I simply cannot argue against that line of reasoning. I definitely agree.

I don’t feel like generating a Venn diagram but only two of those States, Missouri and Virginia, have banned child marriage. The rest have yet to do so.

I don’t think people really know about it just yet because it was snuck in. Here’s a link to a description of how it worked. https://sh.itjust.works/comment/21379500

I 100% agree with you. Fuck those fucking fuckers.

Do you want the real answer or a pithy quip that’s suitable for a retweet?

The zone has been so entirely flooded that I can’t find Ohioans that know about this.

Also, Ohio’s age verification law was tucked into House Bill 96, the state’s two-year operating budget bill that was over 3,000 pages long (specifically 3,156 pages). The provision appears in Section 1349.10 of the budget bill, which was signed by Governor DeWine on June 30, 2025.

Unlike other states that passed age verification as standalone legislation, Ohio specifically “nestled” the age verification requirements into the state’s operating budget rather than making it a bill in its own right.

So it’s not a matter of it being “accepted”. Those shitheels just slid it in under the radar.

Also, like that other person said, there are legitimately education challenges in Ohio.

In the late 90s, the way Ohio funds schools was found to be unconstitutional, that is according to the state constitution not the US Constitution, and that has yet to be fully rectified but that’s a whole other fucking can of worms.

The best part is, Blue sky is complying in advance and this is preventing Free speech. https://techcrunch.com/2025/09/29/bluesky-rolls-out-age-verification-for-users-in-ohio/

It may be small government but that’s how they’re winning.

Just wait till they see what happens when they ban you block origin. lol.

Wait, Trump was the 58th president? I smell an AI article.

Will or funding. Replacement of a system that initially cost 5mil to install and configure in 2009 is gonna cost 2x that at least to replace.

Kinda have mixed feelings about this. Those who are innocent know that they are on the list at the cost of their SSN or national ID. Bit of a mixed blessing there.

Also, a bunch of truly bad actors will be compromised. Maybe that’s good?

Hmm. Dunno how to feel.
