Summary
Project 2025, a manifesto supported by the conservative Heritage Foundation, calls for a ban on pornography, labeling its purveyors as criminals and advocating for strict penalties, including jail time for producers and registered sex offender status for educators distributing it.
The manifesto argues that porn lacks First Amendment protection, framing it as harmful and exploitative.
With a right-leaning Supreme Court, proponents aim to overturn existing protections established in Miller v. California, potentially impacting mainstream media.
Donald Trump has pledged to bring Project 2025 contributors onto his team.
No, you dont get it. They want to do it precisely because everyone has a porn-producing camera in their pocket, and they can selectively enforce what gets prosecuted. Who wants to bet they go after the gay “porn” first? (And by porn, I mean “picture of two men kissing”)
Exactly. This will be just like the “war on drugs” - something to weaponize against groups they don’t like.
I don’t think even the war on drugs is a strong enough comparison. I don’t think we have anything in our nation’s history that will compare to the transformation that will occur come January 20.
The nation will become unrecognizable. This paradigm of, “we need good candidates,” and, “the Democrats need to pander more to the left” shit will cease to exist, because fair elections will cease to exist. Political parties will be declared terrorist organizations, and many people will likely be executed (or at the very least, imprisoned for a very long time, simply for identifying as a Democrat).
There is no analogy for this. Not in US history at least…
