I've seen people dismiss the Pornhub bans, sometimes couching their dismissal in an anti-porn stance. What I don't think they realize is that the people pushing this stuff conflate porn with LGBTQ people and sex education and are part of Project 2025

None of it really makes any sense if you think about it.
Analysis didn't work as a search term either.
- they create “pervert watchlists”
- there are already parental controls on ISP’s, browsers, and machines
- wrapping it in “this protects children” makes sure that no politician opposes it bc anyone who does gets opposition ads saying “supports porn for kids”
Take care of your heart, friend. Keep it strong for the fight ahead.
Our lazyness is our undoing.
P2025 doesn't give a shit about whether porn is LGBTQ.
At all.
They want to ban ALL porn. Period.
We're saying that LGBTQ people's mere existence will be labelled as porn.
The only one couching the porn-ban will be VP next week.
As much as I’m a leftist, this is the same reason I do not support a gun registry of any kind.
A goldmine for blackmailers.
And for the bad faith arguments some of you warped this into, don't be dicks. You can be right and still lose.
Someone much more knowledgeable than me has the solution and I need them to step up because this will only get worse if it goes the way they want it to.
This is the beginning of Handmaid's Tale kind of censorship.
"There's no nudes in Gay News, our one magazine,
But they still find excuses to call it obscene."
In the US, in 1986, the Meese Report put the LGBT news magazine The Advocate on its list of obscene publications.
"Pictures of naked young women are fun
In Titbits and Playboy, page three of The Sun"
“Those who forget the past… “ something something.
“First They Came”
* = the psycho freaks that aren't actively trying to fix the problem
there needs to be serious regulations- many “porn” websites made by adults for adults contain child porn - that’s why the US is second in URLs containing CSAM. Often young teens and trafficked people are forced to play older consenting roles
And we can hold both accountable. It not a meta v Pornhub. And also porn websites that are not Pornhub have not made the same efforts to remove illegal porn
It’s spelled out in #Project2025
Every small step they take is a cover for a much bigger cultural demolition.
Payment processing rules from credit card companies, etc, already compelled any company operating above board to crack down on csam, revenge porn, voyeurism and recordings of sex crimes.
Only those that don't will stay
But I 100% don't think MAGA will see it coming and is probably be the one thing they will protest trump over.
I find it hard to believe so many would be okay with it, especially how much they say they are against government interference in their lives.
Given that some of Trump's appointees and allies have been credibly accused of paying for sex with minors, it is obvious they don't care about protecting children.
Step 2: Declare any discussion of LGBTQ+ topics, even if not sexually explicit, pornographic.
Step 3: Now LGBTQ+ sites must shut down unless they verify ID and provide lists of users to red sates.
Step 4: Now the fascists have a list of homosexuals.
They don't care about cis men watching porn, outside of maybe leaking when a dem opponent does it.
You need 2 and 3 to go after the actual goal.
When they say “ban pornography” it means ‘ban mentions of people who aren’t cisgender and heteronormative’
People in censor states need to have a presence for packets in free states.
Abortion, trans rights/healthcare, divorce, marriage equality, porn, drugs, etc. I just hope it creates a catalyst for change in the long run.
I don’t know how to make people believe that this shit is actually going to happen.
As with other forms of sex work, criminalizing it will drive people further underground and make them more vulnerable to abuse and exploitation.
Important to remember everything in the novel was either historical fact or the tech existed at the time to create a cashless society for ex, remove women's agency overnight etc
#TheHandmaidsTaleIsNow
Yeah, same people. They do not have kids best interests in mind.
FSC is arguing for the former. Justice Elena Kagan said that relaxing strict scrutiny could have "spillover dangers" to other free speech cases.
This is how they'll criminalize LGBTQ.
..and Lesbian is their men's go-to rub.
Donald Trump is not ideal for leading the country.
The first enlightenment and its revolutions began underground.
Children should be blocked from these sites and PARENTS need to have the drug abuse, sex and sexuality round table talk I had with my girls when the time came!
