This sounds like a non-answer, but I think it's really just a sugarcoated truth: There are people with influence that want to impede all of these things, and without tremendous support, they can't be accomplished.

He can support these goals, but he can't make congress vote against their own re-election.

won't ever think of me as an actual human being

I've never really liked that phrasing. I feel like the standards by which it are applied would make for "being thought of as a human being" not applying to most people in our consciousness.

Sure if I'm watching porn, I'm not actively thinking about what the actresses' hopes and dreams and goals are like. I'm not stopping to think about what her human experience is. But I'm not doing that when I watch a movie either. I'm not doing that for every person I meet on the street.

People might not be thinking of you as an actual human being. But they aren't thinking of you as less than one either. Because that's just not how we think. Or at least not about people we have a personal connection to.

And yet it gets used so often, but especially around sex work. I don't think it's the viewers who are the problem here. It's definitely not the actors or actresses either. It's the societal moral superiority that becomes innate in the interaction. It's the idea that the exchange, if it can be called that, that takes place between a viewer and a pornographic actress is inherently wrong. That it can't be called a normal human interaction.

Which is to say that if your viewers really don't see you as a person, it's not because of some cruelty where they don't think you're worth anything human other than your sexuality, it's just because they don't think about the dichotomy at all. To them it just isn't real. Just like they don't stop to ponder the humanity of their waiter or any of the other multitude of people they don't interact with on a personal level.

Don't tell me you're one of those clowns who don't think "stupider" is an acceptable comparative. Because I'll have to fight you.

Not beause of "stupider" but because you're a clown. I swore years ago I'd fight all clowns.

Its because there is nothing as boring and unsexy as baseball.
