SCOTUS working hard to install Taliban 2.0
Don't even act like the SCOTUS upholds the Constitution, they uphold the christian bible now. So unamerican.
You'd think they don't consider that decisions like this will create more Luigi's, ironically enough from their own base.
We're going to see a lot more of these challenges to SCOTUS precedent in the coming years. The Dobbs decision was them stating loud and clear that they will find any excuse to justify their prefud8ced decisions.
it's so shocking that the right-wing's commitment to free speech was entirely performative and predicated on no principle whatsoever
Yes.... Shocking... I am shocked
Coincidentally, I just rewatched this the other night (for like the thousandth time). I feel like it gets more and more poignant (and TLJ's acting impresses me more) as I get older...
And it does kind of apply here. In the film, Jones' character is just at a loss as to "who the hell these people are" after witnessing their apparently nihilistic and seemingly random murder spree.
I feel that in my bones now. Who the fuck are these psychopaths?
Ain't the point of a right that it's protected from the government?
That’s why it goes through the courts
Noooo haha we we can't fix your real problems that you want us to fix because of how we think some witch hunter in the 1600s relates to the constitution, and politics is just hard and moves slow :(
Anyway, here, we shitcanned the constitution for something pretty much nobody asked for and won't actually fix anything. Enjoy <3
I'm calling it right now. They use this as first amendment cover for TikTok.
You gotta be a really profoundly uncomfortable, nervous human being to think of sex as bad.
What an absolute sign of weakness.
You don't have to think sex is bad to think porn is bad for children and teens.
This Texas law and others like it are bullshit, but making strawman arguments about them isn't helping anything.
Or, and hear me out on this one, you're a member of a group, like various other groups, that want to control every aspect of human lives, including sex, to bind them to our little group forever so we can control them even more?
You gotta be a really profoundly uncomfortable, nervous human being
That's an interesting way to say "religious".
Project2025 and it's evangelical backers are a major driver of this prudishness.
It's fringe fanatical Catholics on the Supreme Court who are driving this. Maybe they couldn't find enough fundies who knew how to read.
They're godsdamned freaks is what they are. Their religion says sex is disgusting and evil. Mine says it's holy and pleasure is sacred. But neither of us should get to decide the law based on what gods we got. I know that. Jewish Americans know that. Hindu Americans know that. Muslim Americans know it too. And I ain't seen Buddhists trying to ban alcohol in any city in America, nor shinto folks trying to divert public school money to preaching about amaterasu. Turns out it's just the Christians round here who don't get that when your religion says you can't do something it means you don't get to do it, but the rest of us are more than free to.
Kids are gonna start finding porn the old-fashioned way: randomly coming across discarded magazines at the park. That was my first experience.
"Woods" or "Field" porn was surprising common. I was honestly surprised to hear that was so many of my friends (and my) introduction to porn.
Guess that's one way to get kids outside these days. Just scater some porn mag pages in the woods, modern-day scavenger hunt.
Do kids even go wandering through the woods anymore, seems like all that land is housing developments now?
Good luck finding a magazine anywhere any more. I assume they can still find it online from random small websites, like in the old days.
I was kind of just pointing out that a lot of kids don't go out looking for porn. Porn somehow just shows up because adults are irresponsible.
Or torrents... It would be funny if this just ended up teaching new generations how to torrent.
I think Epstein highlighted that there is a much bigger problem going on than some 15 year old looking up “mum gets railed by football team”.
Too bad he's not around to testify. They did a great job of murdering him behind bars.
Bars... Barr... hmm.
If we're banning content harmful to children why dont we start with Capitalist propoganda and religious indoctrination :3
And those brain washing shows on YouTube
*rotting
Both are accurate
