    First you make laws against “obscene material” then you make it so that any literature even discussing a hint of anything outside of cisgender heterosexuality is considered “obscene material.” Then you prosecute people for letting other people know that what they feel inside is normal. They want you to be shamed into compliance.

    That’s always been the end-goal. Project 2025 is pretty clear about redefining reality back to (barf) “biblical norms.”


    Saying the quiet part out loud:

    Being an American requires conformity with the positive benefit of unity

    “If you little fuckers would just CONFORM to how we want you to be, this country would be filled with UNITY.”

      The answer will always be no. They may kill a bunch of people, and they still won’t have their conformity, because they’re all little bitches and nobody wants to be like them.

      Maybe if they were cool.

        As well as making your daughters r*pist pay the father something like a donkey and some silver. Oh and forcing the woman to marry him.

        Or maybe they mean the Bible they claim to follow like the part where Jesus’s followers sold all their possessions to live in a literal commune?

        If fucking only…

    It would expose librarians to a class one misdemeanor charge. That’s punishable by up to a year in jail and a $2,000 fine.

    Representative Will Mortenson, R-Fort Pierre, said that’s wrong.

    “We got to do better than this, folks,” Mortenson said. “There’s work that we can do in this policy area, but heading right to sending the librarians to jail is not cutting the mustard.”

    Yeah, I don’t think that this is reasonable.

    If you want to filter Internet content on library computers – which I assume is the issue here, not kids checking out Fanny Hill – then just say “libraries in South Dakota need to run filtering software package X”. It won’t be perfect, but then, hey, neither will librarians, and dumping the risks of that imperfection on them serves no purpose.
