I don’t think promoting population growth through cutting off porn, there’s no data to suggest a correlation between those two things.
Population growth is more influenced by providing the population with enough income and secure housing so that they’re not stressed and scared all of the time. This would hurt earnings and that would upset the handful of people who control most of the private/public equity in the country, so obviously this will not stand a chance of happening until they can’t buy politicians.
Banning porn is mostly a ‘I’m going to do this thing for this niche group in order to get votes to get/stay in power’. It’s to give the social conservatives/Sunday preachers an excuse to talk politics and to do campaign rallies for the people voting for the bills.
