I mean, porn use rewires the brain the same way as hard drugs, and has immense negative effects in many areas of life. I think we all know the science on this is quite well established, even if we don't care. Enough.

I don't think we actually do know that. It may light up some of the same areas of the brain, but that's not the same as rewiring it. "Immense negative effects in many areas of life" sounds like moralizing and is anecdotal at best.

Regardless, porn and masturbation aren't the same thing. If awareness of issues associated with pornography is the point of the challenge, then make that known. Don't hide it behind a trite slogan only understood by a limited group of people on the internet. I've also heard it's got something or other to do with testicular cancer awareness, but again, who would know? If this is supposed to call attention to something serious, it's done a very poor job of it.
