Republicans are drunk with power. What a stupid fucking idea. There’s no chance of banning porn. Then they wouldn’t be able to jerk to Trans women and feel shame after.

Trans women are hot, in case that reads as though the shame is correct. It’s not.

The Puritans are still ruling in that stupid country.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 24 points 5 hours ago

The American porn industry is as big as Hollywood. This is a big billions of dollars market. And the US porn industry provides 90% of international porn. So Trump and his GOP wants to kill the one last American industry where the US is world market leader by far.

And I can easily see this industry moving to countries where actors are cheaper and less protected from abuse, diseases, and whatever else happening in this industry.

While this will make some religious fundamentalists in the US feel superior and give them a sense of a perceived moral high ground, it will actually hurt the most vulnerable people in the chain the most. It will not reduce the amount of porn made, it will just make it much, much worse for those involved.

Conservatives keep saying they're for the common people.

Are they? Are they really? Seems to me they're really busy doing stuff that regular folks hate.

[–] madjo@feddit.nl 2 points 3 hours ago

What these "people" are doing has nothing to do with conservative values anymore either, these "people" are modern day regressives. They want to drag the nation back about a century. Women without a vote, black people again as slaves, and queer people back in the closet.

Didn't you get the update? It is "Land of the formerly free" now. Was in an Executive Order somewhere, probably.

I wonder how Kanye feels about his homies trying to take away his favourite internet activity.

Brought to you by a president who f****d a pornstar and paid her off by falsifying business records.

Clown world for a clown species.

Under the bill, content would be considered obscene if it appeals to prurient interests in nudity

And since they've already taken away due process, they're basically paving the way to send anyone who has a body they don't like to a death camp. I don't think it's hyperbole anymore to say that that US is fucked.

[–] Akuchimoya@startrek.website 2 points 11 minutes ago

This is basically how we ended up with the burqa. A woman's body is evil because it makes men unable to control their sexual urges, therefore women must be banned. Now, in Afghanistan, a woman's voice must not even be heard.

How long until the USA reaches that point?

For no reason whatsoever, I know there is a subset of adult artistic moving picture genres devoted to fully clothed activities.

I. Dare. You.

If they want a "civil war" this is the way to get one, lol

[–] Birch@sh.itjust.works 10 points 5 hours ago

It might actually be their intention, keep pushing until you get unrests and then they can declare martial law and kill anyone they deem left or woke

If it'll get you the chair now, I'm worried what it would get you after the bill is passed.

This is about getting people breed more. Honestly, I see this motive in all of their policies. The real reason republican politicians hate people who fall into the LGBTQ spectrum is because they can't produce new children and even when they can they're probably much less likely to. They want to get rid of porn, contraceptives, women's rights, and alternative lifestyles and at the same time try to entice people to have kids. If you want to fight against their agenda then don't have kids.

[–] Grimtuck@lemmy.world 3 points 31 minutes ago

If only there was another way to increase the population like accepting people from other nations. Too bad.

[–] voytrekk@sopuli.xyz 12 points 7 hours ago (3 children)

Unfortunately those that believe in their ideology will keep having kids. As an anecdote, my Trump loving cousins have a total of 18 kids compared to the total of 2 for those that aren't. Most of those kids will go on to follow their parents political and ideological beliefs.

[–] KumaSudosa@feddit.dk 4 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

This is truly the issue. Uneducated extremists are and will by far outbreed ideologically sane people who tend to doubt society, our existence, and bringing children into the world. Personally I don't believe in the future so I don't see a point in ruining my life with a child's weeping and cleaning poop just for it to grow up and have to be part of this circus of the maniacs.

Check this guy's computer first. Guarantee there's some fucked up shit on there. It's always projection.

Mike Lee is a full-blown Mormon, which heavily frowns upon porn in any form (including literal prophetic teachings calling women "walking pornography"), so he absolutely does have porn on his devices.

Source: grew up Mormon, was taught this by leadership

[–] madjo@feddit.nl 1 points 2 hours ago

And their definition of "porn" is so broad, it's bordering on ridiculous.

Of course it's that fucking senator from my fucking state. If this actually somehow passed and was somehow enforceable, Utah would be one of the most affected states. Mormons love their porn. The numbers don't lie.

[–] Retrograde@lemmy.world 5 points 6 hours ago

Ah, Utah. One of the most beautiful yet fucked up places in all the lands

[–] Ravenfreak@discuss.online 23 points 9 hours ago (3 children)

Oh look, the Republicans are doing what they always try to do control what we do with our lives. I'm sure this guy has some shady content downloaded onto his computer.

[–] KumaSudosa@feddit.dk 2 points 5 hours ago

The hell? These dudes have been telling me that my country is against freedom since they got into power but it's actually the opposite? What a surprise

Oh no. If this happens Canada could lose its "shut pornhub down" card. How dare the US take that gun and willingly shoot itself in the foot?

What's next, they'll start taxing themselves on Europe's use of their digital goods and send the money to Europe before they can impose the taxes on their consumers? 47D chess moves here.

Project 2025, aka New Gilead in full swing.
