That's exactly what is going on. I've tried to interject that message in here, but it was over-looked. There's more as well, but until I've done more research, I won't get into it.

Censorship, privacy and government overreach will become huge issues very soon. Might be a good time to stop sleeping and figure out how to stop it before we are all fcked. Is there a playbook on "how to start an authoritarian regime", readily available, cuz this kinda smells like that. :1orglaugh

Maybe a reach, but still, worth looking into. I mean, who the fuck thought these laws would become reality? Apparently, the best legal team didn't, so, just saying...

EDIT (ADDED):

Tactics often employed in the "Authoritarian Playbook":

Politicizing Independent Institutions:
Gaining control over institutions like the civil service, law enforcement, and the judiciary to serve the regime's agenda.

Spreading Disinformation:
Using propaganda and controlling information flow to undermine public trust and manipulate public opinion.

Expanding Executive Power:
Undermining checks and balances and consolidating power within the executive branch.

Suppressing Dissent:
Limiting free speech, restricting opposition, and punishing critics through legal or regulatory means.

Scapegoating and Delegitimizing Groups:
Creating divisions within society by targeting vulnerable groups and using them as scapegoats.

Any of this sound familiar? Limiting free speech is in the list.

Putting it out here for discussion...

What if the UK is the "pilot project" for these laws and they then become mandatory worldwide?

That one will get thousands more people to sign the petition.

You have seen nothing yet.

So people now must sent their info to Musk, Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Tik Tok and the guys of Pornhub would could make their own Epstein list. Of course the government will ask for the data and arrest you if you post something "....foob" on internet.

I feel a lot saver!

maybe i feel more safe with the EU Chatcontrol. Just rebranded as ProtectEU. They will watch and keep all your social media, including whatsapp. All your private message will be scanned with AI to look for something suspicious.

Who voted for these people?

This is world wide. Not proj 2025 moron. This is 5 eyes

Why is everyone so fucking MEAN to each other? Why?

We're all tryna make a buck off people jerking off! C'mon man! (Biden voice)

Interesting theory for sure. I don't know enough about govt structure in other countries, so maybe someone else can chime in on this, but thanks for sharing.

Obviously, the "Internet" is accessible worldwide, so yes, the age verification for sure, but you don't think there's a lot more to this here in the US? I have no doubt there is. I'll post some other info in a few minutes, feel free to share your thoughts on the theory itself. Thanks

Anyone is welcome to post here, even Yamato! Unless of course it violates the rules, is a personal attack, incites violence, you know, all the usual stuff not protected. Otherwise, free speech forever man. I'll have to admit, the c'mon man part gave me a laugh. Thanks for your input.

Interesting indeed, and the making of an epstein list is probably very likely with all this.

And the arrest part you mentioned got me thinking further on this. It is very obvious the agenda is to criminalize porn, no question about that.

So, you might be on to something here...and looking at this lawsuit and how they are describing porn, yeah...I can see an "epstien list" in the making, but for people who watch porn. Next thing you know, those who watch, sell, make, distribute porn will all be considered criminals.

I don't have the exact details of the lawsuits (4 total), but they were filed by the National Center on Sexual Exploitation (NCOSE) and a Kansas law firm on behalf of a minor child and the child's mother. If you look at the verbiage already being used to describe porn by the lawfirm.

"According to NCOSE, pornography is harmful to children because it disrupts the natural formation of children's sexual functions and maturation. Studies have also shown links between pornography and sexual violence and a litany of other health and well-being issues."

Attempting to create a link between porn and violence.

A couple examples:

Senator Mike Lee (Utah)
Unenforceable definitions have allowed pornography companies to infect our society, peddle smut to children, and do business across state lines unimpeded.

“Our bill updates the legal definition of obscenity for the internet age so this content can be taken down and its peddlers prosecuted.”

Representative Miller said that their legislation “equips law enforcement with the tools they need to target and remove obscene material from the internet, which is alarmingly destructive and far outside the bounds of protected free speech under the Constitution.”

The congresswoman added that she and Lee see it as their mission to “safeguard American families and ensure this dangerous material is kept out of our homes and off our screens.”

Several states, like Utah, have passed resolutions declaring pornography a public health crisis.


Project 2025
This conservative policy blueprint calls for out-lawing all pornography and describes it as "the omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology and sexualization of children," asserting that its purveyors are "child predators and misogynistic exploiters of women". The plan argues that pornography "has no claim to First Amendment protection" and its producers and distributors should be imprisoned, librarians who stock it “classed as registered sex offenders” and tech companies that facilitate its spread shut down.


