Bet you, every single one of the cunts pushing for this would have to immediately be convicted under the very same laws.

Thats the secret sauce in fascism. You pass draconian laws and only enforce them against the out group. Laws are enforced against "bad people". "Good people" get a high five and are sent on their way. This is where the police come in as a sort of filter. Police are incredibly adept at sorting good people from bad people and deciding who the law should apply to. In the event a good person gets inadvertently wrapped up in your new law due to a rogue cop who attempts to apply the law equally you have fascist judges to set things straight and that particular cop will have a short career.
Like American Marijuana laws, the cops didnt really care about people smoking weed, it was a convient way to put black people in jail.
Black people and hippies. The two groups Nixon hated more than anyone else.
Wasn’t too fond of Asians either…
Itll only be enforced against people they dont like.
They want something to feel special about. Conservatives love getting away with stuff that is "wrong" and since society has normalized a lot of previously "wrong" behaviors these people no longer have anything to feel special about. Subjugating others is how they get off.
If only it'd be enforced as such
So they basically just want to abolish free speech? This is the first step in that process. Once they get one law passed about something like porn it makes it super easy to amend that law at any time to include anything the state deems to be "dangerous".
Of course. And you can bet your ass will be applied only very selectively.
Yeah porn is the easy target since not many politicians in Oklahoma are going to oppose it. Since it could damage their political image. Nobody wants to be labeled the porno guy/gal in the right wing news.
You better be married to spez if you live in Oklahoma or you are going to jail
While we’re arbitrarily disregarding the constitution, i now declare all assault rifles illegal. Suck my dick, asscunts.
This guy has the look of someone with a rape dungeon
He looks like he has a diaper fetish

Dusty deavers? There's no way that is not his twink porn name.
any “acts of sexual intercourse,” including those that are “normal or perverted, actual or simulated.”
So there goes the majority of mainstream movies too, I guess 🤦
I would propose expanding the second part to include oral and written delivery, not just digital. The only valid form of sexual dialogue is to be dance.
Written? Guess we'll have to ban the Bible then
Yes, but they don't know that because they never actually read their "word of god" but get a raging erection when they hallucinate about a "good ol' time" that actually never existed in the first place.
And only 17th and 18th century dance forms.
That's harsher fines than being an insurrectionist.
What is with the steady criminalization and paranoia with all things sexual in the last 15 yrs or so? It feels like more than the usual paranoia.
I believe it is how self-proclaimed christians are responding to sexual and gender liberty/tolerance. They see it as lost ground in their crusade against deviance. So they are escalating things beyond reason in order to sooth their own conscience.
That's how I see it. Closeted bigots being closeted bigots.
Also feels like Gen z is more prudish and so, even if they don't really agree with these movements, they also aren't as affected, so don't really care about it happening either.

And they know the rules will never apply to them anyway even if they get caught. Win win

They're losing the culture war, both at a societal level and a political one. So they're lashing out, ideally with what are the last gasps of their regressive ideology
Next, having a vagina out of wedlock will be illegal.
Did you just spell out the V word?? Fined and imprisoned, sinner!
The lawmakers pushing this should have their browsing history and message logs examined by a team of data recovery experts.
I can assure you, they are into some weird shit but they spout these bullshit platitudes about turning others away from sin. It's almost certainly because they are embarrassed or insecure about their own desires.

John Oliver was doing something like that around a piece about data brokers:

It was wonderful.
The lawmakers proposing this... We should bring back tar and feathers.
would prohibit consuming or producing sexual content that “lacks serious literary, artistic, educational, political, or scientific purposes or value” in any medium.
MOST porn is art because it has a camera as a medium, and it is viewed as "Entertainment", this bill will have no teeth on arrival.
My main problem is that this kind of logic is next door neighbors with, "That woman was dressed in a pornographic way! She should be dressed from head to toe in black!"
Edit: correction
Wasn't this exactly what the Larry Flint case was about already? Sounds like political grand standing, so they can say they did something even if that something is completely moot anyway.

Guess they'll have to disconnect the Internet in Oklahoma then.
In the wise words of Dr. Cox, if they removed all porn from the Internet there would be only one website left, saying bring back the porn.

Can anyone tell me which year it is in Oklahoma? It can't be anything starting with 20, 19, or even 18, that's for sure.
Well witch burning is next along with sponsoring a fleet of explorers to see what lies across the western ocean.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Oh fuck off.
This is either something that will only ever be selectively enforced, or designed to be so outrageous they can walk it back to what they actually want and look like they're compromising.
"Listen here, I'm doing the lord's work!"
I imagine there are still brick and mortar stores in Oklahoma that sell porn and sex merchandise. This would ruin their business. What a bunch of idiots. This will never survive a challenge in court.
