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.

i live in such an atheist bubble. i'm constantly shaking my head at the fact that we haven't woken up to how many problems religion creates. every day that we don't do a massive purge and/or reeducation camp imprisonment of all theists allows this ridiculous charade to keep going.

[–] madjo@feddit.nl 2 points 8 hours ago

I watch atheist content creators on youtube do take downs of theistic arguments.

I have been out of religion for so long that I can't fathom those theists not realizing their idiocy.

And those theists always come with such strawmen "You believe we come from a rock" (no, that's not what atheism entails, but you do believe we come from dirt, so that's actually what you believe), "why do you hate god?" (how can I hate something I don't believe exists?) "You should read the bible" (I did, cover to cover, it made me atheist, you should do it too for a change)

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.

Probably Europe, eastern Europe is already pretty populair for that market and otherwise countries like The Netherlands where sex is well normal and we don't treat it otherwise.

Problem is onlyfans putting more money in the wallets of the performers and not into the political-industral complex.

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.

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 4 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I'm loath to search 'mike johnson porn.' Could you provide background, please?

[–] BigPotato@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Mike claims to have an app on his phone that restricts such content and that he made his son his accountability partner... To not look at porn.

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.

Conservatives keep saying they’re for the common people.

They are, they just didn't say ouotloud that are for the common people being jailed/deported.

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 11 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

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 8 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.