There's a shit ton more, but just wanted to show a couple. Who knows wtf is going on, but none of it looks good. Thanks for sharing.

It's everywhere. I don't like it. It's cycles though. One day the "My way of the highway" crowd will have the air let of their tires. For starters.

On this side of the pond, it was you guys... to pwn da libz.

On this side of the pond, this is Project 2025 in full swing bro, whether you like it or not. The world is turning rightarded, but our flavor of rightardism that affects us here in this country is Project 2025... what you knowingly voted for and proudly support to pwn da libz.

Congrat🥂

Don't think so, when you look in EU parliament almost all big parties where in favor.
If you can find the voting results, most made anonymous.

But for sure these parties wanted it:
EPP, Renew Europe en S&D. Renew Europe is the party where the dutch party of Mark Rutte joined. The biggest is the Christian fraction.

But in the end parties that act like they are different on national level in Holland, are together in 1 party in the EU.

But seems the parties that are more against expanding influence of the EU are against it.
The green parties, EU adoring parties and social parties love to control the people.

In Australia they want age verification for search engines.

A revolution is needed when people want to protect privacy and anonymous internet.
Most projects started during Corona. When people cried for more control and about "fake" news.

PS, the dutch Police and Public Prosecution Service goit hacked this week. Lost all their data.
I think criminals/foreign states now searching for undercover policeman, whistleblowers and criminal records.
That are the idiots that want encryption prohibited so they can investigate all whatsapp data realtime.

Yeah dude, politicians don't vote against "protecting children" when forced, but who is writing and bringing the legislation to a vote? Here I know exactly who it is.

Well, that was quick. :1orglaugh

Very well said. THey don'T know the real satans are governments in fact.

I kind of agree with you, the government is banning this and now trying to ban VPN´s all due to the porn business and our youth, but reality, it´s to ban freedom, to stop gaming, stop people being able to do what they want and to do what the government says you can do :2 cents:

There's an even wackier, yet real, end goal beyond this. Some people feel like they are going extinct/being replaced on earth, and there's actual credible science to back it up as the world continues to get hotter and less hospitable for their kind (they evolved in the cold).

They need their people actually mating and not beating off alone in their bedrooms and such. They also need them to not have abortions. Can't manifest your people's global parasitic destiny and send them to the much cooler mars to save them from their environmental destruction here if your people are going extinct because of their freedom to jerk off to porn and get abortions.

Welcome to the ground zero of the global rightadation effect. Now you know the only thing the conservatives are actually conserving, and the weird things going on all around the world since Obama will make a little more sense... like certain people in this liberal industry supporting this wackiness to "save themselves" 🍿😎🍿

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

As crazy as this sounds .... definitely makes you wonder.

It doesn't just sound crazy, it is crazy. And it's real. It's all out there. People are just in denial/pretending it isn't happening because of how outrageous it sounds and/or they need this to happen without any hiccups because god forbid they mix genetics (like the thriving brown folks everywhere) and/or care about the environment long enough to evolve naturally with it and survive here. The rapid environmental destruction/global parasitic Minecraft games pays for all this.

Like Russ Vought said out of his own mouth before being hired by Trump to get this shit started, it's all in the "framing" to get the support and votes for this. Hence the self-destructive cults for it all we're dealing with now, everywhere. They think they're getting a ticket out too just for looking/acting the part.

And almost forgot, don't forget the war on the gays. Can't save your peoples if they have the freedom to do gay stuff. Good luck out there folks, these next few years are going to be pure insanity. It comes in cycles, and the last couple of cycles lead to World Wars. One of these cycles will be the last... hopefully it isn't this one.

🍿😎🍿

Why you think all the young guys just got reintroduced to the Great Replacement Theory again? The house of cards we built will implode without bodies and if you hate brown people there's only one way to get those.

BREAKING NEWS!
Documents Dating Back To BC Era Just Released

Files that were part of the original "missing commandments" recently discovered in a highly classified file, stored in an undisclosed, secret location and recently released anonymously.

God forbade discussing this.

"Though shall never illude to the fact that satan is the government."

Rumored to be on the list, but have not been confirmed as of yet ...

"Though shall never question authority."

"Though shall always obey and do what your told."

"Though shall give your last dollar to help further the cause."

It also said there will be a man chosen by a "supernatural hand" to lead and save you all.


I am a firm believer that this world is filled with crazy! Not much surprises me these days. Might as well get some laughs in and enjoy what you can.

Maybe this post will become useful after all, at least it's shedding some light on reality in a round about sort of way .... and if not, whatever, add it to the list of every other "fcking around" post .

