Porn industry is certainly a bad thing though. It is quite hostile to women, and many have been harmed by it and wished they had a good exit.

Bit I definitely agree that progressive lean is a good thing. Fwiw I didn't read this article.

The modern porn industry is much more independent than it used to be. Most creators control and own their content and choose where it gets uploaded initially. In the past, the porn business was absolutely abusive to their stars but I think it's much less the case these days. Filmmakers have to fight for actors because if they don't treat them well or pay them their worth, they'll just post their own content directly to their fans. I'm sure there are still huge negatives but I just don't think it's as bad as it once was and I certainly don't think the porn industry is something to be upset about these days.

I know women in porn who say the opposite.

Certainly some will say that, and even more would do if your environment is privileged (such as a safe neighborhood in the west or USA). You have to look at aggregate data, not anecdotes.
