he bill, set to be introduced next month by state Sen. Dusty Deevers (R-Elgin), would prohibit consuming or producing sexual content that “lacks serious literary, artistic, educational, political, or scientific purposes or value” in any medium.
Deevers, a Baptist pastor who was elected last year to represent a rural district that includes the tiny cities of Comanche (population under 1,400) and Elgin (about 3,700),
So some backwater representative is proposing something that will never go anywhere. I bet stupid bills like this are proposed weekly.

There’s no way that dude is not railing twinks every weekend.
I’m not saying that’s a bad thing, but his doubtless moral hypocrisy is rustling like a loud chip bag in the movies.
Go for it, no one wants to live in fucking Oklahoma anyway, what a backwards shithole

i dont understand how things like this can even be pushed to begin with.
It's like banning a word because it makes you think of things that are somewhat unpleasant.

Of course, politicians will still watch porn and continue to cheat on their partners. Just you silly peasants won't be able to watch porn, because of Jesus or something!

How would the sexting one be enforced exactly ?
The same way all these other proposed tech bans happen: they won't.

Make America Gilead Again.
I wonder how easily one could "discover" search and sext history for those backing this bill..... and accidently leaving it where their constituents could see how black that pot actually is.
Everybody's saying this will never go anywhere, but y'all, as someone from Oklahoma, I wouldn't be surprised at all if this bill made it through. I mean yeah, it'd definitely be struck down in court if it did, but I could easily see it happening. 乁( ಠ_ಠ )ㄏ

The bill, set to be introduced next month by state Sen. Dusty Deevers (R-Elgin), would prohibit consuming or producing sexual content that “lacks serious literary, artistic, educational, political, or scientific purposes or value” in any medium.