:helpme:helpme

Even bringing this back on topic, at the end of the day, it still goes back to the government. I mean, the govt wants to criminalize porn (did not make this up, read above). Simple as that .... They have already succeeded in restricting freedom of speech/expression in half of the US, with the other states probably not far behind. Obviously, the only thing you can do is comply or face the wrath. So, while yeah, it may have already happened in some states, there are 20+ other states where is has not happened yet. They have not yet criminalized porn, but they are most likely on their way to making that happen as well. Good luck to all.

if you ever had an idea it would die of loneliness. Very unlikely you have the intelligence to "exchange it"

I'm certain it took you all of those 5 days to come up with that ➡️ INTELLIGENT response.


Here's more advice, since it doesn't look like you've figured out how to create your own thread yet, you just click on the START THREAD button and you can be on your way to "exchange it" with your bros too! Whatever that means ...

💡Extra Tip, No Charge: If you're trying to emphasize a word, it's best to use bold/caps, with maybe a goofy emoji to highlight it, but definitely not quotes.

For example:

You don't appear to be very -->> INTELLIGENT <<--

SEE HOW THAT WORKS.

I was going to just let your comment do it's magic, but screw it, this post needed more entertainment value at this point.

Alright, well thanks so much for posting that extremely helpful info, I gotta get back to being lonely.

If you would have just said:

That would make sense. Then I may have simply responded with a :thumbsup -- doubtful, but possible.

But, honestly, what was the point of your comments? Did either of them add any value?

This post was created for several reasons. Actually, there was a simple question, which as of yet, no one was able to provide an answer. I was not able to find any other cases, aside from the 2-3 that I mentioned, and only 1 maybe 2 were adult related companies.

I suppose the lack of answers is the answer -- that was it, no one else decided to fight it in court. :thumbsup

Like I said, good luck to all!

A buck fiddy flailings

Since this is nearly at the top, I might as well leave some info up in here, in case anyone happens to be reading this when porn gets banned (jk, but you never know). There were some pre-enforcement challenges by the FSC, no idea how many. As an example, in Florida, because of the Supreme Court's RECENT 6-3 opinion in Free Speech Coalition v. Paxton it significantly reduced the chances of a successful challenge to Florida's law, so it was willingly dropped/dismissed. I don't know if that happened / will happen with the other states in the future, but that's about all the additional info I could find.

I don't think this is something that cost billions, or even millions to fight, since it's not un-common for individuals or groups to file pre-enforcement challenges against laws that regulate speech on topics including politics, video games, unions, pornography and many other topics. No idea of the success rate, but regardless, it's possible without having to hire an attorney / law firm. Challenging unjust laws that violate constitutional rights is a hallmark of civil-rights litigation, so I was curious why not many were involved.

I have no idea what happened in Louisiana (if anything) or Utah either, except for this.

"The lack of a viable pre-enforcement constitutional challenge against Utah’s law “is chilling” for adult entertainment companies, said Eidelman of the ACLU. “That means that they have to worry about the possibility of any number of private suits if they don’t follow this law that they view—I view—as unconstitutional.”

Do you have an idea how much it costs to challenge a law to the either a state's supreme court or the US Supreme Court ? Multiple that by 25 for the number of states that will have AVS laws in the next few months.

Lawyers will not be lining up to sue adult companies unless their hourly rates are being paid in advance by an organization such as NCOSE. Lawyers despise working for free. And adult companies, except for the largest ones are not great targets. Lawyers do not know where they are registered, they dont know where their banks are located and whether they have any assets at all. Which makes it doubtful - even in victory, a firm will be able to collect on a judgement. And its highly doubtful that Mom & Dad are going to pay $750 per hour to sue an adult site because they caught Little Timmy jerking off.

Thanks for jumping in this thread.

I'll agree with this:

But, I do believe lawsuits and/or criminal charges (3 states) will be coming soon, as the resources they have available to them are far greater than the private lawsuits you were referring to.

I do have an idea of rates, of course. However, I don't think it's in the billions or 100s of milllions to file a pre-enforcement challenge. I mean really, how much time is involved in filing an initial brief or motion?

And since you asked, in regards to how much attorney's charge, yeah, I think most attorneys charge outrageous fees and I think this system is designed to work in their favor (for the most part). No disrespect, I have no idea how much you charge and my comment is based on my own experiences. But, that's another topic in itself and I can go on and on about it.

Anyway, I'm curious if and/or how this may affect other constitutional rights at some point. Feel free to give some input if you'd like. Appreciate it.

Edit (Added)
Perhaps my original example was not the best, as those companies are clearly well funded. However, it's important to mention that there are numerous cases where businesses or individuals (not so well funded) file lawsuits challenging a law based on alleged violations.
