"Pornography, manifested today in the omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology and sexualization of children, for instance, is not a political Gordian knot inextricably binding up disparate claims about free speech, property rights, sexual liberation, and child welfare. It has no claim to First Amendment protection. Its purveyors are child predators and misogynistic exploiters of women. Their product is as addictive as any illicit drug and as psychologically destructive as any crime. Pornography should be outlawed. The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned. Educators and public librarians who purvey it should be classed as registered sex offenders. And telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered.[20]" — "A Promise to America", Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 5, Project 2025
How about fuck that guy?
I agree, but its not something to laugh off. If Roe v wade being canned taught us anything, it is that conservatives are always planning something worse than what they are telling people.
Right fucking here, they are telling people that they are going to criminalize pornography, full stop. That they are going to arrest and jail people even remotely involved in the porn industry, full stop. Imagine what they actually want to do.
That might be what he really wants
No, I believe people like this when they say they want to turn the USA into a Christian Theocracy.
Is their literally anything that I, a transgender woman, am not a direct cause or symptom of in those deranged and hateful people's minds?
Also, conservatives talking about misogny is sickeningly ironic.
It's only going to get worse. I would suggest arming yourself and becoming proficient for your own self defense if you are comfortable doing so. No, lax gun ownership is not something a civilized country does, but this is not a civilized country.
That is basically my plan, also there is strength in numbers. I want to join or build a queer community so we can support and protect eachother.
I'd heard of project 2025, but had not read anything about it yet. Terrifying.
