and even if someone thinks "well I don't like/look at porn so why should it be a priority for me?" it's important to remember that when christofascists say "porn" they also mean age-appropriate comprehensive sex education, media with queer/trans people in it, and picture books about gay penguins.
I know smut may seem like a frivolous thing to be upset about, but crushing it is part of fascism. Controlling all forms of sexual expression is fascism. Only allowing certain kinds is fascism. Smut peddlers are always canaries in the coal mines.

Opposing fascist garbage is the only way to protect the rights of women, people of color, non-Christian religious minorities, queers of all types, sexual minorities, sex workers, and anyone else the christofascists don't like.

Unironically, that includes the christofascists themselves. If there's one thing you can guarantee a Christian hates it is other Christians.

There's a reason the most zealous advocates for freedom of speech and religion in what became the US were ultrareligious. Separation of church and state was meant to protect actual freedom of conscience - I really doubt the sincerity of faith of these publicly "religious" people who want to end it.

I can see how that would work.

AIUI, some of the first legal battles over sponsored prayers in public schools in the US were Roman Catholics suing to stop Bible readings in class. Because de facto US Christianity is generic Protestant, so the readings were from the King James Version.
