Well, We Have a Speaker. He’s an Election Denier and an Extreme Christian Fundamentalist.
newrepublic.com
Republicans have at long last elected a House speaker: Representative Mike Johnson, a fundamentalist Christian who was also once called a key “architect” in Congress’s efforts to overthrow the 2020 election.
Johnson finally secured the speaker’s gavel after Republican infighting left the House without a speaker for 22 days. He secured 220 votes.
Johnson is a four-term congressman representing Louisiana. His win also represents the rise of the MAGA front in the Republican Party. Earlier Wednesday morning, Donald Trump endorsed Johnson as House speaker—after quickly killing Mike Emmer’s nomination the day before.

"Hey its not a good idea to let children have unfettered access to pornography on the internet" "YOU JUST DONT WANT KIDS TO BE GAY!"
Where are the parents? Or daddy state has to take care of your children also?
It's about control. Same with abortion, control. Same with banning books, control.
Why is censorship the answer? Can't parents and the educational system teach children to avoid it themselves and be responsible with their internet usage? That seems like a much more holistic answer to this problem.
are you anti censorship? seems people on this site are very happy censoring things they believe to be problematic.
and yes, telling kids about something that they will enjoy but telling them to stay away from it has worked many times before. There is way too much pornographic content on social media sites that children use, and its almost a guarantee they will encounter it. The web didn't used to be like that.
Maybe parents shouldn’t let their kids have unrestricted access to the internet? I’m not sure why so many folks think it’s alright to just hand a small child an iPad and never check what they’re doing.
you can't monitor your kids 24/7. and if you had parental trackers on the device people here will call you abusive.
"Hey censorship isn't a good idea." "YOU'RE JUST TRYING TO MAKE MY KIDS GAY!" Two can play the strawman game. Parents should do anything with their children or just not have them.
Are you anti censorship? Seems a lot of people are okay censoring things they find problematic i.e. transphobia, racism, etc
