Know WHY it's considered "derailing"? Because, just like confronting creationists with fossil evidence, the truth is inconvenient to the preferred narrative.

The preferred narrative, in this case, of course has to do with porn and hyper-rampant-ohnoes-sexualization of society, and the fact that people can go online and look at a picture of naked breasts. This is tied to the breathless hyperbole about the ever worsening 'rape culture' (translation, people like to look at porn) ...and the horrible sex-sex-sex-everywhere in the media because god help me if I have to change the channel myself... and the endless assurances we've heard for the past 3 decades that consenting adults looking at pictures of other consenting adults fucking MUST lead, somehow, to violence and rape.

Except, the statistics don't bear it out. Rape is down. That is an indisputable fact. So either the worsening "rape culture" isn't actually worsening, or there actually isn't a lot of porn on cable tv or the intertubes (when obviously there is) OR, and this is the kicker- porn has less than jack diddly shit to do with rape, correlation-wise, causal-wise, any of it.

Porn is up, rape is down.

Facts matter.

Like I said, terribly inconvenient to the narrative.
