Comment on How can a US state block porn?

As you’ve accurately identified, they can’t. Best they have is say “nooo you can’t” and hope sites comply out of pure fear. Even if they could, VPN.
They also completely bungled prohibition, drug prohibition, and the states with restrictive gun laws are bungling that. And women from the anti abortion states can still get out of state abortions.
Bans don’t actually work, especially when there’s already an abundance and the banned thing in question is easy to produce.

I will just add how Republicans try to ban everything they don’t like, but when it comes to banning guns they are like “Bans Don’t Work!”
The point is that Republicans never do anything in good faith. It’s always lies and hypocrisy.

Tbh I agree with them on that, bans don’t work.
But also I say the same to them regarding the ones they do want. Just because they’re hypocrites doesn’t mean I have to be!
Ban bans lol.

Bans implemented poorly don’t work. And it also depends on what you consider a success. Can you ban anything 100 %? No, but that doesn’t mean some shit should not be banned
