Oklahoma proposal would make watching porn a felony, ban sexting outside marriage
Oklahoma proposal would make watching porn a felony, ban sexting outside marriage
A bill set to be introduced next month would ban consuming or producing sexual content and punish offenders with prison sentences of up to 20 years and $25,000 fines.
this country is so fucking cool
Cool. Let's see the legislature's browser histories.
Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, loves talking about his creepy spy app he and his son have on their phone that alerts the other if they visit naughty sites. So the writers of this proposal and all that vote for it would be happy to put the same program on their devices and computers, right? And tie that straight to a public feed we can all see? Great Great.
creepy spy app
The only thing that spy app is making them do, is hiding a second phone from everyone. Guarantee it.
That's why this will never pass.
It's just virtue signalling from whoever is introducing it.
They’ll be exempt, obviously.
I'm sorry, I didn't know we lived under Sharia Law.
Tomayto/tomahto, sharia/christo-fascist. Different pronunciations of the same thing.
🤔
Sex dick? Really Oklahoma? Are you guys OK?
They want to ban porn because it might tempt those who desperately want to be one of the straights.
But seriously, that congressman is so scared of being gay that they want everyone else to give up porn so they won't be challenged by easy dick.
I'm switching my VPN server to Oklahoma before my next wank.
Really living up to the shape of the state borders
I'm in Wyoming. There's only ten of us here. The goth search was mine. The rest didn't bother with PornHub after I explained that "bear sex" wasn't going to give them the result they were expecting.
Idaho's "dildo ride" absolutely tracks. I have been wearing a Bad Dragon cap for weeks (it's an amazing hat) and it was a ~50 year old woman on the Idaho side of the mountain who recognized the logo.
EDIT: I am not joking. The caps are sick.
I mean it can get them the result they're expecting if they use the furry tag.
Lmao.
Sex dick.
Also, damn Arkansas. You nasty.
I'm proud to represent Illinois instead!
Florida finally gets a break. Unless the fantasy is involving both Oaklahoma and Arkansas.
Arkansas can get a pass given what Tennessee is doing.
Nudist for Oregon and Sensual Sex for Washington make the PNW seem so wholesome and well adjusted. I wonder what BC is.
Sex dick. Jk it's apparently Asian, here's the link for canada (NSFW obviously)
*Sees people in Indiana search for 'chubby.'*
*Looks around.*
Yep, that tracks.
Classic Ohio
Is the car sex in Arizona because it's taboo to touch anything on the inside of a car in the summer? Like instead of the thrill of maybe getting caught that exhibitionists get, it's the danger of accidentally burning yourself on the metal clasp of a seat belt?
Having lived there I will call that "plausible"
The inside of a car in Arizona is so hot!
Wtf North Dakota. I refuse to believe there are multiple people up there typing "loud wet sex" into their search bars.
Shout out to Colorado. I'm wondering why Ohio's is "small dick" lol.
Lmao @ big ass cop in DC
I respect you, North Dakota
...Smoking?
It's a fetish. Some people enjoy seeing someone smoke while fucking and some people actually enjoy smoke being blown on them.
Virginia is also a giant tobacco producer.

What the fuck is going on in Tennessee and Ohio?
Actually looking at their other stats are shocking. Like I’m actually really surprised with how much lesbian content blows other searches out of the water women are significantly more likely to search it than men. Same for trans porn.
Also props to milfs for being the number 2 search term. Mom bods really are having their day
That guy watches so much porn
I don't want to engage in slander, but just extrapolating from previous conservative projection, that guy has a 15 year-old Honduran boy chained in his laundry room.
15? A bit old for a guy like him, isn't he?
😞 I really hope not. That'd be so horrible, yet the possibility lingers.
Let's take bets on who's getting caught first! Drag queens or some god-fearing dude??
Don't pretend for a second itll actually be enforced against the in group
I wish I didn't live in my COMMUNIST blue state where I can freely watch porn, read books, receive healthcare, feed hungry kids, breath clean air, turn around in driveways without getting shot and an abortion if I or my 10 year old daughter gets RAPED! I would MUCH rather live in a Red State where it's only legal to shoot homeless people, go to church and breath fumes from the coal plant next door unless it gets too cold and I freeze to death!
I agree with most of this, but don't act like your healthcare is enough if you live in the US.
My healthcare is though, it's just ridiculously expensive
Everyone involved in pushing this law should be barred from working in government, and fined for wasting our time.
Just let them pass it then search their browser history. You know the only reason they're so concerned about it is they're ball's deep into it.
"Balls deep" is sexting. I've called the police!
This guy is nuttier than squirrel shit. Total christofascist.

