This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Prohibition but worse
MAGA Republicans: will riot if you give them a Facebook event invite
Democrats: let's see, maybe they will riot if you take their houses or something. At least they might write a strongly worded comment
It's because the Republicans usually have the police either directly on their side, or at least sympathetic to them.
Look at the police response across the country to BLM protests a few years ago.
And it's not like left wingers in the country don't do extreme action. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitol_Hill_Occupied_Protest

Guilty Canadian Admission:
In my teens I lived in Brockville Ontario near Ogdensburg New York and watched a lot of US channels. The Star Spangled Banner came on at the beginning of the broadcast day for some channels.
For many years, I thought the first line was "Jose can you see"
When I was a kid I thought the "for which it stands" in the national anthem was in reference to a country called "witchistan", which was presumably full of witches.

And ANON doesn’t understand how to use a VPN?
If they knew that, they wouldn't have made the post
Americans now need a wanking license.
Idaho is starting a registry for at-risk men with erections, to prevent impure thoughts. You need to send a picture of your dick, where it will be validated by an evangelical priest.

Good boy, you don't come until Trump tells you to.
Trump branded chastity cages.
What I hate most is that that would be an effective tactic for right wing extremist groups. Keeping men sexually frustrated and insecure in their masculinity is a powerful tool for them.
Actually come to think of it, I really wouldn't be surprised if there were a variety of political themed pro dommes these days. It seems like it would be lucrative

That's what you voted for. You want republican rule taking away your freedoms. Well now you Floridains have what you wanted and voted for. Don't be mad you made your bed and dont like the sheets.
Given how close most elections are and the low turnout, I would say at least 40% of voters and 50% of the population didn't vote for this without even having to look at the election results.

Make sure you cum on your ID first as tribute.
That sounds like a chicken and egg problem. How is the cum getting on the ID before accessing the porn? If you use another means, surely you will no longer be in the mood for accessing a porn site...

You are free to be as conservative as you want. What more can you ask for?
you're free to be as conservative as the heritage foundation wants you to be.
Conservatives jerk off to porn all the time. This isn't even strictly conservative per-say, its just generic American prudishness. 30 years ago, you'd have Tipper Gore and Newt Gingrich coming together to restrict the sale of rap music CDs and wrestling themed video games to anyone under the age of 13, on similar grounds.
Demanding everyone have an ID present any time they want to do anything is a throw-back to the 90s liberal fixation on "accountability" that was a proxy for mass surveillance.

This is pretense to intrude on other things and more importantly remove the ability to browse pornography anonymously, which is dangerous. I would never use an account to browse a porn site because why would I ever want that data linked back to me? Look at the government right now. You watch a gay or trans porn video and in a few years that could be grounds for never being able to have certain types of jobs or worse, being deemed a “miscreant”
If this was truly about protecting children they would encourage open dialogue on sex in homes and increase inclusive sex education. This is evidence based. It would still be necessary even with this nonsense because obviously vpns exist, as well as amateur run sites, sites run from outside of the USA, torrents, etc that don’t give a shit about us laws requiring age verification and will show all kinds of obscenely hardcore videos

Lol I saw Lemmings celebrate Australia's Ban of Teenagers from social media, then simultaneously criticize this lol 🤣
(Both are bad, btw)
I think it's uncontroversial to say that porn is bad for children, and I would say that social media is bad for children as well. I think as one matures and becomes an adult both become less bad, less fraught, but the difference between the two of Is that one with one of them you sometimes want to be anonymous, and the other one you almost always want to be anonymous.
I mean I'm against requiring affirmative identity verification online anyway, even as a solution to keeping children away from things that are unhealthy for them. You can't sacrifice the freedom of adults on the altar of protecting children.
