FSC's @mikestabile.bsky.social says new laws taxing adult content function as a form of censorship.

"A tax on speech limits that right to those who can afford it... Taxing them because of imagined harms is not only dangerous to our industry, it sets a dangerous precedent for government power."
Conservative Lawmakers Want Porn Taxes. Critics Say They’re Unconstitutional
Alabama passed a 10 percent porn tax last year, as Utah and Pennsylvania eye similar bills. Half the country has enacted age-verification laws to prevent minors from viewing porn.

Please keep calling your reps to demand they oppose KOSA and other internet censorship bills!
It appears that some members of the Democratic Party are supporting KOSA.

The act purports to be about protecting children, but it could weaponize Trump's FTC to target LGBTQ+ content on the internet.

Adult creators and sex workers are going to continue to be picked off, one by one, unless people stand up for them.

please call your representatives. demand they oppose censorship bills like the SCREEN Act, KOSA, and demand protections for Section 230

Like yeah I'd probably be reactionary about porn too if that was my scrolling experience, seeing people being genuinely disgusting towards women and removing their autonomy.

AI is making this discussion way messier than it already is.

The discourse around porn advocacy is so exhausting because one hand sure, there are puritanical Christo-fascists who make their prudishness everyone else's problem.

But then you got people who's online experience consists of seeing twitter chuds using grok to undress girls without their consent

What’s happening on X with AI generated sexual images is problematic, not because it’s porn but because it’s non-consensual, harmful content being published by X.

And for those wondering, Section 230 DOES NOT protect it.

Porn and erotica are important and societally valuable forms of speech, and the defense of them, in the face of state and church attempts at repression, is a necessary political act.

I really want to emphasize that this is a winnable fight, but everyone has to chip in in order to do so! Please dont sit it out expecting others to stand in your place!

And dont ignore local/state level stuff! As these state laws get overturned, the narrative behind the Fed ones lose steam!

And no, your politicians can't take away *your rights specifically* just for calling in and asking for healthcare or something. Maybe some of them want to; but that just isn't the reality we live in yet -- so use your right to free speech while you still have it. 🙌
Not people in my replies doing the, "But my politicians are all right wing assholes so my voice doesn't matter!"
Say that shit to a mirror and see how you feel. Do you really think rightwingers think that way when facing left leaning folks? Get over it. Yell at your politicians.

This is why ID verification laws are bad. No website can truly have the security it needs to keep ANY information safe. Not a single one.

Y'all gonna start acknowledging the parallels yet?

Y'all gonna start defending art, intimacy, and sex as basic human expressions?

Y'all gonna start realizing that these deranged puritans don't have an ounce of goodwill in their bodies and literally just want to control every aspect of our lives?

I cannot stress enough that most ppl don't ever even think about calling their reps. I talk to ppl in my fam about it and they go "Huh? What?". But your reps work for YOU. They need to know what you actually care about. When we call in big numbers it ALERTS them, cuz they rarely hear from us.
Hey romancelandia and fandom peeps! If you live in the U.S. right now you should know that KOSA (along with a slew of censorship bills) are advancing through congress right now. If you care about spicy books and/or fanfiction you should contact your reps right now and tell them to vote NO on KOSA!
