I think rape porn should be banned because I don't like rape, rapists or the wannabe rapists who watch that stuff. It's unlikely to be banned in this country, however, so some men can continue to get their rocks off thinking about raping, mutilating and killing women, just like Ted Bundy did. For the forseable future, rapists will continue to take precedence over the women and children they rape because that is exactly how too many want it.
The Tea party trope is typical bullshit. I don't know if you're a person who gives a damn about workers rights, but some on this site do. Yet amazingly when those same workers are women, and enslaved women in particular, suddenly we hear a right wing mantra about "choice." "They choose to work in those jobs," just like people choose to work for minimum wage in fast food places. They could get a job as a hedge fund manager if they tried hard enough. Only in the case of the sex industry and porn, a portion of those women don't have choice because they are enslaved. But don't let that get in the way of the pleasure of watching them raped and mutilated.
That you find the fact that feminists oppose porn as news boggles the mind. Google it. Read some feminist theory. You're only fifty years late.
