It doesn't need to be absolute in success, it just needs to be applied arbitrarily to further abuse out-groups.
which will also have the opposite of their intended effect and create more crime via black markets, trafficking etc.
No, that is the intended effect. Their enemies will become criminals, which means they can arrest them and use them to justify further state power.
They don't care about crime at all, it's just a dogwhistle for black and brown people. If anything, this is a benefit because it means they can inflict harm on more people they don't like during the "crackdown".
If I'm not wrong that was the whole point of criminalizing weed.

...........well now I want to see the cursed one.
I wonder if either of them are actually the correct scene.
Beautiful
They're banning explicit manga AND erotica? Gooners, you gotta rise up and save the Michigan fujoshis and fudanshi!
In all seriousness, the real reason is clear, conservatives love telling on themselves:
Schriver's bill also has a transphobic component. If adopted into law, the act includes prohibitions on material that "includes a disconnection between biology and gender by an individual of one biological sex imitating, depicting, or representing himself or herself to be of the other biological sex."
~~Someone in the Michigan legislature got caught being too into femboys or something similarly stupid, probably.~~
Bugs bunny is so fuckin screwed
From the bill:
"Pornographic material" includes any content, digital, streamed, or otherwise distributed on the internet, the primary purpose of which is to sexually arouse or gratify, including videos, erotica, magazines, stories, manga, material generated by artificial intelligence, live feeds, or sound clips.
Soooo they want stronger plot lines in their porn? Is that what I'm hearing? Something that they can sit down and watch with the family?
I thought that's what softcore porn is for.
Am I missing something or can you just get around this by not having it on the Internet? Like you could just start shuffling a bunch of flash drives around.
It says that the content can't be digital, you'd have to use video tapes or other analog medium.
Somebody trying to increase the value of their extensive VHS collection? 🤔
Well we know they won't ban grindr....
Sounds like a declaration of war.
All of project 2025 is the fascist declaration of war. When the heritage foundation architect said "the revolution will be bloodless, if the left allow it" he meant they will murder everyone who opposes their Christian fascist dictatorship. Everything left of fascism is "the left".
This won’t pass (not now anyway) but it’s funny they want to ban the bible. Or they’re too dumb to realize that implication.
Will be excluded (again) for cultural relevance or some similiar bullshit excuse.
If they think the illegal drug trade is bad, let's think about the illegal sex trade!.....wait....
As a relatively recent country (by European standards), USA did not go through the Middle Age. I guess this is it. Enjoy the public burnings of heretics.
I'm going to jerk off to this attempt to ban porn.
Hey Americans, this is the future you’re building.
Yeah that ain't passing in Michigan.