Besides banning porn, he wants to ban no-fault divorce, and ban abortion with no exceptions. He called COVID vaccines a"mark of the beast", called for the jailing of Fauci, and the virus was engineering by Bill Gates to decrease population.

I gotta say one "good" thing about Xitter being so stupid is that I don't doomscroll the site like I did when I was on. While I'm glad that Nitter exists because we need to keep an eye out for crazy, anyone who wants to avoid doomscrolling and losing brain cells might want to skip that link for their mental health's sake.

Also, wonder how this will impact the incest porn scene.
This song sums it up really well
Taking bets on how long it takes (not if, but when) this man is hacked and found to be absorbed in the exact thing he's trying to ban.
Taking bets now!
I'll start.

I'll raise you one word: *child
This should be called the “Methinks Thou Dost Protest Too Much” Rule.
What is wrong with Americans?
They write articles about a bill some whacko proposed that has no chance of passing (and would be struck down in 5 minutes on first amendment grounds of it did) and pearl clutchers act like it's the end of the world. Have you seen The People vs Larry Flint? That took place 60 years ago. This shit is nothing new.
a bill some whacko proposed that has no chance of passing
A lot of the craziest shit in the lawbooks were things some whacko proposed "that has no chance of passing".
and would be struck down in 5 minutes on first amendment grounds of it did
Current SCOTUS precedent is that the First Amendment does not protect porn if it contains "obscenity". Specifically, any porn can be banned if it:
- Makes people uneasy
- Includes offensive sexual conduct - as decided by state law (?!?)
- "lacks serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value"
It's called the Miller Test
Notice the wording used in the proposed law. It's already been pre-considered to have a solid chance of surviving a SCOTUS appeal. And the current SCOTUS wouldn't dream of overriding Conservative jurisprudence.
pearl clutchers act like it’s the end of the world
Unfortunately, this is the type of anti-reactionary discussion that led to us being genuinely surprised when Roe v Wade got overturned. Clarence Thomas used the opportunity to signal that he would like to overturn Obergefell and Griswold as well. And he 100% has Barrett on his side and almost certainly has Kavanaugh. That means all he has to do is elbow Gorsuch and suck off Roberts and porn (and sex toys) could be illegal in some states, working towards a federal ban.
Gen z, millennials, and The Gays. /S.
Edit: sorry I forgot the The Blacks, and Hunter Bidens Laptop.
Y'all Qaeda
This is like... Middle East religion police stuff.
So what do you think? How many of the politicians pushing for this are sexting with children?
The Venn diagram is a circle
That's the thing.... The bill is for 18+. What they are doing is funnelling sex fiends to the children their cabal sells. Epstein lives through celebrities and politicians.
Sadly that's probably true.
Land of the free, home of the American Taliban
The bill, set to be introduced next month by state Sen. Dusty Deevers (R-Elgin), would prohibit consuming or producing sexual content that “lacks serious literary, artistic, educational, political, or scientific purposes or value” in any medium.
Ok then, every piece of sexual content I produce or consume is in political protest of this specific bill. That should hold up in court. Bust one for Dusty!
He's just mad because he was born old. When they did the cracker jack at his fraternity, he could only season the cracker with a shot of of ol dusty.
What a terrible day to have eyes
it's a story about the love between two people!
Dusty Deevers is a cartoon name
Wait...
You're telling me that "Hentai is art" is a legal defense to this law, then?
This should be turned around like what was done with Rick Santorum (Santorum. Def: "the frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex.")
Back at the beginning of Google-bombing, this was one of the early incredibly successful campaigns. This one wasn't a neologism, but was another one that should be remembered just in case the ghoul Ann Coulter ever reemerges: I fucked Ann Coulter in the ass - hard.
We just need a good one for Dusty Deevers.
I love watching our clueless citizens just allow this descent into fascism. Who knew it would be as simple as just not teaching kids what the word means.
would prohibit consuming or producing sexual content that “lacks serious literary, artistic, educational, political, or scientific purposes or value” in any medium.
So you get get around it with a whiteboard in the background that has a math equation on it. Kinda like you can get around the swimsuit ban on twitch if you have an inflatable pool with water in it in the background.
Maybe someone over there is watching porn for the story and is simply trying to ban porn without it. And I agree, I can't take it seriously if I don't understand my stepmoms motivation and background.
Okay, now we're going to learn about the numbers with Lana and Kelly Roses. First Kelly will count with me to 10...1, 2,....7, 8,9 and 10!.. oh my God! I just wanna count so much! Oh my God, I'm gonna count! Img gonna count!
Those carve outs already exist for state classification laws.
We really need a law where any politician who wants to vote to ban something has to first disclose their own relevant actions.
Or maybe just enforce the Constitution.
Proof once again these delusional religious people need to fuck off.
Both of those are constitutionally illegal.
Let's ask the Supreme Court what do they think.
...
They're on a private plane with a billionaire. Will get back to us later.

