What I sent to my electeds regarding KOSA

I beg of you, please understand what a weapon KOSA is. For anyone who wants to censor the internet, who wants to simply remove whole populations of people from the public sphere of discourse. Any single person, any group, that can be slandered with "but what if CHILDREN see what these people are saying and doing?????" can have their online life erased. Queer people. Folks talking about reproductive health. People who want to discuss divorce. Folks who want to talk about harm reduction in drug use. Trans people. People advocating for gun control.

Anything that could be framed as "Anti-family" or "harm to children" can be censored by any attorney general who gets a wild hair about a specific issue. You know that. I know you know that. And you seem hellbent on fellow-traveller-ing right along this paved road of good intention straight into censorship hell.

Stop. KOSA.

Vote against KOSA.

Please do not give this loaded weapon into the hands of people who want to erase knowledge, community, and access from the public sphere.

I do not want my life or the lives of my wife and kids to be erased from community. Please vote no on KOSA.

!PLEASE READ!

I see a lot of people saying to stop kosa and then giving no info about what kosa is.

So here are some sites to get educated about it- https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2023/05/kids-online-safety-act-still-huge-danger-our-rights-online

Please lmk if there are any helpful sites that you want me to add :]

"We are trying to protect the children from harmful materials and content 🥺"

You aren't.

You're putting the children and queers in danger.

You're harming them and killing them.

You cannot expect them to be "safe" when you are making their life miserable.

If you don't want kids consuming shit then why don't you suggest parents DOWNLOAD any parental controls app or monitor their devices properly. (Like you know. Not letting them consume those stupid shit) Or I don't know! Why don't you track any pedophiles and kill them?

Pedophiles don't deserve to breathe the same air that we have. They don't deserve to be alive after what they did to those poor souls, they don't deserve a damn "raise". You dumbasses are letting those disgusting pigs harm more kids and not doing your job properly. You filthy animals should be ASHAMED of yourself for not doing the job properly. ASHAME ON YOU.

you are an embarrassment to the human race. If you REALLY and I mean 100% WORRIED about their safety then FIX IT! ENCOURAGE THE PARENTS TO ADD MONITORS. IT'S NOT HARD TO ADVERTISE A FUCKING PARENTAL CONTROL OR BAN THOSE NSFW ACCOUNTS.

HOW HARD IS IT FOR Y'ALL TO REPORT OR BAN THOSE PEOPLE????? WHA--

So, today I was on Reddit reading about KOSA, and I found this on r/AO3

Here's the Invest in Child Safety Act, it only has *five* cosponsors compared to KOSA's sixty-three.. wonder why..

Anyways, I was wondering, could steering reps away from KOSA while leading them towards other and SAFER bills help? :P

If these bills really ARE safer, wouldn't it give us a better chance of KOSA not being passed if we gave our Senators and Reps examples of alternative bills they could support?

Like, instead of just saying "DON'T DO THIS!!!" We could say "DON'T DO THIS, but THIS is a better alternative that will keep everyone safe AND actually be helpful."

I have a feeling most of the Democrats supporting this bill have fallen for the "We're protecting the children!!" farse. So, let's not just tell them the problem, but offer a solution! An alternative that will ACTUALLY protect children.

I suppose I got lucky with those first few KOSA posts, and I don't know if anybody will see this.. but it was just a thought I had, plus the Reddit post doesn't have a lot of traction either, so I thought I'd try and share it.

Please post this on other sites, on Twitter, TikTok, other Reddit pages, etc. I only ask that you cover-up my username :]

Also use the tag #Invest in Child Safety Act if you reblog this!
