The Secret War To Censor The Internet
Recent Lextorias video explains how a 2018 FOSTA-SESTA law amended protections to the Communications Decency Act, and immediately opened the flood gates for targeted harassment of payment processors for adult content censorship.
Evangelists: “Nobody can sexually exploit others but us!”
Another great example of why orginized religion needs to be banned in the modern world.
I called it years ago when my wife first watched The Handmaid’s Tale: I said oh fuck, this is now what the conservatives are going to create. Ever since then I have periodically written online about this, and how we should start getting used to America as Gilead. It started to spread slowly, and I see people make this reference more and more, and I truly hope it’s not too late. Because that’s their goddamn wet dream; to make America into exactly as depicted in those book / shows.
The writer based some of the characters on real people, back when she wrote it in like the 1970s.
The Handmaid’s Tale, was in turn, partly based on how Iran went from an absolute kingdom with a secular urban culture and lifestyle to a male-dominated theocracy.
That the US began largely as a string of colonies run by religious officials, an arrangement those megalomaniacal evangelists are trying to bring back, those pricks literally believing they’re on “holy” land and must live up to it.
Isn’t jealousy why they hate iran?
But they left Europe in part to get away from church government. First amendment and all that. Most of them were religious but they wanted it out of government.
No, they wanted other people’s religion out of government
The funniest thing is hopping on a VPN to avoid porn bans and the state the VPN is in also has a porn ban.
Well, “funny”. It’s actually depressing.
Always has been their goal.
Well, since the 1950s, but this only inspired them with a clear depiction and got them to amp it up even more.
Honestly the Evangelicals are the biggest pedos there are.
Always has been
The next evolutionary step in humanity is ending organized religion.
My religious in-laws as why I dont believe in their god and I have to patiently explain that I view their religion in the same way as I see Greek or Egyptian mythology. Just a silly superstition used to explain things they don’t have actual answers to. They really hate that.
I’ve been figuring out a way to approach these subject with my family when the topic comes up. These Christian fascist that are making these laws are not followers of the Christ. The Christ threw money lenders and business men out of the temple. He didn’t cozy up to them, make deals with them. He didn’t make megachurches and end up protecting pedos. These so called Christians are really perverted by demons.
Or some shit idk. I’m still workshopping how I can break through to some of the religious folks around me.
I appreciate the attempt, but MAGA is a cult. These “religious” people are rabidly following the most unchristlike person alive today. Logic and reason won’t sway them. My advice to my wife is to find the cracks I their faith in this man and slowly tap wedges into them.
There’s also an astonishing amount of dishonesty about the way they operate more generally. They’ve convinced themselves that they don’t need to be ethical, because doing stuff nominally for Jesus is automatically the right thing regardless of the details.
Well I’m gonna look at lots of porn. For Jesus.
Are you trying to tell me that the largest sect of protestant Christianity in the US, which was explicitly founded on the belief that chattel slavery was right and “godly”, might have trouble with respecting the consent of people vulnerable to coercion? /s
They’re a blight on this planet
If you yell and cry enough about dignity laws, maybe people won’t notice what a sex pest you are
ETA: Not OP, the people who always claim to be so chaste
You did not specify your Estimated Time of Arrival. You are not using that acronym correctly.
Apologies. It’s now
The P in GOP stands for Projection.
I thought it stood for pedophile.
One in the same in this regard
One and the same, BTW.
Huh, TIL, thanks!
Anytime!
Patterns is patterns, those motherfuckers aren’t hiding
Sounds like Prohibition Version 2
Ah, this isn’t talking about the big war on adult content in the UK right now that’s across all the headlines. Just for those who wanted to see more on that. This is foreign stuff.
The group that recently went after Steam is from Australia. This isn’t just an American issue.
This affects anyone who relies on American payment processors (Visa, Mastercard, PayPal), so is very much a global issue.
