    Get ready, if the Project 2025 freaks get their way this kind of shit will happen nationwide as a full ban on pornography across the board. It’s just another way the party that claims they “stand for freedom” will turn this country into a puritanical dictatorship one small step at a time

      The elite is trying any way they have to make people have babies, including banning abortion, porn and LGBTQIA+, they know the birth rate it’s going down and they need cannon fodder for their wars.

        Jokes on them, I was wanking it to the JC Penny catalog long before internet porn and I will do it again. Porn doesn’t make less babies guys still want the real thing but we need to jizz for our prostate health.

        The defense industry will fall apart, SS funds will be plundered. The birth rate won’t matter in a few years as society falls apart. They have to call themselves evangelicals because there are so many sects. They won’t be able to govern their way out of a wet paper bag. These morons have no idea what they’re doing. Definition of dog catching car.

        As with everything this is a grift. To the people saying leave, cowards.

        Nah, that’s all religious wierdo shit. The owner class is fine with immigrant labor. In fact it’s better because you can’t unionize undocumented workers. The defense industry literally has recruiters in South America and Africa fast tracking green cards for service. It’s not about running out of people. It really is just a stupid fucking christofascist cult.

            I can assure you they do when the entire point is to get out of a developing country and make the US your home. Same reason a ton of foreign fighters ably serve in the French Foreign Legion.

                If you serve an enlistment as something non sensitive you can always move into classified jobs. As long as you don’t come from a sensitive country or have contacts to one. Although you’re not going to work for the CIA or someone without a serious probe into your history.

                  As far as I have understood in the CIA at least in the important projects just aryan fundamentalist protestants are allowed, some Jewish also but just a minority.

      Putting this out there.

      If you are educated, in demand or have the financial means to do so GET OUT. Globalization means most jobs can be worked anywhere and those that can’t are often in demand.

      My uni is struggling with student numbers and I still don’t understand why we aren’t advertising to every single American high-school. One mass shooting in living memory, mostly understanding culture in regards to LGBT, low religious control, low corruption and great views 15 minutes away.

          If you have no skills its an absolute bitch. Unless you’re coming over as a seasonal worker in which they will take nearly anyone.

          If you have them, money or a student its much easier.

            I’m guessing seasonal workers aren’t welcome to stay though… leaving money or academics. I will say Americans are slowly realizing it’s cheaper to send their kids abroad for college. Germany told parents they had to put up a 10,000 dollar bond to support their kid in Germany and parents were like, “Yup, that’s a quarter the cost of the tuition alone in the US.”

      Get ready

      Get out the vote. Trump, despite his polling, is deeply unpopular with the average American. The problem isn’t the people voting for Trump, its the people who aren’t voting in general. In 2020, 40 million registered Dems did not vote. Round up every friend and family member, get them registered, get them voting. Go as a group on election, bring snacks and drinks for everyone. Offer a ride or share a cab.

      Trump is extremely beatable. They know this, and it’s why they’re panicking right now. Project 2025 isn’t just beatable, it’s an albatross; that’s why the GOP are pretending they had nothing to do with it, but that leaves them unable to actually articulate any policy positions because it is their policy position.

      Why be preparing for failure when you could be planning to win?

      No this was always intended. It’s the same exact people that screamed about Barack Hussein Obama bringing Sharia law. They were always worried that he was going to introduce Islamic religious law before they could introduce Christian religious law. It was never hidden, the statements were literally along the lines of, “This is a Christian country, Sharia law is not right for us.”

        if you find no correlation between the religious leaders we have like Catholic Biden and the boots we are stomped under that is on you

        when enough people have their lives upended by something they do not even believe in maybe the country will change but until then progress is strangled by religion

        only pointing out the boring dystopia of living in a Christian ruled country

            go further with a both sides take

            both Vance and Biden are flaming Catholics and both heavily defend Catholic Christian values

            every sperm is sacred

              The important thing is that you’ve found another way to help bring about a dictatorship and a genocide of queer people.

              (Yes, I know, it’s Biden’s fault that you’re doing everything you can to ensure that.)
