Pornography, category of content that the Supreme Court cannot defineIt could soon be completely illegal in Oklahoma. State Senator Dusty Deevers (that’s his real name, not his porn name) recently offered a lot of laws on moral police including one who would send any person who produces, distributes, or has adult content to prison up to 10 years.
The bill, SB 593would increase existing penalties for any engagement with pornographic material. It would increase the penalty for possession and distribution of child pornography, creating a new minimum of 10 years behind bars, with a maximum of 50-year prison sentence for repeated offenders. But along with that, it would set up a direct ban on porn, painstaking people even for material produced and distributed legally. The penalty for “production, distribution or possession” would begin up to 10 years, with a 10 to 30-year sentence for “organized pornographic traffic.”
In a press release, Deevers described pornography as “both degenerate material and very toxic drug”, which “ruins marriages, ruins lives, destroys innocence, perceives the perception of young people on the opposite sex, makes women into objects, make men into objects, degenerate ..
The ban on porn is only one bill in slate, which Deevers says that “aims to restore moral health in Oklahoma.” This includes a law that would illegally make people order and use abortion pills, ban no failure divorce and offer $ 2,500 tax credits to people who choose “bond marriages” who can only be resolved in cases of abuse, adultery. , or abandonment. Deevers said the laws are drawn to roll the degeneration of the “left” in the state, despite the fact that Republicans have held All three branches of state government Since 2010.
Oklahoma already has an age-control law on the books that Prevents anyone under the age of 18 of access to pornography – a decision that turned out Pornhub pulling out of the state. But that doesn’t seem to go far enough for Deevers, who would like the content to be banned directly.
There are legitimate criticisms of the pornographic industry and people must be encouraged to consider their relationship with the material that can often be a result of abuse And Exploitable work practices. Unfortunately, most of the industry’s criticism stems from moral police ghouls as Deevers, who are invested in forced traditionalism, which is in line with their own religious beliefs instead of dealing with any anxious implications of the Business of sex under capitalist systems And it is more interesting to make sure that everyone avoids their eyes to everything he thinks is offensive instead of doing something to protect sex workers.
