In this case the boy children in question did something very bad.

Because the US has explicitly committed to not invading it despite hosting Russian military bases.

But online porn did kill the dirty movie theater. AI porn seems like it'll kill actually filmed porn but not strip clubs.

This young lady is doing something bad, and most people will agree. If her nudes get disseminated for free nobody will have sympathy for her.

It's how bureaucracies often respond, though.

It really isn't that hard to find news stories about dads beating up their daughter's boyfriends for perceived transgressions.

I mean, I wouldn't be happy if nude pictures of me were being widely disseminated.

It's the monroe doctrine. Basically the US is the hegemon in the western hemisphere, and Cuba is the sole allowed exception. Venezuela had this coming a long time.

No, as long as the USA wins very fast and we don't have to fight a counterinsurgency/civil war, we're pretty happy with it. We don't want anything that will lead to a draft(yes I know objectively the US would lose WWIII rather than imposing one, but the core red tribe still expects to be conscripted if America can't raise enough troops voluntarily). Maduro needed to go.

Venezuela was repeatedly threatening to invade its neighbors over the objections of the local regional powers(they'd been given knock-it-off notices by both left and right controlled governments in the USA and Brazil). Invading Venezuela and getting rid of Maduro is broadly popular among the rest of Latin America on 'this is what we have a hegemon for' grounds.

I mean, this was the country which managed to sink its own ship while attempting to detain a cruise ship for no particular reason.

That sounds right. I think anselm was a fake name he used once.
After googling, yep, that was it.

It was something generic like ‘a boy’s life’ or ‘this boy’s life’ or something by an Anselm Wolfe or wolf.

I keep seeing this ‘what to do’ take, but an angle that just gets left out most of the time is this- statistically, most of the young women not having children are in long term cohabiting relationships, and we know transforming those into marriages leads to higher fertility. Convincing cohabiting couples to marry is probably both cheaper and more effective than convincing unselected women to have kids/more kids.

I mean teachers pay is politically radioactive in the US and doctors are roughly as sympathetic.

The US has local party committees. You can get involved by going to your precinct convention, in person, and voting in the party election. These precinct elections are very poorly attended and so you can probably win a ticket to your county convention. It helps if you’ve previously volunteered with an advocacy org and block walked in the primary- you need both of these to get an invite to young republicans, which is a social club and not a political org, but it’s not necessary just to vote in party elections(and literally ‘showing up in person on a random Tuesday in the late evening’ is the only bar to clear for that).

The events are, literally, social events to network/build camaraderie among people who are already politically involved. You earn an invitation, you don’t request one.
You want an in for young republicans? Go join a pro-life protest a couple times, then volunteer for the campaign of your local further-right Republican in the primary- look for state legislator candidates with a GOA or taxpayer-friendly endorsement. You’ll get an invite.

Getting invited, personally, to go door to door isn’t hard, though- just hang around where young politically engaged conservatives are.

As a religious guy, his best in would be the local pro life movement. Go join a group that protests or holds prayer vigils and go from there.

Revenge porn laws create some, don’t they?

I mean at the end of the day it is difficult to reliably tell teenaged from adult women, and so I suspect most major AI’s will simply not allow you to turn pictures pornographic. There will almost certainly be laws creating strict liability for AI’s and even nonconsensual nude images of an adult woman aren’t going to go over well.
Now don’t get me wrong, I don’t think AI erotica is going away. But just like YouTube doesn’t want hardcore porn on it, chatgpt and grok will eventually get much stricter about erotica, and there will likely be separate, much less pg-13, AI’s.

Houston, Texas, piloted a ‘gold card’ system before the state made them stop because it was covering illegals, where preventative care and EMTALA treatments were covered by the government when given to people who weren’t going to pay any amount anyways. Eventually, healthcare systems will get this nationally as a bailout for themselves. The old will still be on Medicare, the health sharing orgs will keep growing, and the poor will just have shitty non-emergency care.

The young republicans recruits individuals involved in conservative politics already(pro-life movement, block walking, etc). It does not take randos interested off the streets; it’s a social club for young people who are already politically active.
The one near me hosts events, they just don’t advertise to the public.

I know the hypothesis that you’re a government official trying to get commentary from the big brains is ridiculous, but posts like this make it awfully tempting.
Call her a slut, like you’re already doing.
Look, I may not approve of sex work but I totally acknowledge you can’t get rid of it. Women being harlots in 1900 had few legal consequences then either.
