7 days agoI don’t feel like generating a Venn diagram but only two of those States, Missouri and Virginia, have banned child marriage. The rest have yet to do so.

I don’t think people really know about it just yet because it was snuck in. Here’s a link to a description of how it worked. https://sh.itjust.works/comment/21379500

I 100% agree with you. Fuck those fucking fuckers.
Do you want the real answer or a pithy quip that’s suitable for a retweet?
The zone has been so entirely flooded that I can’t find Ohioans that know about this.
Also, Ohio’s age verification law was tucked into House Bill 96, the state’s two-year operating budget bill that was over 3,000 pages long (specifically 3,156 pages). The provision appears in Section 1349.10 of the budget bill, which was signed by Governor DeWine on June 30, 2025.
Unlike other states that passed age verification as standalone legislation, Ohio specifically “nestled” the age verification requirements into the state’s operating budget rather than making it a bill in its own right.
So it’s not a matter of it being “accepted”. Those shitheels just slid it in under the radar.
Also, like that other person said, there are legitimately education challenges in Ohio.
In the late 90s, the way Ohio funds schools was found to be unconstitutional, that is according to the state constitution not the US Constitution, and that has yet to be fully rectified but that’s a whole other fucking can of worms.
The best part is, Blue sky is complying in advance and this is preventing Free speech. https://techcrunch.com/2025/09/29/bluesky-rolls-out-age-verification-for-users-in-ohio/
It may be small government but that’s how they’re winning.

I simply cannot argue against that line of reasoning. I definitely agree.
