Popular porn sites now display unproven health warnings thanks to Texas law::Popular online adult film sites in Texas are posting health warnings about watching porn, despite the fact a law requiring them to do so was blocked in August.
This sounds like it’s going to further erode people’s trust in the health systems and the advice of doctors.
I’m sure that’s a side effect that Texas is happy with.
Who was out there discrediting doctors during the pandemic? The exact same people pushing for those kinds of laws and making those bogus health claims.
It’s always projection with the right.
“…is known to the state of Texas to cause…”
Masturbation makes hair grow on the palms of your hands - it’s science people.

I heard something along the lines of your hand becoming pregnant in the afterlife. I think he was some Middle Eastern Muslim (don’t recall if the Muslim part is true), so it’s basically fact.

I love how republican law makers who want small government and non governmental interference and stop interfering the second it’s something they are against.
Really shows their true colors. They don’t give a shit about small government, they LOVE government interference. They just don’t want you to stop them using slavery, they just don’t want you to know about practices in slaughter houses, they just want to be able to pollute every part of the world except where they live and they just want to be able to tell you how to live your life.
Is that so much to ask?
Republicans:
No restrictions on wealthy tax avoidance
No restrictions for companies to exploit
No restrictions on guns
No restrictions on death penalty
No restrictions for hate speech and misinformation
No restrictions for health and safety
No environmental regulations
Ban almost everything else including your porn, books and healthcare.
I was raised a Republican but am now an independent because it’s ridiculous. There is no freedom anymore in the platform besides the freedom to be an asshole if you look at the above. They don’t even support the military or Ukraine against Russia. This is not the Republican Party anymore it was taken over by raw corruption fed by ignorance, anger and propaganda.
They oppose communism, of course they don’t want small government
The smallest form of government is a dictatorship.
Because I didn’t see it written in the comments yet, here is the warning:
“The sites display unproven claims that porn impairs ‘human brain development’ and ‘increases the demand for prostitution, child exploitation, and child pornography.’”
If you’re a resident of Texas, please be aware that watching porn is bad for you, jacking off will make you blind and that you’re a filthy person for coming here. If you’re from the rest of the world, why are you reading this instead of watching porn?

This reminds me of BANNED IN CHINA!!! The warning label is how you know your porn is extra. Rated XXX+XX!
Shit state gonna shit state. What an embarrassment

Y’all-Qaeda
That’s fucking hilarious
“unproven” because it’s Texan. Fuck The Verge, Internet porn addiction is as real as those beetles that have sex with beer bottles because they’re brown and perfectly glossy like an ideal mate.
Remember when people on the Internet generally universally agreed that it was bad when the government (or anyone) regulated or censored the Internet?
I want those times back. It isn’t any better whether it is because of left wing causes like “misinformation” or “hate speech” or right wing ones like the thing this article is about or “piracy” or “terrorist propaganda”.
That was before someone on Twitter’s best addition to the conversation was to call me “a caribou diaper baby” … which while a very creative insult … is pretty ridiculous conduct.
I agree the government regulating speech is a fine line. We don’t need real information being suppressed, but we also need a way (with checks and balances) to shut people that are entirely full of shit (or people that if the Internet was a real establishment would be kicked out for being deranged and unhinged) up.
I think the concept you’re looking for is that moderation is different from censorship.