Obscenity is not protected by the first amendment.
Good thing porn isn't obscene
Not sure why you're downvoted. You are correct: https://www.justice.gov/criminal/criminal-ceos/obscenity#:~:text=Obscenity is not protected under,obscenity laws are criminal offenses.
Does Oklahoma not have any real problems going on lol?
They do, and things like this are intended to get their voting base to vote for them without having to run any real policies to fix real issues because that would make it more expensive for their donor base.
This is in response to all male Republicans feeling terribly inadequate after seeing Hunter Biden's hog (thank you MTG!). I'm sure they all think the only way to please a woman is to have a large unit. lol.
What is this comment for? What is the end goal? Also, what the fuck do we have to gain from hunter politically? He's not elected. It didn't matter when they started crying about it and it doesn't fucking matter now.
I don't think Hunter matters in the slightest. That some of our federal officials are still bringing Hunter dong shots to put into the congressional record and display on poster boards is a thing worth noting and sharing awareness of.
God I lm glad I live in a blue state.
Backwardass motherfuckers.
They'll move to the federal level soon enough. Have you met the current Speaker?
Sweet making it illegal just makes it even more enticing!
Anyone in OK down for some illegal sexting? 😏
The punishment if caught will be a spanking
Oh no
Since you put it that way, makes me want to move to Oklahoma ASAP.
But only for the poor and unconnected, naturally.
And for repeat offenders, we can give them life sentences. We'll call it the "three strokes law".
What happens when they get off?
They put you in front of the bukkake firing squad. No last meal requests because you should be pretty full by the end.
i dont understand how things like this can even be pushed to begin with.
It's like banning a word because it makes you think of things that are somewhat unpleasant.
United States in 2024:
Sexting outside of wedlock: Felony
The word moist: Right to jail.
Murdering homeless people on a whim: Encouraged.
too fast? Right to jail, too slow? right to jail.
There’s no way that dude is not railing twinks every weekend.
I’m not saying that’s a bad thing, but his doubtless moral hypocrisy is rustling like a loud chip bag in the movies.
he bill, set to be introduced next month by state Sen. Dusty Deevers (R-Elgin), would prohibit consuming or producing sexual content that “lacks serious literary, artistic, educational, political, or scientific purposes or value” in any medium.
Deevers, a Baptist pastor who was elected last year to represent a rural district that includes the tiny cities of Comanche (population under 1,400) and Elgin (about 3,700),
So some backwater representative is proposing something that will never go anywhere. I bet stupid bills like this are proposed weekly.
Why can't we have random proposals for "strip billionaires naked and give 90% of their money to homeless people"?
Because most candidates in both parties rely on the wealthy to fund their electoral race.
They should produce a bunch of political pornography about "Dirty Dusty."
Have you not been paying attention to the laws that red states have been passing for the last decade?
Sure, it'll probably be challenged in court, and if our judicial system isn't complete trash, it'll be repealed. But there's a very real chance it gets passed.
This is just a random proposal. It won't even make it to a point that it needs to go to a court. He's just some dude from a small district that has nothing to do.
I get that American politics are weird AF right now, but shit like this is just posted to get a reaction. When ultimately it might sit on a desk for a week before it ends up in the trash.
I can support that, I hate when they gloss over the storyline or when they’ve forgotten it by the end/don’t follow up how the sex impacted the world
I read this one book where this old guy saw a hooker on the road and paid her in some family heirlooms. A week later, he finds out his daughter-in-law (to his now dead son) is pregnant, and he almost orders her death, but then she shows that she has the heirlooms. He was totally embarrassed and nothing else was said on the matter.
Go for it, no one wants to live in fucking Oklahoma anyway, what a backwards shithole
Scariest part to me is the idea they create death panels.. sorry, felony sentencing panels... sorry, defining what is art and culture panels....
“lacks serious literary, artistic, educational, political, or scientific purposes or value”
Time for porn actors to wear those fancy white wigs, and call it cultural
Historically accurate step mommy!!

