When banging your step mum is legal but watching a fictional video of someone else banging their step mum is illegal 🤪 welcome to the UK ladies and gentlemen.

It's legal if you submit your ID to the government and have it recorded in the masterbaitorbase that you whacked off to that video. What, don't make it weird... /s

Be sure you don't call a genocide a genocide. Wouldn't be proper.

[–] Aceticon@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 3 days ago

That would legally be "supporting terrorism" and socially be "anti-semitism".

[–] WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 23 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Well, it's not really different to supporting a genocidal fascist dictatorship and declaring everyone who supports their victims "terrorists"...

The world is an idiocracy and the majority of humanity are mentally ill. The world would not be as fucking stupid and insane as it is if the average person was logical.

...if the people weren't intentionally under-educated and manipulated en masse for generations to prefer illogical, irrational, and self-destructive patterns by their respective "government".

FTFY.

I say, a discrete bit of buggery is one thing but enjoying it… that’s another! /s

To be fair, the headline is overblown since they are banning step-incest porn where one of the individuals is pretending to be underage.

[–] CmdrShepard49@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Which begs the question of "what do they mean by pretending to be underage?" I seriously doubt any of the actors are going to claim to be underage in the video as that would get their videos removed from any mainstream platform. Another user suggested that this is based on body type meaning petite actresses are going to be the ones targeted as being "illegal" just for existing as they are despite being of age.

If they ban Vina Sky, I'm going on strike. If they don't, I'm going on stroke

[–] olafurp@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Yeah, it looks very vague and possible targeting videos that don't exist, have no effect and still give Starmer a political win?

Starmer could use it but his reverse hand of midas is going to turn it to shit no matter who.

But what about if you need to evidence that you had sex with your step-mom, you know, for the normal legal reasons?
