From late-night host cancellations to removing LGBTQ+ history from government sites, politicians in both parties are contributing to the overwriting of the internet — a place where lots of queer and trans people first find community.
One of the few things that seemingly all political parties agree on is that the government should get to control every single part of your digital world - especially what you can read/write/see online. It’s disgusting. The UK especially has gone off the deep end, arresting thousands of people under their new “online hate speech” laws for ridiculous things.
IDK why but my state’s governor also backed internet censorship, and now I need a VPN just to look at porn.
