Why the fuck do they bother writing a law that only applies to minors?
These politicians really don't want anyone messing too much with their porn.
I realize that anything related to child porn will pass more easily, but that's the point. Why shouldn't a law protecting women and all people pass easily, as well?
Part of the problem might be any laws interfering with "expressions" for adults could run into 1st Amendment right conflict.
I don't mind targeting minors IF it is a first step in a longer battle to combat Deep Fakes. Porn will never go away even in places with no 1st Amendment right, unless it's authoritarian states like China where the government outright prohibits it. (And yes it's hard press to find porn in China in print or online for most of the masses.) But if a win begins with targeting minors, it can start a momentum to push for more, such as deep fakes being violation of privacy of real women.
Our government moves very slowly and the courts even slower. Ofc I wish everything could be resolved immediately. But It is a case of Rome wasn't built overnight.
Need a break from all the depressing things about being a woman in this world? This circle is for you!
This circle is for celebrating all the good news relating to women's interests (and by all, we mean ALL, even the things you might disagree with, e.g. achievements or advancements for women in the military, business, religion, etc.)
Rules:
Relevance: Women should be the primary focus. Posts about men being held accountable, found guilty of crimes, etc. are NOT appropriate for this circle.
Formatting: Posts should be actual news, preferably in the form of an article or from an official news source. Do not edit the headline of linked articles; if you would like to provide additional commentary, please do so in a comment.
Civility: Keep discussions on topic. Do not denigrate the achievements or advancements of women.
Promoting Infighting or Drama: Do not start or perpetuate infighting or drama. Disagreements must be civil and must be about the CONTENT of the post, not about the poster, other commenters, the site, etc.
Why just minors?
