Summary
Project 2025, a manifesto supported by the conservative Heritage Foundation, calls for a ban on pornography, labeling its purveyors as criminals and advocating for strict penalties, including jail time for producers and registered sex offender status for educators distributing it.
The manifesto argues that porn lacks First Amendment protection, framing it as harmful and exploitative.
With a right-leaning Supreme Court, proponents aim to overturn existing protections established in Miller v. California, potentially impacting mainstream media.
Donald Trump has pledged to bring Project 2025 contributors onto his team.
Least important effect of a Trump presidency - but I’m sure if he did this it’d be the straw that broke the camel’s back for Gen Z Trumpers.
The one thing this election has all but confirmed for me is that over half of the country supports these things unabashedly, and I highly doubt porn will be the hero that magically changes these people. It’s already banned in multiple conservative states, and all of them just voted red again.
Honestly, I believe that if the Trump admin brought back prohibition, his bootlickers would be the first in line telling us how it’s the best idea ever.
Don’t even joke about that.
He wouldn’t do it. There’s too much money being made there to already wealthy people that support him. I could see him threatening and blackmailing to get a piece of the pie though.
Then maybe they should have known that Project 2025 called for that before they decided to vote for Trump.
Violence against women is about to skyrocket when the incels can’t get a date because they’re too repulsive and can’t watch porn to take out their sexual frustrations because of what they voted for.
Those kids would be very angry if they could read
Nah, genZ are apparently prudes. They have less sex and apparently don’t like fan service in media. Puritanism and teetotaling is the new counterculture.
I’ve suspected the less sex has more to do with hookup culture being undesirable and lack of face-to-face communication. Not to mention “who can afford kids in this economy?”
I dislike fanservice because it often seems shoehorned in, adding no value outside itself whatsoever and as such taking away from the rest.
Mind you if I want smut,I just watch smut. Simple as
Not least important when you think about how they define “porn”
Nope, still pretty unimportant.
I’m pretty sex positive and pro-porn myself but compared to deporting legal immigrants with the wrong skin color or forcing motherhood on unconsenting women it’s pretty unimportant.
Also like… destroying our entire government bureaucracy.
their definition of porn = all queer people. Do you realize this? They want to arrest queer people for existing
