Ian and Jaedon are back with an in-depth discussion of the problem of online pornography. OnlyFans is a website similar to Patreon—where people can subscribe to paid "content creators" of various topics. Unlike Patreon, OnlyFans does not have a restriction on pornography and adult content which has lead to it becoming a major player in online pornography and leading to the uprising of the "stripper-influencer lifestyle". The primary subject of discussion is on the framing of this "stripper-influencer lifestyle" and the real problems that stem from people who both create and consume this content.
