"I’ve never come across an anti-kink take that offered a solution to its perceived problem that didn’t include punishment, policing, and imprisonment." wow yes this is it.

absolutely on the same page as you with everything and it feels like you could've pulled an almost identical tweet from someone who wasn't a Black woman.

you're right, it's a tweet that surfaces quite a lot. i used this one because it went viral last week and ruffled a lot of feathers, and i thought it would be a topical entree to this subject. do you mind explaining why the author being a Black woman is a problem?

the role that blackness plays in kink is incredibly complex/the reasons why black folks might not fuck with kink is rooted in kink communities being historically incredibly white etc
