Well yes. Thats what the whole conserve part of conservative is about. They want to prevent change because they believe all change is bad.

At this point they are the ones wanting the change. The change backwards! The original change they are fighting against has already happened.

They've been behind some of the most radical change over the last half century, at least in the US.

Finally people are talking about this, it's easily the scariest part of Project 2025. Arresting LGBTQ+ people and grouping them with child abusers is exactly how the Holocaust started.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Experts have noted that worries about pornography among social conservatives seem to go up and down over time: right now we seem to be at a high point of porn panic.

The Republican Missouri senator Josh Hawley, for example, has repeatedly claimed that feminism has driven young men to “pornography and video games”.

Porn also plays a big part in Project 2025: a Christian nationalist manifesto and list of desired policy proposals from the Heritage Foundation that has been described as “a wishlist for a Trump presidency”.

The 900-page plan proposes policies like mass deportations, extreme abortion restrictions and the dismantling of climate change protections.

“Pornography, manifested today in the omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology … is as addictive as any illicit drug and as psychologically destructive as any crime.

Woman’s World is Perry’s first solo single in three years and, the singer explained, the first thing she’s done “since becoming a mother and since feeling really connected to my feminine divine”.
