hey if youre in florida and calling your reps, this is something worth bringing up! Tell your reps you think this online ID verification shit is fucking stupid!!!!
this infographic is a lil older, but if you still have energy for calling paypros, its absolutely still worth it to do so!
I don't see much chance of this passing as written but important to to know what they're trying to do to take away your rights and control your life. And the people who push bills like this don't go away. They come back again and again with more "reasonable" bills to chip away at your Liberty,
remember! you arent calling representatives to change hearts and minds, youre calling in order to INTIMIDATE them through sheer numbers into backing down on dumbass censorship bills.
politician's aides literally give them a spreadsheet on how many constituents call to oppose/support bills.
Spread this info around and call your reps! Each of these bills pose serious danger to our freedom of speech, and we won't let that happen! This infographic should be helpful to you when contacting them. Your voice can make a difference. #SaveSpeech
This thread is eloquently put. If you're torn on the new TOS & why censoring any kind of fiction is bad in the current political climate, read this.
I say this as a CSA survivor who has been in therapy for 5 years: it's up to us to curate our own spaces. Censorship leads to fascism.

A comic about CNC kink I've been thinking about for a few years, and I finally decided to sit down and make it.

And it could use your voice.
Please spread & share it to your network to let danish people know.
Always see people post about how problematic fiction and fetish content is a good coping/healing device, which is cool but uh.
It doesn't need to be? We aren't trying to justify hyper violent torture scenes, violent metal lyrics, or showing autopsies on tv. Why does porn need a justification?
Hey, trying to explain Online Censorship to people who arent in the nsfw scene or who arent as online as you are, and need some help?
This video is actually a really great primer on the current situation, and why we have to develop an absolutist stance on free speech for EVERYONE's sake.

At 50k sigs, it is submitted to the parliament and undergoes the standard leg process, including potential debates, review, and vote.
If you're screaming about TOS changes and haven't screamed into the feedback form yet, you should do that!
Been talking to people quite a bit about how it's easy to understand "cancel Disney+!" but harder to understand the initial and bigger problem is with Nexstar and Sinclair, so lemme make it easier.
Find your local Nexstar channel

New TOS censorship of fictional adult content is a massive overreach and makes this definitively not a free and open platform. It demonizes survivors and silences artists.
Everyone is telling you a much healthier way is to give us better tools, like more robust labels, to moderate ourselves
Yeah, holy shit.
I just checked, mine and @shaxbert.bsky.social 's comments calling them out- which have 2.6k and 1.6k likes respectively, are just fucking GONE. Can't even find them by scrolling down anymore, they straight up 'hid' them.
Fucking cowards.

If you think its good that noncon stuff gets censored. Worry not. Your fluff will be next. Followed by lgbtq writing. And your favorite tv shows and games right afterwards.
Google the term "Entartete Kunst" if you are curious, cause this shit happened like 80ish years ago already once
Nah. Dont suddenly go back to renewing your subscriptions or holidays.
Stand up to fascism all the way. Including those who bend to it.
Restricting the expression of sexuality through fiction and art made by adults, for adults – including those you find personally disturbing or offputting – is conservative censorship, full stop. When that censorship disproportionately affects subgroups, that's also discrimination. For shame.
Don't forget that paypros were also largely responsible for other censorship issues too. It always comes down to the money. So, do not stop the pressure on these companies just because we are mad at bsky too!
Suprise! Ferociously anti-trans gubernatorial candidate in WI following trans porn accounts since 2018.

Instead of participating in #blueskyblackout2025 and self-censoring, you can show your solidarity by, yknow, making noise.
Hit that feedback button! Bring up the bullshit rules about fictional characters! Don't rebel against being told to be quiet by complying. That makes no sense!
I cannot emphasize this enough:
The regime has overextended itself. It is vulnerable to protest and dissent.
They have not consolidated power and we are entirely capable of keeping them from doing so.
Doomers are not realists.
