A sex education platform is part of the Free Speech Coalition's lawsuit against the "age verification" law in Louisiana.

That is one to remember anytime a lawmaker acts as if it's just about "porn".

They also disproportionately remove LGBT content and even try to intimidate people from posting it by referring to it as "abuse" (in one case, this was a response to the use of the word "transgender").

Patreon is a hate group.

Evangeline is very strong. One of the strongest mages in the world.
I'm not sure it's even possible to kill her. Only seal her away lol

Her creator got elected to Japan's legislature lol

At one point, they even wanted to remove all porn, although they backed down begrudgingly due to community backlash.

Patreon has a real weird obsession with bestiality, even censoring some furry porn.

It makes me wonder if the company isn't run by a religious zealots spooked by the prospect of sodomy.

The Free Speech Coalition files a lawsuit against Louisiana, arguing the "age verification" law is a violation of the First Amendment (which of course it is).

Another problem with heavy "regulations" is how it only takes one inconvenient war to throw a wrecking ball through Silicon Valley's finances.

He's not even an immortal vampire mage who can walk in sunlight. He just doesn't age for no reason.

Looking at Twitter and it is so feral there lol

Someone talking about cat girls.

"Algorithms make social networks appear more active than they actually are." Smart. It's likely to have something to sell to investors.

Apparently, the police tried to intimidate a civil rights attorney for daring to sue them, and to record them.

@ceoln I have concerns about the Zuck here, although it's hard for me to argue they shouldn't federate.

Drag bans might even accidentally ban kilts (a British / Scottish cultural practice) or wrestling (since the outfits are very exaggerated).
