Boyne: but i don't think it's fair that i should have to suffer social consequences for my beliefs and actions

Literally none of the time you spent calling Visa/MasterCard this week will matter if this shit passes
Yes it's exhausting to have more calls to make
But this *is* life or death
Censorship is the first stage of removing marginalized people from public life, and then from life itself

KOSA is back. This is the internet censorship bill!
And it's not just coming for SWers, it'll be coming for all LGBTQ content, because the people in charge view LGBTQ people as inherently pornagraphic!
We must push back even harder than we did last time we killed this bill 🔥

every time I tell a Harry Potter fan to fuck off they have to tell me about how it's ok if THEY give the raging transphobe money to eradicate trans people because they are queer and/or autistic and I need you to know I don't give a fuck

personally i plan on being a huge bitch about it until i die. we'll be eating expired kidney beans in the climate-ravaged ruins of a wegmans and i'll be like "well i hope those AI pictures of cats made out of bread were fucking worth it brittney"
People are like "the genie is out of the bottle with AI so we'll all have to live with it." No it isn't. No we won't. That isn't true

I kinda wanna add here: Project 2025 has made it very clear that a lot of the incoming government consider trans people inherently pornographic – pushes to remove 'NSFW' content from platforms are about to become pushes to remove trans people entirely.
“keep the horny off this app”
how about stop showing up and hating on the sex workers here that were amongst the first to join the app, actually.
set your muted words and moderation preferences so you don’t see what you don’t want to but don’t try to bully them off bluesky