They really want a christian theocracy. In 2024. Completely crazy.
Yallqaeda everyone.
They cry about Sharia law because they really want Bible law... It's fucking stone age bullshit, it's absolutely insane we're still dealing with this crap.
I'm not sure I've ever heard "Yallqaeda" before, but I think it's going straight into my lexicon.
Of course, politicians will still watch porn and continue to cheat on their partners. Just you silly peasants won't be able to watch porn, because of Jesus or something!
So this is what our politicians work on all day....
How would the sexting one be enforced exactly ?
Sen. Dusty Deevers
This totally sounds like a pornstar name lol
Equally dusty thinky-bits, it's safe to presume.
My two take aways from the article
- I need to find a way to invest in VPNs somehow
- I need to see what comes up when you search for "sex dick"
sex dick
Tried looking it up on a odder search:

Make America Gilead Again.
I wonder how easily one could "discover" search and sext history for those backing this bill..... and accidently leaving it where their constituents could see how black that pot actually is.
But after it's passed of course. That'd be the quickest a law was ever annulled.
The bill, set to be introduced next month by state Sen. Dusty Deevers (R-Elgin), would prohibit consuming or producing sexual content that “lacks serious literary, artistic, educational, political, or scientific purposes or value” in any medium.
He's not trying to ban porn, it just all has to be like, my hot stepsister teaches me differential equations or slutty milf discusses Chaucer's use of metaphor.
Porn with a political purpose, so they are including language to cover Neanderthal Barby persistently showing stolen nudes of Hunter Biden to everyone she meets.
Everybody's saying this will never go anywhere, but y'all, as someone from Oklahoma, I wouldn't be surprised at all if this bill made it through. I mean yeah, it'd definitely be struck down in court if it did, but I could easily see it happening. 乁( ಠ_ಠ )ㄏ

Let me guess: his wife caught him watching gay porn and since he is a good Christian he wants to save others from falling into the same trap? And now his wife is really proud of him?

Let's get back to the golden era of porn with some good story telling, step bro.
Nearly all of my porn viewing is scientific in nature so I guess is still be okay....
I would like to know more about this sexual content with political purposes, maybe voter turnout would improve
Who's nailin' Paylin?
I don’t know anything about the states really, but this makes Oklahoma sound like a real shithole.
Oklahoma is a garbage pot
No more sex in Oklahoma. It's a dry nethers state.
These people are fucking insane, what the hell. Right wingers will tell you stories about sharia law and how they want to come to other countries and enforce said sharia law, and how that is bad (rightly so).
Yet here they are, advocating for y'all queda's version of sharia law. Fuck these christofascist stochastic terrorists
Freedom and small government, right?
Sen. Dusty Deevers just can't stop thinking about breasts, and yummy penises, and... won't someone help him? Won't the legislature pass a law keeping his hands in the open and off his crotch? Anyone, pass a law!
Just put a candidate endorsement in porn to make it political.
There's really nothing stopping a super PAC from buying pornhub ads, is there?
""We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.—That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed..."
Time for the citizens of OK to speak up.

