6-3 Alito writing libcucks dissenting



The court first holds that the parents are likely to succeed on their claim that the policy of not allowing opt-outs unconstitutionally burdens their exercise of their religion.
“we have long recognized," Alito writes, "the rights of parents to direct 'the religious upbringing' of their children. And we have held that those rights are violated by government policies that substantially interfere with the religious development of children."

Sotomayor: The reverberations of the Court’s error will be felt, I fear,for generations. Unable to condone that grave misjudgment, I dissent.

BU-BU-BUT LGBTQIA+ MUSLIMS EXIST!!! HOW COULD THEY BETRAY US?!
1751038551530.webp
Get fucked libnigs. They actually tried to gaslight Americans into thinking that Muslims are the same temperament as Christians/Catholics.
Muslims/Islamists kill faggots, they kill dogs, hate women's rights, will marry an 8 year old girls to grown men if prompted, and will kill you in the name of their pedo messiah in certain areas of the world.

I'm fuckin sick of this religion being tolerated like it has ANY benefit to humanity in this current century. Cannibals and Indiginous tribes in Brazil/Africa have more reasonable laws than Islam.

wasn't it only fans first
2020- when it started
Legal challenges and lawsuits involving adult content platforms like Pornhub and OnlyFans stem from various issues, but Pornhub (and its parent company MindGeek) faced significant lawsuits and allegations before OnlyFans drew widespread scrutiny regarding its content moderation and the posting of non-consensual material.
Pornhub Lawsuits:
Pornhub, owned by MindGeek (now known as Aylo), has been the subject of numerous lawsuits and criticism regarding child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and other forms of exploitation being hosted on its platform.
A federal judge certified a class of survivors in a major lawsuit against MindGeek, allowing individuals who were minors when they appeared in explicit content on MindGeek's platforms to collectively move forward in their legal battle.
Allegations against Pornhub include knowingly profiting from videos of abuse, with lawsuits claiming the company facilitated the sharing of illegal content and did little to stop it.
The #Traffickinghub campaign was launched to shut down Pornhub and hold its executives accountable for alleged complicity in sex trafficking and exploitation.
MindGeek has settled a lawsuit involving 50 women who alleged they were coerced into sex trafficking and that videos of them were uploaded without their consent.
OnlyFans Lawsuits:
OnlyFans has also faced legal challenges related to non-consensual content, deceptive business practices (like using "chatters" to impersonate creators), and automatic renewal of subscriptions without clear consent.
Lawsuits against OnlyFans include allegations that the company allowed individuals to post and profit from illegal content, even involving minors.
Recent lawsuits also claim OnlyFans bribed Meta employees to place competing adult performers on a terrorist watchlist to gain an unfair advantage in the industry.
In summary, while both platforms have been the subject of lawsuits, Pornhub's legal troubles stemming from issues like CSAM and non-consensual content predated the intense scrutiny that OnlyFans currently faces for similar allegations, alongside new issues like deceptive subscriber interactions and anti-competitive practices.

data black pill - i know this is lie
Visa and Mastercard haven't outright stopped all payments related to NSFW content. Instead, they have implemented stricter policies and enforcement actions in recent years, particularly targeting platforms with potential for illegal or non-consensual material.
Here's a timeline of significant actions:
December 2020: Both Visa and Mastercard suspended their credit card services with Pornhub after reports of the site hosting child sexual abuse material and sex trafficking videos.
April 2021: Mastercard implemented new guidelines for adult sites, requiring documented consent and age/identity verification for content creators and depicted individuals.
August 2022: Both companies stopped processing payments for Pornhub's advertising arm, TrafficJunky, following a lawsuit alleging Visa profited from child abuse videos on the site.
2023: Visa introduced stricter rules for "high integrity risk merchants," which include adult-related businesses, requiring banks to monitor transactions more closely to prevent illegal activity.
December 2024: A Visa executive confirmed that the company is halting payment processing services for Japanese retailers selling adult content in order to protect its brand.
In summary: Visa and Mastercard haven't implemented a complete ban on all NSFW content payments, but they have taken significant steps to enforce policies and address concerns about illegal content, particularly impacting platforms with user-generated content. These actions have led to changes on various platforms and have created challenges for some businesses in the adult industry.

Reading the majority opinion's barely-polite excoriation of Jackson is giving me a lawgasm. It basically says, "Not only is this bitch profoundly stupid to the point that I can't even believe she put this shit in writing, she is also living in a world of make-believe with no basis in reality."

It's also calling her lazy and hypocritical.

This opinion still leaves open two broad avenues that can be manipulated to get nationwide injunctions: hastily certified class actions and states suing. It limits injunctions to those with standing, quite specifically. And both the majority and concurrences discuss class actions and third party standing in relation to that holding.

Here is the realistic scenario going forward: deep blue judges will hand wave certify nationwide classes to get the exact same thing. Democrat strategy will also be to have a bunch of states sue together, to get nationwide relief on behalf of their combined populations. This just punts the issue because these district judges don’t believe in the principles of the law, but in using the law as a tool to further their interests. This is quite obvious from Jackson’s concurrence, which straight up just says the quite part out loud.

That at least slows the process of making an injunction down considerably.

It’s probably best that this doesn’t go away completely, as Red States still need to be able to slow down the next Dem president,

Trump just can't stop winning. As much as the media is trying it has been W after W.

Illegal immigrants? None coming in, and the ones already there are being deported. Euros sapping US military spending? Fuck off, raise your spending now because daddy Trump isn't coming to the rescue. Mexico, Canada, China, EU, all economically buck broken in a year.

Also got away with bombing Iran, and actually swore on TV over Israel trying to Jew the ceasefire with an incoming airstrike (jets turned around when the Donald called king kike himself and told him to knock it off, would Kamala have managed anything similar?).
