MODERATORS
What's your question? Have you never seen conservatives scapegoat a minority group before?
I found that confusing too, but I guess it pairs well with
Yep. They want to make it illegal for trans people to exist and don't seem to understand why that would be a problem.
I think it's mostly the association/"logic" being literally incomprehensible to someone with even the slightest capacity for reason. Classifying an entire group of people as "pornographic" is just so insanely nonsensical, it's difficult to look at and think of it as anything other than some insane word salad.
What does being classified as a pornographic person entail
It means they will be persecuted in various creative ways. More than they are already, I mean. Could be anything from forbidding them from certain places and occupations to rounding them up and putting them in death camps. They're intentionally vague about how far they plan to go.
The second. DeSantis already is playtesting this in FL by classifying, basically, being LGBT+ in public as "sexual" and making a law where sex offenders against children have the death penalty on the table. Since you're in public, there's a good chance CHILDREN could see you, so...well, you can fill in the rest.
