The law would require a “Texas Health and Human Services Warning” on all porn sites.

    “You show me some lazy prick who’s laying around all day watching game shows and stroking his penis and I’ll show you someone who’s not causing any fucking trouble”

    -George Carlin

    Republicans really believe shit like this and banning abortion will be successful at restoring the nuclear family… at gunpoint.

    What it will really do is increase sexual assault, suicide, violence in general…

    Of course that will be everyone else’s fault for not submitting to their attempts at coercion correctly. Republicans insist on personal responsibility, exclusively for their many enemies and explicitly not for themselves.

    The funniest bit is, they are the reason for the death of the nuclear family and the reason it won’t be restored. If you give the owner class all the money out of the asses of the working citizens that would have kids, herp derp they won’t have kids.

    If they really wanted the “traditional American family” to come back, they need only restore tax levels to pre-reagan levels, and actually enforce them. Instead they’d rather threaten everyone for masturbating instead of making new wage slaves they can’t afford to raise so Republicans can also get that dopamine hit of schadenfreude by calling them irresponsible for having kids they can’t afford.

      You want to restore the nuclear family? Make it financially viable for us to have one.

      One of the main reasons I don’t have children is because it’s too goddamn expensive.

      Also I’m sterile. But there’s nothing anyone can do about that.

        Fertility issues are also massively on the rise, probably just another side effect of all the pollution we let oligarchs inflict for private profit.

        And Nero Bezos/Walton/Buffet/Koch/etc counted while humanity burned.

        I’m in Norway and can’t find it in the Play Store. The links from their website seem dead or wrong.

        There is a vpn app with the same name, but it has typos and looks suspect.

      If everyone is miserable and all vices are banned, there will be nowhere else to turn to but religion and that’s exactly what they want. Religion is authoritarian by default and the main message of it is comply or else which fits right into the Republican’s plan for us all.

    From reading about the law it sounds like they are trying to take a page from CA’s overreaching prop 65 law that effectively labels everything a potential carcinogen. Based on the data the main beneficiary of this are a handful of law firms. I wouldn’t be surprised if this law is backed by a few law firms who smell easy money.
