While I don't agree with banning things, porn is a huge problem.
I'm going to need a citation from that...one that doesn't come from a group advocating Christian morals.

Federal government seriously needs to reign in the states' bullshit
Although it doesn't explicitly target porn sites, the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) has provisions that may lead to ID requirements to prevent minors from accessing nebulously defined inappropriate content. The bill is bipartisan and being heavily pushed in Congress alongside other bills that would effectively end privacy and encryption, and give the government much more control over what happens online (EARN IT, STOP CSAM, etc.). Check out the EFF website for more information.

this probably won't work especially well, but why is trying to prevent 18+ content being seen by minors considered to be a bad thing?
Because almost nothing that is done legislatively "for the children" actually is. Outside of a handful of people involved in the process, nobody is thinking about children here. This is about thinking nobody should be watching porn, and about normalizing stricter control and monitoring of what people do online. Louisiana's version of this actually requires you to use your state ID to watch porn. Sure, internet usage is already tracked, but having to flash your ID and having said ID directly tied to that midget bondage you're about to watch is another level of invasive.

Right now, these bills are easy to circumvent, but they are still steps down a dangerous path. As I mentioned above, there is federal legislation being considered that could censor whole swaths of the internet. The Republican narrative paints LGBT+ people as dangerous to children. How long before you need an ID to learn about drag or gay people or abortion? Or how long before companies can't host content like that at all due to legal liability? That legislative future may be much closer than you think, and the conservative Supreme Court won't do a thing.

Because where does it fucking end? How about parents do the parenting thing and tough shit if their kids see something they shouldn't. It's usually hypocritical what is considered adult anyway. I thought we hated the government playing morality police, but I guess that only applies to telling people that hating gay people is wrong.

ahh, so slippery slope?

magazine, you guys need to read roe v wade.

thomas very clearly invited chuds to challenge all sorts of civil rights protected by the right to privacy. This is one of those rights.

whats on the target here is the right to privacy, and once SCOTUS kills it, gay marriage, interracial marriage, certain sexual practices and other rights like that go away too, because they depend on the right to privacy

I was more trying to mean it's arbitrary and they'd have to go all the way down said slope to find any kind of logic to this "think of da children" bullshit. They really just hate people living a way they don't want to live and they make up bullshit justifications to ban things. "The government shouldn't tell you what to do or think, except us because we're not the government. Government is a bad word that means liberals. We're just ensuring common sense and God continue to rule the day." I'm not even going to say they're being hypocrites because this is exactly how Republicans want to operate

Honestly the mods are pretty bad at their jobs. But thats because the rules are so stupidly written.

Ironically with the way the mobile dite functions they should be a bit more wary since the ads are definitely linking to porn.

The current narrative is that children need to be protected and that parents and reasonable people want this legislation. There are Democrats who are against porn and adult content, just for different reasons than Republicans.

Not only are guns the leading cause of death for U.S. kids and teens, but research shows us that 18- to 20-year-olds commit gun homicides at triple the rate of adults 21 years and older," said Janet Carter, Everytown Law's senior director of issues and appeals.

But don't look at people fucking!

This is bullshit, it's an undue burden on MY right to read/look at whatever the fuck i want to.

These laws hurt American sex workers, porn stars more than anything. It potentially allows artists and writers to be sued as well.

This is why you should be 21 to get a gun license.
