Leading Religious Anti-Porn Group Exploits COVID-19 to Spread Propaganda

Leading Religious Anti-Porn Group Exploits COVID-19 to Spread Propaganda

LOS ANGELES — The National Center on Sexual Exploitation (NCOSE), a religiously inspired lobby that is behind the language of the scientifically discredited, multi-state “porn is a public health crisis” campaign, continues exploiting the actual COVID-19 health crisis to persuade corporations to spread their propaganda message.

The group — which has existed under various names since the mid-1960s and which deliberately rebranded as NCOSE a few years ago to deceive the mainstream media — just issued a public letter to McDonald’s Corporation CEO Chris Kempczinski.

The tireless War on Porn crusaders this time around are trying to pressure the fast-food chain to send a letter to all their employees "to make them aware of the exploitation and harms of the pornography industry."

This latest attempt by NCOSE to flood the mainstream with their fringe messages (e.g., they consider Sport Illustrated full-on “pornography”) was prompted by an offer by adult content platform IsMyGirl to help the fast-food chain’s employees during the economic crisis.

“As a result of the coronavirus, many people have not been able to go work and earn a living,” announced IsMyGirl’s Evan Seinfeld in a press release. “To supplement their incomes, people are turning to the online adult entertainment industry.”

Seinfeld explained that, besides earning income, models could conduct their business from the comfort and safety of their home and enjoy "a legitimate option" to provide for their families.

This prompted NCOSE to attempt to hijack the IsMyGirl and IsMyGuy campaign by compelling McDonald’s leadership to spread stigmatizing information about sex workers.

NCOSE’s Patrick Trueman wrote to the McDonald’s CEO that he had “discovered that pornography websites are targeting workers who are financially affected during the coronavirus,” and tried to push his hand by referring to unrelated “legal actions McDonald’s employees have recently taken towards corporate regarding sexual harassment” to emphasize how “important and timely” it was for him to respond.

Trueman also included his own stigmatizing spin on a study that claims that “female adult film performers have significantly worse mental health and higher rates of depression than other California women of similar ages.”

The absurd goal of this latest morality intervention by NCOSE is to demand a multibillion company help them spread fringe religious propaganda to minimum wage employees.

The message: a Victorian warning that safe, at-home sex work is a fate worse than starvation during this pandemic.
