    “Mom” isn’t doing this unless she’s uber rich. Someone is bankrolling her to try to set precedent.

      Mom is joined in her lawsuit by the National Center on Sexual Exploitation (NCOSE).

      The National Center on Sexual Exploitation (NCOSE), previously known as Morality in Media and Operation Yorkville, is an American conservative anti-pornography organization.[2][3] The group has also campaigned against sex trafficking, same-sex marriage, sex shops and sex toys, decriminalization of sex work, comprehensive sex education, and various works of literature or visual arts the organization has deemed obscene, profane or indecent. Its current president is Marcel Van der Watt. The organization describes its goal as “exposing the links between all forms of sexual exploitation”.[4]

        So they just did a control + f for “sex” and then are against any of the results. Are they seriously suggesting that there are people out there who are all for sex trafficking, and would vote in favour of it? They sound like lovely people.

          They are a right-wing religious advocacy group. So it’s practically a guarantee.

        Pretty sure those NCOSE assholes are the ones who said school shootings and other mass murders are because of moral decline due to gay people.

        That makes so much sense.

      Anti-masturbation shaming and lawfare and the idea that you can blame all your problems on it is a mainstay of the religious right playbook.

      They then hold the forever frustrated subject in a mental shame prison they can never escape but above which they can self righteously judge everyone else and feel they know the real reason why everything is messed up. A similar self sealing logic as the conspirationnists.
