"Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart
from it."
the elites don't want "unapproved" ideas getting into the minds of malleable youth...shaping the minds of youth is solely the province of our benevolent elites...

#5Anyone voting for this is clearly not fit to hold their position. Aside from the stupidity of thinking this is enforceable, it's hamfisted and misguided.
When they propose such open-ended legislation there should be an ability for an outside party to make every single one of them fill out a survey of "Would this be allowed/disallowed under the new law?" with a bunch of examples. If the people who voted for it don't have consistency in their answers within some percentage (something like 95% must answer identically) then the bill is rejected since they clearly have no idea what they are talking about.

A lot of parents don't want unapproved media to reach their kids. If something like this passes, it's going to be at least because of parental support.

#7This is probably for the best.
I’m fine saying “think of the children” when you’re talking about … children.
There’s really bad stuff out there.

You're expecting our politicians to actually understand the laws they vote on? That's just insane. What's next? Banning bills that are thousands of pages long and include countless things that are entirely unrelated to the actual topic of the bill? Come on.

Funny thing is that I guarantee a lot of the parents in support of dumb shit like this lose their minds at sexual education classes in public schools. Just shows that most people don't have the IQ necessary to be competent parents.

I know, I know, it's a crazy concept. I just get so frustrated seeing people pass bills on subjects that they have zero knowledge or can't even explain how it would be enforced. It would also be a nice resource to the layman, "Here are a list of examples/scenarios that would/would not run afoul of this law".
