@fluffykittycat@Jes i'd be careful on the word "bullying" as it's too broad and quickly leads to needless overreach, but i wholly agree that you gotta bug the shit out of them. actively make their job more difficult to do- and critically, more difficult to hold. tell them and all your friends and family who you'll be voting for instead because "they don't support draconian surveillance laws"
@agatha@fluffykittycat are they that young? for reference, we have a representative in ireland that's literally my age- she's still attending college while serving her constituents. notably, she's on an incredibly left-leaning party. that's the kind of thing i'm talking about.
the laws are also popular because of lobbying and fearmongering. it's no mistake that persona has taken a stranglehold on the "age verification industry" while being backed by peter thiel.
re: pol@root@fluffykittycat a 1940 movie... this shit comes around every once in a while through human history, as if compassion and hatred come in waves like a cultural metronome. the best we can do is make sure our compassion is effective, and outlasts us even a little.
@fluffykittycat i hope you can find some comfort in that the current generation of politicians are growing old and grey and dying- much of our generation has grown into adulthood, and we'll be writing the laws soon enough. the old guys who refuse to acknowledge their constituents will be running out of support in due time.
