons why these things happen, because it implicates racial capitalism and settler colonialism. and that's the thing that liberals will never allow you to acknowledge.

i have a file or folder on my pc that i want to share with other people. let's call it gayshit.mp3

unfortunately gayshit.mp3 is 750mb and im not paying for discord nitro so i need another way to send it

i put it into qbittorrent and it makes a torrent file. this is essentially a very small file that points to gayshit.mp3 so other computers can find it. kinda like a treasure map

i send this tiny file to my friend, who loads it into qbittorrent. their computer takes a moment to find mine over the vast expanse of cyberspace and then (as long as my pc is running and the file is still where it should be), it gets copied from my hard drive to theirs

this is the cool part: if somebody else loads that tiny file, they can download it from both of us. if i'm offline but my friend is on, the third person can still get it. this also means that if two people have separate halves of the file, they can download the other half from each other. as long as some combination of people have the pieces between them, they can all have the whole thing.

crucially this does not require a server!!! you can just upload the file to a few people and as long as they keep it, it's still accessible. as long as somebody, somewhere is still connected, it's available forever. the only way it goes away is if everybody disconnects from it.

It's because it could be defined in completely different ways, and includes content that cannot be meaningfully grouped together.

It can include movies that children are legally not allowed to watch (which is a shitty concept), movies made without children in mind, but that still attract children (like most action or horror movies), movies made by someone who's trying to be an edgelord on purpose because they believe "adult" media should be offensive (like a large part of cartoons that are marketed as for adults), movies that are considered too complex for children for some socially constructed reason.
