‘Kids Online Safety Act’ will deliberately target trans content, senator admits.::undefined
Of course it will. Then once they have all the trans people rounded up they’ll target the gays, then the blacks, the mexicans, and so on and so forth until everyone’s in camps that isn’t white.
Republican supporters won’t wake up to this until they start coming after the stupid and obese.
Not a surprise. That is the intention.
We need to harm the children to help the children don’t you understand?!!?!?!
Yeah the 1st amendment has gone out the window here. (on the other hand, why are they pushing the lgtbtq movement on kids. Kids aren’t smart at all and won’t understand the deeper meaning…)
Yep exactly as we all knew.
She wants to confine children like I was to the years of confusion and alienation I had to go through. That’s cruel. I should not have had to feel so alone and nobody else should either.
It is more than just cruel. It is abusive and genocidal. LGBT youth will die because of this law and the countless others being passed in certain states.
Oh absolutely and they’ll likely try to punish those who try to save them
“Trans porn must be curropting children because it’s all I watch now and my mind is way stronger than a child’s.” -Marsha Blackburn
…and my mind is stronger than a child’s…
It’s not though. It really, really isn’t.
“The bill – endorsed by president Joe Biden…”
Why in the world would Biden support this Heritage foundation garbage?
This IS Biden. He’s always been a pretty bad human person. The only silver lining is that he’s been better than most recently. He’s a center-right politician just like most Democrats.

‘Kids Online Safety Act’ will deliberately target trans content, senator admits
He’s a granddad. We shouldn’t have granddads who can’t work a remote be president. I assume he can’t work a remote.
Set maximum age for presidency at 25.
People suggest he supports this bill which is not strictly accurate (the bill hasn’t even hit a full vote by either chamber of the legislative branch).
Here’s where support is indicated for a bill, and Republicans are clearly doing what they always do and making a bill a race to the worst possible bill.
We’ve invested $1 billion to help schools hire, train — and train 14,000 new mental health counselors in schools across the country. And we’re taking steps to address the harm of social media is doing to our young people. And it is doing harm. (Applause.)
We’ve got to hold — we’ve got to hold these platforms accountable for the national experiment they’re conducting on — on our children for profit.
Later this week, senators will debate legislation to protect kids’ privacy online, which I’ve been calling for for two years. It matters. Pass it, pass it, pass it, pass it, pass it. (Laughter.)
I really mean it. Think about it. Do you ever get a chance to look at what your kids are looking at online?
Folks, the actions we’re announcing today represent a real step forward to help millions of people get mental health care they need and their insurance should be — and — and the insurance should be provided — should be provided. But there’s still so much more to do.
FWIW I wouldn’t support any bill that “holds big tech accountable” for users using technology, because I think that is stupid.
Are you starting to see the cracks in the foundation? Are you starting to see how the game is played?
The only cracks here is that the senate are all a bunch of olds who don’t understand the internet.
This tbh…
They fear what thy don’t understand…
Sure they do, it is a series of tubes.
This is actually a fantastic example of typical politics, but not in the way you’re imagining. It’s a classic poison pill. Write a bill with something good (protecting children’s privacy online, which I think we’d all agree is good) and then put something unpalatable into it (transphobia and homophobia).
Someone votes for it, “Why do you hate LGBT people?” Someone votes against it, “Why don’t you want children to have stronger privacy laws on the Internet?”
It’s exhausting and a lose-lose. That said, I prefer if they don’t vote for it and take heat for “being anti privacy”. You don’t negotiate with people’s rights.
Is it protecting children? Claims need evidence and rules need tests. Until we do that its fear-based, exploitable control for the sake of control.
Government doesn’t run on the scientific method, sadly.
Yeah that’s the problem with legislation like this. You’ll have proponents claim it protects children without actually explaining how.
Please explain in detail how this bill does a single good thing for children.
I don’t know that it does. If bills and the discourse around them were actually about the stated topic, it would be revolutionary to politics.
Actually no, and furthermore I reject your ‘both sides’ rhetoric wholesale.
I legitimately can’t fucking stand idiots like you.
You can agree with the overall or the majority of policy decisions of a political party while still criticizing their individual decisions as people. To think your political party is somehow ‘above it’ or morally just through and through is being willfully ignorant. It’s a level of mental gymnastics that’s outright absurd.
Again, you can still vote for these people and still believe doing so increases the quality of life. And yes, we can make a distinction that one party isn’t just the ‘lesser of two evils’.
But holy fuck, seriously. Both sides voted to invade the middle east, both sides vote to increase the military budget, both sides vote to increase their own congressional benefits, and both sides play the game where you need to vote on someone’s bill to get them to vote on yours, both sides have issues with the legal loop holes of bribery, both sides take lobbiest money, etc.
Just because one is clearly better than the other doesn’t remove them from criticism and doesn’t deny the fact that they are still politicians doing political shit.
Unstick your head from your ass, ffs
Dude you are basically Hyde from That 70s Show riffing after a joint trying to dunk on “The Man”. You never have to dog far with losers like you to find the conspiracy theories and alternative facts and we all know form there it’s a Misty mountain hop to alt right malarkey.
Go sell crazy somewhere else.
It should be the parents’ job to regulate what kind of content their children consume on the internet, not the government’s.
I mean, at this stage you can tell that by the name.
These deplorables love children so much that they don’t even bat an eye at using child sexual abuse as a political tool while simultaneously turning a blind eye to 300,000 children raped by clergy.
We should protect the children, lets start with the Catholic Church.
To protect kids from gay priests who are molesting them?
Heavens, no. To find a way to extract some monetary value out of that.
good.
Do you carry all that hate around with you all the time, or are you just making today a special day?
Your opinion is valid, king
Good
Listen to the facist sing
"Take hope here
War is elsewhere
You were chosen
This is Gods land
Soon we’ll be free
Of blot and mixture
Seeds planted by our Forefathers hand"
A mass of promises
Begin to rupture
Like the pockets Of the new world kings
Like swollen stomachs In Appalachia
Like the priest that fucked you as he whispered holy things
A mass of tears have transform the stones now
Sharpened on suffering
And woven into the slings
Hope lies in the rubble of this rich fortress
Taking today what tomorrow never brings
Typical American to recite whatever this poem is to a non-American. Am i supposed to know or care what it means?
oui oui d’accord

This is a classic GOP move. Name a bill something like “Free Americans for Internet Freedom Act” that prevents net neutrality and idiots love the name and support it. Name a bill something like “Kids Online Safety Act” as a way to censor and control information, and idiots love the name and support it
This woman is the literal devil…
