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.

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.

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?

[–] dzso@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

The US is heading surprisingly rapidly towards that point. It was a tragedy when it happened in the Middle East. Unfortunately many of the right wing people in the US don't understand this yet.

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

[–] dzso@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Can you spell out for me what you're talking about? I don't understand.

[–] kerntucky@infosec.pub 3 points 6 hours ago

Just search "fully clothed sex" on pornhub.

[–] TheRealKuni@midwest.social 4 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

Eh. This isn’t new. It’s one dipshit senator and one dipshit representative.

People have been trying to get porn banned in the US for as long as there’s been porn.

The bill may not be a new proposal, but the environment it's being proposed in is. It has a far higher chance of passing now, with this government, than it ever has before.

[–] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 21 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

I would not take this lightly, you are not wrong about it going nowhere. For now. All they have to do is convince their voters that porn is woke.

[–] dzso@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago

Don't give them any ideas.
