At least until someone tells Trump that means his little social network can be held accountable for everything those nazi humpers on it say.

He'll just cash out and let it burn. He got what he wanted out of it.
It's odd that you would say that, after admitting multiple times that we're already living in a dictatorship.
there is an amazing level of difference between criminal accountability, which he needs to be held to, and civil liability which is what i was talking about here.
More to the point, it was a hyperbolic statement showing the absurdity of removing this particular rule especially as it can have such potential damage to the Melon Felon.
It passed and was signed this time, as of yesterday. KOSA is back on the docket federally, too.
On the other hand, all those annoying cookie warning popups may be going away:
EU ruling: tracking-based advertising by Google, Microsoft, Amazon, X, across Europe has no legal basis
Landmark court decision against “TCF” consent pop ups on 80% of the internet

Again, what does anyone shilling this stuff actually hope to get out of it? What benefit could eradicating "adult material" actually have? What good does censoring the most random stuff on the internet get anyone? So far all I can come up with is it's "infinite money for me forever" (somehow) and/or "we control the horizontal and the vertical, we own you now". It's practically cartoon villainy at this point.
(Yes, slightly rhetorical. I know the actual answer is "destroy anyone that disagrees with me and my views".)
No politician that's loud about "protect the children" actually gives a damn about real children. It's just the best lever they have to make anyone opposing them look bad. (Hint: if you actually cared about real kids, politicos, you wouldn't be using your other hand to gut health care, education, and social services.)
And of course anyone spouting this BS won't be affected by it, remember consequences are for normals...

Their goal is to get anyone and anything not-straight labeled as "adult material."
The ultimate goal is to make it illegal for LGBTQ+ people to exist.
Hence the rhetorical, yes. And my reactions to this crap still make me feel stupid, because I keep trying to apply logic to their bigotry (which is impossible).
And to dictate standards for female dress and force them back to the 50s and earlier.
But, yes, mostly to declare all LGBTQ+ people as illegal
