Apologies for the double post, but since KOSA is coming up for vote in the House, it’s imperative we call our Reps of both parties to urge a “no” vote. Resistance to the bill from the public has drastically diminished, and it’ll be devastating for queer rights and abortion access, which was confirmed by the Heritage Foundation as their intent.
Below are the respective scripts to use if your Rep is a Democrat, and if your Rep is a Republican. I think I posted scripts for the Senate version earlier, but it has since passed and the wording is different here.

The real regulation to pass is more responsibility pushed onto the platform holders and ensuring they have free speech. Maybe also a law mandating that people are fed a variety of material.
But this one comes straight out of the ‘war on terror’ book.

Instead of going with a pragmatic solution based on data and experts they go with the time tested strategy of “protecting the kids”.

The Teamsters union announced it will not endorse any candidate for the presidential race after its members were unable to come to a consensus.
Their poll numbers showed 58% of its members supported Trump, while Harris received 31% support.
Something to keep in mind when their pensions come up…

It kind of amazes me that they’d favor the guy that said companies should be able to fire striking members, favored “right to work” legislation, and proposed job killing tariffs.
I find the fact that the data showed Biden winning the Teamsters rank and file back a month ago, but it flipped when Harris took charge to be rather amusing.
What’s the matter? Is the powerful black lady too scwary for the big stwong men?
And before anyone asks, I’m a card carrying union man, son of a union boss, and been to more pickets and strikes than most people have been to other states. So I’m well within my rights to talk shit about this decision.

STOP PROJECT 2025!
A House panel advanced the Kids Online Safety Act bill, also known as KOSA, on Wednesday, pushing forward legislation intended to boost online privacy and safety for children.
The House Energy and Commerce Committee’s advancement of KOSA hands advocacy groups a temporary win following weeks of uncertainty about the bill’s future amid GOP pushback. Some lawmakers could be heard opposing in the voice vote, though the roll was not called.

Speaking of the channer VP candidate, when asked about Laura Loomer’s racist attack on Harris making the White House smell like curry, Vance responded:
whether you’re eating curry at your dinner table or fried chicken, things have gotten more expensive thanks to her policies.’”
MAGA really can’t help themselves. It’s their skull shapes.

I can respect that and deven approve of it. The democrats should have to work for union endorsement. If they can take it for granted they will sell the unions out like Clinton did.

I think they should call “right to work” the “right to scab” cause that’s what it is really.
@CaptainXtra
There’s still a chance that GOP will pushback.
You think they will push back. They LOVE the idea of government spying on people and restricting what they can do.

How to say this is the ‘mixed-tech degeneration/devolution of conflict’ style war without saying it’s the fucking end-times for that nation.
Next I fully expect muzzle loading muskets with laser sights.
They’re well on their way to the Mad Max war. Like - you can almost smell Planet Of The Apes from that picture.

For EU citizens: European Union has its own “think about the kids” evil legislation going on. Dubbed Chat Control, it aims to forbid or backdoor end-to-end encryption in order to “scan messages for child abuse”. I think it’s obvious how making messages unencrypted is bad for everyone including children. Six countries oppose it, but it’s not enough. 7 are undecided, 13 support it. You can help by asking your government to oppose it and by sharing this info online.

Non-US conservative politicians that claim to “support families” usually support the things you mentioned.
@Background Human
I do believe that this is indeed restrained Israel, or at least somewhat restrained. They do make an effort to avoid civilian casualties, though they could definitely try harder. If they didn’t have to care about western sensibilities, there would be many more deaths. I don’t think they would purposefully target civilians, but they would sacrifice civilian lives with no afterthought for meager military objectives. Remember when disguised Israeli forces raided a hospital to kill three Hamas members? Supposedly Hamas was using the hospital “as a base to plan terrorist attacks”. Israel planned a complicated operation, spent money and took risks to kill only those three dudes and no one else. Unrestrained Israel would likely just confirm those dudes were inside and bombed the part of the hospital they were in. Simple, cheap, no need to risk trained operators, civilians would be acceptable collateral damage.
