A lot of you are way too caught up on this porn shit.
Porn doesnt create degeneracy, it funnels it into the bedroom or wherever your computer is. Before porn people would just go out and rape women to fulfill their fantasies. Or they would rent some trafficked girl who would be a slave to some thug pimp.
You have an extremely naive and sheltered view of the world if you think porn is some great evil that corrupts people.
Porn likely saved thousands, maybe millions of lives simply by getting the worlds Ted Bundys and Jeffrey Dahmers to lock themselves up in a room by themselves instead of going out to prey on real people. There is no reason to give the government an inch over porn.

Did nobody ever tell you about the human trafficking within the porn industry?

The proliferation and widespread distribution of porn via the internet and the subsequent mass sexual desensitization has objective and recognizable downsides on the mental wellbeing of a large portion of the US, especially minors.

The idea that pornography is completely harmless is fucking retarded and 20 years out of date. If it was just teenagers sneaking a playboy out of their dads dresser once in a while it'd be a different story, but after the internet there's fuckin... sissy hypno tranny rape incest gangbang furry scatplay vore plastered all over a hundered-thousand different sites that anyone can access instantly.

It's gotten so bad that younger people, the ones who have historically been the absolute horniest, are actively deriding porn and overt sexualization. It's become so common that teenagers are sick of it. I think that says a lot.

I mean, this has ultimately always been the problem with 1A jurisprudence wrt obscenity - how do you unambiguously determine what is purely obscene and what is protected speech? Is an art hoe taking nude OF pictures of herself with "FREE GAZA" pornographic or is it an artistic political expression? Do we have to show ID to use twitter now because people post lewd photos and drawings on it? What level of lewd ultimately makes something obscene?

My gut feeling is that a lot of this is going to get neutered as courts have to tackle this on a case-by-case basis and the case law will probably get quite messy.

It will be as neutered as state laws requiring pornographic magazines to be wrapped in black plastic or barring them from being sold in stores that admit minors, which is not very neutered at all.

Basically for all of these questions, replace "the internet" with "the gas station" and look at how states & courts have handled those cases. You'll find that they really haven't had much trouble at all.

Go check out the gooner thread and say that. You've got people starting hypnosis cults to mantle tulpa-alters and praying to Satan to be possessed by porn demons so they can masturbate to suicide. Almost everything I just said is in that post linked there; I highly recommend checking it out.

This stuff is how you get Bundys and Dahmers.

And you want these people to actually go outside.

All it really means is that gooners now need to show a card at the door. Get fucked. I need to show a card any time i buy a box of ammo in a store. Fuck yourselves. Too many groomed kids exist for this shit to continue.

They'll play favorites as always. Any site the judges like will remain up and those that aren't politically aligned will be shut down and the laws will be used as a bludgeon for them to do so.

And again, the Internet is not something that you just dump something on. It's not a big truck. It's a series of tubes. And if you don't understand, those tubes can be filled and if they are filled, when you put your message in, it gets in line and it's going to be delayed by anyone that puts into that tube enormous amounts of material.

I'm not a huge Trump guy, but I have to respect the fact that he's actually doing something. I'm a younger guy so this is the first time in my life a president is following through and making big changes. I thought his second term would be as uneventful as the first but ho boy has he been busy.

I wasn't either that much, I liked him and voted him over Hillary of course. I said early last season at best I thought he'd be less bad than Biden this time. But he's really done beyond so much that I don't see how anyone but the crudest and lamest boomers can't be at least like 'yeah, he's done alright'.

The problem is, actually starting a family and having kids is way more expensive than searching up porn. The housing market has gone tits-up, childcare costs are a bitch, and that's not even going over the mess of potential divorce filings and alimony payments. With marriage and raising families becoming a minefield, only the more religious youngsters manage to breed, because some religions like Catholicism don't believe in divorce.

Also, today's teenagers are raised by millennial SJWs who deride porn and sexually explicit content as objectifying and degrading. Turns out the third-wave SJW feminist ideology isn't really engendering much hype for sex when the things that would typically make kids horny are derided by polite society as objectifying and degrading.

I suppose being replaced by 3rd worlders has a couple benefits.... then again, I think recent middle east news has made the (((Statists))) realize they need a tiny amount of concessions to get more Whites to die for them in the coming conflicts. Still not dying for Judea though.

My state is ran by boomers so our Porn ID law only applies to Pornhub lol. Literally every other porn site still doesn't require an ID. The boomers who wrote the law thought that Pornhub was the only porn website. It's been like this for years.

Pornhub = Bad.

Reddit /r/porn = GOOD TO GO!

At some point, politicians HAVE to know how ineffectual it is.
