Michigan Republicans are now pushing a total ban on pornography

Anti-LGBTQ+ Michigan State Rep. Josh Schriver (R) proposed a total porn ban that would prohibit the distribution of “real, animated, digitally generated, written, or auditory” depictions of sexual acts. It would make it a crime to send a nude selfie or any sexual image to anyone for any reason. Five other state Republican lawmakers co-sponsored the legislation.

Schriver’s bill, H.B. 4938 (the “Anticorruption of Public Morals Act”) outlaws any depictions of penetrative or oral sexual intercourse, self-pleasuring, climax, sado-masochism, and even autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR), a phenomenon — often triggered by specific auditory or visual stimuli (like whispering or slow movements) — where a pleasant tingling sensation moves from the scalp down the neck and spine.

[...]

In February, Schriver introduced a non-binding resolution telling the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn same-sex marriage rights. He said the court’s landmark 2015 decision legalizing marriage equality nationwide “has widened a portal where gays, queers, transsexuals, polygamists, minor attracted persons, and other perverts advance attacks on our children,” echoing decades-old attacks demonizing LGBTQ+ people as pedophiles.

How utterly unsurprising.
Didn't even wait to reveal their true motives.
