Porn sites must have government health warning in Texas from September 1st::Just when we didn’t think the state of Texas could get any more wacko on tech policy, this latest bill really suggests otherwise. House Bill 1181 is an age verification measure that is similar to what we’ve seen in the state legislatures across other red U.S. states. You have an age verification proposal that is similar…
why? wanking is good for your heart, prostate, it’s a stress relieve…what’s the fucking problem? Does the old testaments god Texas believe in has an issue with it?
those pathetic, backwarded, republican fucks…
It’s just like any other significant dopamine snowball; perhaps a friendly notice might be in place or some healthy advice in education. Have a healthy wank, but don’t lose yourself in it.
What’s an example of a health warning for looking at naked humans? Seriously someone explain what they mean because it doesn’t make any sense.
Porn is just not naked humans. It’s not like art. And the behavior in those movies rubs off on teenage guys, so they start to behave like in the movies.
I mean, I still think adding health warning is stupid, but at the same time, we can’t pretend porn doesn’t influence people.
The behavior of the actors in porn does not “rub off on” (lol) on the viewer any more than violent movies rub off on the viewer.
I’d be more concerned about the guys watching the assholes on YouTube making videos about how to be an “alpha male”.
You are actually wrong about that. Do some web searches on it and you will see.
That’s not how it works. If you are making the claim, it’s your responsibility to back that claim up with supporting information.
IMO it’s everyone’s responsibility to themselves to challenge and research things that they want to know the truth about. If the other poster is correct but has no desire to follow up with it, they will still be correct.
The burden of proof is on those who want to know the truth. Unless it’s in a court of law, though even there, IMO the adversarial system is outdated and if someone is innocent, the prosecution and police should be working to determine that, not just trying to prove guilt at all costs.
The burden of proof is on those who want to know the truth
The burden of proof is on the one making the claim. No exceptions.
It’s an internet conversion, there’s no burden on anyone unless they have a goal. Wanting to convince others puts the burden on the one making the claim, but if they aren’t interested in putting that much effort into it, that doesn’t invalidate the claim, which talking about the burden of proof being on anyone else is trying to do.
Even if someone does make the effort to prove something, if knowing the truth is important to you, you should look at other perspectives.
Just ignore it in the same way you do with California’s everything gives you cancer warnings.
CAs warnings are designed to force producers to make a version of their products that’s less likely to kill people available (and required in CA). That’s helpful to everyone.
The intention of this sort of warning label isn’t to make porn better, it is to build toward banning porn entirely. California isn’t trying to ban industrial production, so of course people are going to respond differently.
In response, I restate what I originally said. Ignore the message and watch porn. Not sure what you interpreted my comment to mean other than what I said.
Nah, I’ll just keep living in a place where we don’t make regulations to try to shame adults for having a sexuality, thanks.
In other words, you’ll ignore the message as I originally suggested.
No. I won’t see the message, because I don’t live in a state that tries to shame adults for their sexuality. If you’re going to insist on having the last word, maybe try being right first, next time?
The party of small government sure does a lot of mommying.
I remember being VERY pissed about Obamacare requiring an individual having insurance by paying a for-profit company, else pay a penalty, because of the pro-corp “nanny state” implications, much like I despise legally-required auto insurance (without a government-funded baseline).
Yet here we are with “muh indivdulizm” republicans making the overreach far worse than Democrats ever would have.
Obamacare was invented by a Republican. It was done as a compromise because most Democrat legislators are right wing and don’t want to see public healthcare enacted in the US.
What an insane, ahistorical take lol
It’s basically true. The ACA drew a lot of support being compared to Massachusetts’ healthcare when Romney was governor. The individual mandate, which was the necessary compromise to get it passed, was first proposed by The Heritage Foundation.
You ever notice how the republicans can’t shut up about how much they hate Obamacare, but whenever they have enough seats to end it, they don’t? It’s because they secretly like it (because it’s their plan) but they just don’t want to give Obama or the other Democrats credit for passing it.
“basically true” that “all Dems wanted this instead of SP” because "all Dems are right wing??
No that is not “basically true” lmao
Why you put “all Dems are right wing” in quotes when what I said is that most are. Which is true. American politics are very far right of centre economically by the rest of the world’s standards.
You can’t backpedal from a lie by lying more lol
