I imagine the free speech people will be livid about this
Or how about these hogs going off spouting Orwell when they’re the ones doing the thought police shit and policing language.
It’s absolutely Orwellian that you want police with accountability for there actions!

Also wonder what the anti-woke word for child bride is given that WV is one of the few states that aggressively permits that shit. Junior woman of married status? Provisional adult? 🤔
“his property”
?? WV is shitty for a lot of reasons, including this bill (seriously, there are more important things to deal with than being upset someone called it “chestfeeding” instead of “breastfeeding”).
But marriage in WV is 18+, 16+ if the person and their parents both sign paperwork to approve, and their spouse is no more than 4 years older than them. I wouldn’t call that aggressively permitting child brides, not compared to say California which technically has no hard minimum age of marriage unless they’ve changed the law in the last few years.
WV conservatives seem to be very pro child marriage. Pretty weird if you ask me.
It’s always a red flag when someone has intimate knowledge of child marriage laws and comes out the gate swinging to defend them
True, but I also hail from another, equally crappy state and also get annoyed at the pile ons, but then I remember the reasons why I left lol.
18, 16 with parental consent is pretty typical in the US. Like a majority of states.
There are only ten that have no under 18 marriage under any circumstances, most work basically the same as WV, two actually require you to be older than 18, and California has no hard minimum. Massachusetts is one of the states with a hard limit of 18, but that was only passed in 2022, before that Massachusetts had no hard minimum same as California.
As for being weirdly familiar with these laws, five minutes with Google can get you there.
The whole point is it’s dumb to pick on WV for having essentially the same rules as a majority of states as opposed to the 20% who don’t consider parental or judicial approval good enough for an exception, the two who don’t consider 18 old enough or the one with no minimum.
Literally all the terms have to do with pregnancy, breastfeeding, or menstruation. Like “birth-giver” is banned and the replacement word is “woman.”
Also it’s very odd seeing official government documents refer to words as woke, as if it has a standard agreed upon definition. The bill goes on to specify that the banned terms are sexist and exclusionary (lmao republicans worried about being sexist in a state that completely bans abortion). I can’t stop thinking about how that one DeSantis admin person had to define wokeness to a federal judge and the best they could come up with is “a belief that society is unfair and that it should change.”
What is more feminist than stopping the murder of future women (babies)?
Wtf they literally just destroyed their flagship university, one of the few things they still had going for them. Do they want more brain drain? Because it’s already been happening for a while. Pretty soon there won’t be any people left.
Yeah but did you see how owned the left is
Do they want more brain drain?
yes
Do they want more brain drain?
There is a theory that they do indeed want a brain drain.

“Huh I wonder why hate speech got banned in California! It clearly couldn’t have been because we set a precedent of banning words just because they annoy us.”
All the problems they have going on and this… Fucking this… Wow.
