and especially bad here because they basically built an entire infrastructure for sex trafficking under the guise of "sexual wellness tech companies" like OneTaste that allowed them to normalize this to the extent that people get paid taxed wages for it

OneTaste billed itself as a sexual wellness business centered on "orgasmic meditation." Prosecutors said former leaders subjected victims to sexual and emotional abuse.

The sexual-wellness company OneTaste specialized in “orgasmic meditation,” a ritual focussed on the female orgasm. But the company’s leadership preyed on young, impressionable women who were seduced by the idea of sexual freedom.

Begging you to read one of the many pieces written about OneTaste, an actual sex cult that lured people in with sex, sexually abused them, and used sex to control them

The OneTaste case.

The gov’t doesn’t dispute that ppl came & went from OneTaste as they pleased, nor that they nominally consented to all activity. But it suggests that psychological manipulation rendered people's consent meaningless—that effectively, yes meant no

I love documentaries about hustlers, conmen, vaporware "disruptors" etc, especially if they take a spectacular fall at the end. So I immediately queued up the OneTaste documentary on Netflix and it is is thee wildest thing I have ever witnessed. Silicon Valley is deranged

Sorry what's OneTaste, what's NAR (which Aella's dad is anti?) and how is she involved in sex trafficking? I'm very surprised and confused!

"if we build enough homes for all the people who want/need to live in sf to be able to afford to go out and enjoy their lives, commercial rents will go up as places open to serve them, and the Nexium/OneTaste-style sex cult I'm trying to build will get evicted!!!!!!"
