I don’t understand, why not just mandate that parents should implement parental controls or something instead of blocking it for everyone? I think this is more the religious right agenda in action. Edit: not what pornhub did, but what TX was trying to do

Texas needs to control people because they believe in small government. How else do you display freedom and amall government other than restricting rights and punishing people? /s

That's likely what they wanted and pornhub said "no, were not spending money to implement your fascist bullshit, instead no porn for you. Good luck."

The murder and rape rate are about to skyrocket in Texas sadly enough.

They already had 26,000 rape related pregnancies, just 26,000 rape related pregnancies, NOT 26,000 total rapes.

I thought the same thing when I read that. I mean, there are other porn sites, but it'll still drive up sexual assault.

Pornhub will lead the way, it's extra cost and no business wants that shit.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 25 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Because they oppose porn for everyone

[–] acetanilide@lemmy.world 15 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Except the gay porn, for themselves

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago (3 children)

They oppose that too. Many are the Anthony Comstock type

That motherfucker singlehandedly proved that free speech in the US is a myth.

The whole biography was yikes and somehow got worse with every line

Yeah he’s a real son of a bitch. And his legacy still haunts us.
