Stop KOSA. Why the KOSA Bill is Dangerous and Should be Rejected
KOSA is a censorship bill that won’t make kids safe. Instead, it'll put all internet users at risk, especially youth. If you believe in a free and open internet, tell your lawmakers to reject #KOSA!
KOSA is a bill that aims to protect children online but it would do so in harmful ways. First, it would pressure platforms to install content filters that would censor large amounts of content, including important suicide prevention and LGBTQ+ support resources. Content filters have a history of overblocking important information. Second, KOSA would ramp up online surveillance of all users by expanding age verification and parental monitoring tools. These tools are unnecessarily invasive and pose risks to young people trying to escape abuse. Over 90 rights groups agree that KOSA is dangerous and cannot be fixed through amendments. If you value a free and open internet, contact your lawmakers to reject KOSA.

Same thing with banning books. This is fascist bullshit and it's not about protecting children or anyone else. It's about pushing their false Christianity, their christofascism on everyone whether they like it or not and trying to turn the country into a fascist "Christian" theocractic dictatorship where they can say and do whatever they want whenever they want about anything or anyone but no one else can.
I was with you til the "false" part. As someone who grew up in a sect that actually read the book, ain't nothing false about this Christianity or these Christians.
It's inconvenient to admit, but the bible is an awful awful book.
I have actually read it cover to cover as well. But just because something is written in a book doesn't make it true. The genre of fiction exists. And the very concept of religion, all of them are made up. As in there was a time in the history of Earth where no religion existed. Dinosaurs didn't have religion for example, and they came before humans, who created religion.
Jesus, whom they claim to love/worship/etc., would be labeled a dirty commie/socialist by them for wanting to help the poor, sick, and needy. And for loving everyone. They hate Jesus. They worship supply side Jesus AKA Republican Jesus.
I think maybe you misread (looking back my comment wasn't worded great). I don't believe anything in the Bible is true.
What I'm saying is that they are acting consistently with their faith. Jesus said
a lot ofsome cool stuff, but it doesn't erase all of the horrific shit that their god did before, and how their god tells them to act. And don't forget their god is literally also Jesus. The guy who killed every first born Jew in Egypt (unless you performed a blood magick ritual), and ruined the life of his most faithful servant, killing his family in the process, just to make a point to "the devil". The guy who almost made his #1 prophet murder his own son just for the lulz.That's Jesus too. And any Christian who disagrees is a heretic.
And no, Jesus didn't "replace" the old law or whatever bullshit people like to tell themselves. The bible is very clear that those rules are still in place.
Jesus himself said he was there to fulfill the law. Meaning the Old Testament. And that is problematic. He was literally ok with owning humans as property, and that it's ok to beat them as long as you don't kill them. Because they're a thing that you own. That's the law Jesus came to fulfill, and not once did he renounce a single word of it.
"Oh but that was just the way things were then..." Yeah, so the son of God (who is also literally God) can't say, oh I don't know, "slavery is an abomination. You cannot own humans"? Didn't want to cause trouble? Jesus, the guy super well known for staying in line and not rocking the boat 🙄.
A book that would go on to be used as justification for chattal slavery in North America, and cause more pain and suffering than any of us could possibly imagine.
People like to act like their bible doesn't say this shit, and that folks like Westboro Baptist don't follow the same book (when they actually follow it more closely). The reality is, Christianity is ugly stuff, and it's wholly incompatible with a modern (peaceful) society.
