The GOP. This is part of Project 2025. They want to outlaw porn.

> Pornography should be outlawed. The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned. Educators and public librarians who purvey it should be classed as registered sex offenders. And telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered.

Unfortunately I don't think it's that cut and dried.

Here is the list of cosponsors in case anyone was curious if their "representative" is on the list https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/119/s1748/cosponsors

A lot of it would go away if they just stopped consuming it. They consume it at least as much as anybody else. The only difference is the self loathing and belief that they need to be - and are qualified to be - the moral police.

IIRC the onlyfans creators were deemed the desired kind of immigrants. What’s the plan here, lure them in and throw them in jail?

Why not just outlaw sex? If looking at sex is illegal they might as well go all the way.

Because in their philosophy sex serves a purpose (procreation and the deepening of the marital union).

Anything that doesn’t support those two aims (contraception, abortion, gay marriage, pornography etc.) is therefore immoral but there’s nothing wrong with sex in its ‘proper’ context.

It is already outlawed in any practical mean. There is no proper way to consent. If participant changes their mind ten years latter, good luck at court!

What you mean no way to consent? We can talk or use non-verbal communication.

Marriage is by itself not consent for sex and you can't sue somebody to get them to have sex with you either
