Today, in "Yet more Democrats clapping like trained seals to support religious conservatives attempt to police the internet FOR THE CHILDRENSSSS," Sen. Elizabeth Warren enthusiastically teams up with nightmarish ghoul Marsha Blackburn to allow GOP AGs to restrict LGBTQ content:

The @guardian on its anti-porn propaganda bullshit again:
- this deliberately erases all online pornography that does not feature women at all (did you know gay porn *exists*?)
- erases women who work solo
- insults EVERYONE who makes consensual porn
Adult videos, HCE the report proclaims, "meet the legal definition of acts of torture and barbarism."
The report makes no distinction between consensual and unconsensual sex, acting and not acting, or even fiction and reality.
If you thought US religious conservatives had a monopoly on unhinged, crackpot theories about the porn industry, and calls for state censorship and broad criminalization of all sexual expression...
Check out the notions of this French government office led by rabid SWERFs:

Stop what you're doing and WATCH THIS.
@internetmaggie produced this fantastic, spot-on video explaining some EXTREMELY important issues concerning sexual expression online, sex work and the War on Porn, starting with a wonderful explainer on how platforms work.
WATCH. THIS:
Porn, Platforms & Sex Panic
The new Online Safety Bill grants wide powers to the UK politicians and bureaucrats appointed to communications regulator Ofcom to target material they consider "harmful."
UK anti-porn propagandists have virtual control of the media to allege all manner of absurd "porn harms."
The U.K. Parliament has passed the much delayed Online Safety Bill, despite vocal criticisms by virtually all digital rights and free speech organizations and advocates.
The bill essentially re-establishes content-based state censorship in the U.K.:

The editorial also called for an eventual federal policy to target adult content, urging the U.S. to “join other nations in adopting a uniform national strategy for youth online safety.”
The @PittsburghPG wants Pennsylvania to pass a copycat "age verification" law based on Louisiana's (drafted by a religious therapist) and the Texas law (currently stopped over a serious constitutional challenge). The latter forces adult websites to post anti-porn propaganda.
