So any attempts to implement your laws, fund your policies, or really do any loving thing will be hampered to take 2-4 times as long for much more of the cost. I would laugh if these morons didn't have so much support from so many other morons.

It wouldn't matter what parts you targeted because it would all be reformed into something worse in the aftermath. Creating a scarcity of labor is 100% the first step to fundamentally changing how the federal government operates, and it wouldn't be away from Ice or Bpd

Stultus Maximus posted:A panicky From reading through it, it doesn't seem like a specifically anti-trans bill, seems like the same bill that makes the rounds every so often that basically puts the onus on website owners to moderate their platforms if they reasonably believe minors may use it. It's a stupid bill every time they do it for various reasons, but I don't see why specifically members of the trans-community would have issue with it. shame on an IGA posted:it will end up being significantly worse than that because it leaves "content harmful to minors" entirely at the discretion of state AGs Huh? Is this not the correct bill Bill linked above posted:A covered platform shall act in the best interests of a user that the platform knows or reasonably should know is a minor by taking reasonable measures in its design and operation of products and services to prevent and mitigate the following: Sexual exploitation as defined in the bill is basically defined as Child Porn and enticing kids to leave the state for sex work.

Defenestrategy posted:It's a stupid bill every time they do it for various reasons, but I don't see why specifically members of the trans-community would have issue with it. Because a number of states would love to classify literally anything trans as content not appropriate for minors, and use bills like this to stomp out any and all mention of any kind of gender non-conformity where any one under 18 could possibly see it. If you stop kids from figuring out that they're trans, you make it easier to keep them in the closet when they figure it out later, if they ever do. If I hadn't gotten to meet a bunch of gender nonconforming people, I might never have figured it out myself.

Pine Cone Jones posted:https://bsky.app/profile/chimeracoder.bsky.social/post/3ke3jtvzi4l2y the author is a systems engineer at a payments company and not a policy person or lawyer, so not the best source. the EFF page unfortunately stuffs their actual analysis behind a link. anyway, have an actual policy person:   https://bsky.app/profile/jcperrino.bsky.social/post/3ke6cxniknt2z missing from the EFF analysis is the key bit about "more narrowly tailored than state legislation". legislation of this sort is already being drafted or enacted at the state level, and many of those are actually worse (even here in gay communist california, thanks <my state senator>) and do have actual age verification requirements (strangely, companies that provide age verification systems sing praises of them to legislators). the bill isn't good (save the children laws often aren't), but it may make sense as a tactical move to try and preempt more onerous legislation in, say, Texas or Florida with a common federal standard (it is, however, a bit late and probably won't stop the more determined culture war states anyway) Qtotonibudinibudet fucked around with this message at 01:24 on Nov 15, 2023 |
