Global religious extremism is on the rise, and the most underrated extremist force is the Christofascist movements. They’re an unmitigated disaster and a risk to global order and stability and whose clerical leaders rape and abuse children.
If I were religious, I’d call the forces evil and demonic, but anyone with half a brain realises these people are just deeply greedy, sadistic, and narcissistic control freaks.

When the UK last year implemented a similar age verification system for adult sites, in the first week of it launching, four of the top five downloaded apps in the Apple app store were virtual private network (VPN) apps, with Proton reporting an 1,800% increase in downloads of its VPN app.
VPNs allow users to appear to sites that they’re in another location, which could bypass age check requirements in Australia.
