The problem you describe for Voter ID does not exist. I mean that literally - people who attempt that already get caught. Voter ID laws do demonstrably create a hurdle for certain people who should be eligible to vote to actually do so - they do this by design, because the State could absolutely just mail voter ID cards for free to every registered voter, or allow some 2FA method of voting remotely (as with mail-in ballots) which from context I am already fairly certain you do not support.

Similarly, your take on porn is trying to solve a problem that does not exist. Parental controls are more than capable. I didn't use them with my teen because I didn't feel the need to. She has a very healthy understanding of and sense of responsibility toward sex. We are extremely open about sex in my house. I do not, and don't think any parent would, support strangers coming into my home to dictate what is a healthy sexual attitude for my child.

I am not a leftist, and currently have several leftists yelling at me for correcting their poor assumptions and understanding of how the world works. Not sure why you keep bringing up leftists.
