    Morale of the story: if you ever make an illegal U-turn in China, take a good look around and make sure to run over every guy with a camera, he could be a vigilante bounty-hunter :)

    > Porn is an accessory to masturbation, the safest sex: no STDs, no conception. With China facing ongoing crises in both those human conditions, isn't porn the State's best comrade?

    Presumably their accountants were dismayed at the productivity loss when 1,000,000,000 take time out to play with themselves, even if it's only for a few minutes a day.

    well, good point, but being a rather graphic solution, too likely to incite the people towards moral decay.

    perhaps, though, they should create a list of state-approved electromechanical stimulation devices. somehow the notion of a state sanctioned "sexual energy dissipation device" would fit nicely with the whole "control" thing they're into.

    No, because as we all know, the Freemasons control Porn. Ever since the Freemasons hired Leon Trotsky to assasinate President Taft and replace him with a body double, we've had to deal with this Zionist/Illuminatist/Templar plot to infiltrate the minds of this great Republic with pornographic material. Porn, as we all know by now, is set to cause our minds to vibrate at a specific frequency, one that resonates with Nikola Tesla's mind-control rays that have been hidden inside the ironically-named "American Standard" urinals and toilets. It makes it so that everytime you go to the bathroom, you think about the Templars, and the Templars worship Baphomet, whose avatar on this plane takes the form of women seen in pornography. Thus, while in the bathroom, you have an urgent need to get online and look at those smutty web-sites. Once you're online, Tesla's rays kick into overdrive, and you begin seeing visions of Harry Truman instructing you on how to murder Communist babies.

    Naturally, the only defense of this, short of assailing the fortresses of the OTO and Zionist forces hidden in the city of Agharti within the hollow Earth, is to purchase my new book, "Zionist Mind-Control Chemtrails and the Illuminati: The TRUTH about Flouride and Free Energy."

    You do realize that there's a real vagina and penis (assuming that's what you're into) on the other end of the camera right? STDs, conception, rape, and abuse go on in the porn industry, so by these ppls logic, stopping the immoral demand will stop the immoral side-effects as well.

    Working with some hayseed name company, set up a script that sets up arbitrary pr0n sites with a specific set of images to choose from.

    Stuff like KRGKGE.com or 3495ww43.com, etc.

    Once the site is up and functioning, I contact a "citizen" in China, who reports the site to the authorities. We split the difference. I keep him fed with pr0n sites, and he sends me money for "finding" them.

    Stupid fucking commie bastards. I could set up 50 sites a day. At $125 per, that's a nice piece of green...

    Thanks for the info but I'm not sure the former man of steel would be that thrilled with news of his death coming up in a discussion of Chinese porn bounties.
    I don't claim to know his feelings on spam in New England but maybe that would have been a better choice.
