        im honestly baffled how anyone could think hexbear is "the moral panic site", or be this supremely confident of their own ability to hoodwink the userbase here into supporting a hateful bill. this is the most trans-positive site I've found on the internet

            ah okay, guess I misunderstood the main point of your comment— and I forgot that since I have ignored most of the struggle session topics around personal consumption, I have probably missed some heated arguments over porn.

            adult content

            Are you implying that sex trade abolitionists are equivalent to queer bashers?

                I'm genuinely trying to figure out what you're talking about because "hexbear would support this bill if the GOP disguised the language a little more" is something that could only possibly be the result of some previous beef, and that was the most plausible scenario I could come up with.

              Using the capitalist state to punish people who post sexual content isn't sex trade abolition though, it only facilitates a culture of secrecy that makes those affected more vulnerable

                Ok but who's advocating for that?

                I spend months at a time away from this site, so I'm just trying to figure out what previous drama would cause this person to think that the site is full of moral panic puritans, and "adult content" jumped out at me.

        A lot of people are pushing back on your comment but a while ago someone on here was defending a very similar censorship bill passed in Utah because it was anti-porn.

            In my experience the types of people who become full on anti porn have had traumatic sexual experiences so I try to keep that in mind.

            Yeah we're a bit prudish, not even just about porn but about anything that could imply being sexual. You make one thirsty comment or call someone hot and you get the volcel vanguard on your ass!

        If things legitimately got that bad here I'd leave the site and permanently log off. I know it's got flaws ATM but I think the mods have done a good job of keeping the reactionaries posing as leftists out.

        I guess thats reassuring. I still wish this wasnt the moral panic site, like im sure If i branded the bill differently I could get many people here onboard.

        ???

        You're not wrong, people here support China banning porn for all ages, they're just iffy about the US doing it. If this bill was only for censoring porn and nothing else we would probably see some support for it

        Wut? Are you posting on the right site? Theres no way you could get people on this site to be in favor of an anti trans bill no matter how you phrased it. Can you provide some examples of the moral panic you're referring to? Mostly so mods can go ban the people responsible because that's not what's going on here.

            Well for the record I don't think you're crazy and I'm not trying to be mean. I'm just surprised to see this take and am curious as to where it's coming from. I get not having the energy to engage in it though, hope you're feeling better soon
