General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

I'll be honest, looking at the comments, I'm kind of shocked at just how many people are into strangulation porn.
Most kinks I can see the appeal, even if it doesn't do it for me personally. Strangulation stuff, though, just looks overly-aggressive and rapey. I get some people might like how it feels, but as porn, the visuals don't present as consensual or fun.

I briefly dated a man who often choked me, despite me explicitly asking him not to every time. He thought it's harmless and said he saw it "on TV". He never asked permission either. For me, it was uncomfortable and scary. I approve of the ban. It's scary how chocking is normalized when it's potentially very dangerous for a partner.