We should all consider the meta of the situation as well, with an upcoming Republican candidate election, and the need to drive people out to the voting booth.
I'd paint dicks all over the town, so they have to walk around blindfolded or arrest themselves.
thanks a lot Ben Shapiro
So the bill includes AOCs feet?
Brought to you be the people scaremongering about the threat of Sharia law.
🌈Freedom and small government
I'm not from the USA, I thought a felony is a crime at the national level, not the state level? How can a state specify that?
Felony is a more serious crime, misdemeanor is a less serious crime.
But there are federal crimes and state crimes, and we have courts for each.
Felony carries a penalty of imprisonment of a year or more. Misdemeanor is less than a year. Some states have a few crimes classified as elevated misdemeanors and can have slightly longer terms available for sentencing, but those are the exception and they diverge from the history where the terms come from.
Felony is more about severity and consequences.
Misdemeanors punishable by a fine or "short" jail term, and a felony by more than a year in prison.Felonies can also bring penalities like being barred from certain jobs forever, restrictions on firearm ownership and depending on state loosing the ability to vote.
Below those are things like traffic tickets or citations, which are typically a small fine and don't involve a trial, unless you ask to talk to a judge.
Federal vs state is a question of jurisdiction rather than severity. You don't hear about federal misdemeanors very often because federal prosecutors are more interested in things like "interstate smuggling" than "someone urinated in public on the lawn of the Des Moines Federal building".
Or the weird "shot a burro from a helicopter".Personally, I think we really need a crackdown on airborne donkey hunting. (/S)
"Under His Eye"........
A lot of GOP going to land in hot water after they get caught watching trans porn.

Oklahoma no like freedom
What would Jesus text?™
Committing felonies is really hot.
Honestly asking for second opinions: Looking at the report of the actual proposal, it seems to only target sexual content containing people under 18? Am I missing something?
I don't know if I've got this right but it would appear that the proposal will broaden the law holding the definition for child pornography to include watching porn and sexting. So you'll wind up as the same category of a sexual predator as an actual child molester.
Jeebus fucking Christmas
Honestly asking for second opinions: Looking at the report of the actual proposal, it seems to only target sexual content containing people under 18? Am I missing something?
Based on a picture in the article of the first page of the law as its written, it seems to be modifying/enhancing an existing law that currently only affects minors, broadening it so that it covers all ages, and under new additional rules. IANAL.
I also ANAL but I can't imagine this would ever gain any traction outside of drumming up publicity and self-promotion for the guy. This is a clear violation of the 1st Amendment regardless of one's personal politics.
The suggested law would even require social media sites like X to be made unavailable in the Sooner State, unless it heavily censored its content, as the Mary Sue noted.
Yeah okay there's no way this is going to pass. In fact I'm not convinced the guy who proposed it wanted it to.
This bill is the most transparent scaremongering of all time and Lemmy is eating it up
Hey Oklahoma, clearly you have nothing to worry about Sharia law, you're doing a great job at introducing it yourselves.
I hope for a mega screen to appear in the sky and stream 24/7 from pornhub. Premium.
Fascist bigotWhat is this, an attempt to stop women from making too much money with their onlyfans?
only in oklahoma
WTF?! Porn has been a big part of the internet.
If all porn was elimimated from the internet there would only be one site left www.bringbacktheporn.com
These bills are ridiculous on their face, and I believe that is on purpose. The people proposing these bills know they haven't got a snowball's chance in Hell of passing, but that's not the point. The point is to gum up the works.
Oklahoma, are you OK? (couldn't resist. hopefully they don't outlaw puns as well.)
OK, are you OK? Are you OK, OK?
-gotta get that right tune stuck in the head
Oklahoma is not the entire US, thank you very much.
It is a state of the US, and this is just the latest radical conservative measure to get onto legislative debate floors.
As has happened many times over the last few decades, the rightwingnuts will throw around a bunch of similar bills with slightly different wording in a bunch of atates to find out which version can survive the inevitable challenges.
I can't believe it's men who want this law, it sounds like a feminist wet dream. Marriages are going to the rise, but at what cost? Who's benefiting and where's the money behind it?
In strict Islamic countries like pakistan, afganistan, yemen+ many middleeastern countries and some provinces in bangladish, india and so on.., men have 0 access to pussy; it's all illegal: no porn, no escorts, and no girlfriends are allowed, ( gay is not even an option on this list). so everyone gets married early, and there's hardly any grown person who is not, but these laws are miserable for men
Sounds like you've travelled in those countries and really know what you're talking about.
I mean, SWERFs are a thing, but that they are a meaningful category is in major part because they don't represent mainline feminist thought.
