Supreme Court's ruling practically wipes out free speech for sex writing online

There was a NYT article a couple weeks ago about Chinese morality police doing mass arrests of erotica authors,

But you'd *expect* that of the PRC; the US, wow, has it ever fallen fast and fallen hard.

Why is it everyone else's responsibility to keep it out of the hands of 10 year olds by being 24/7 surveilled by the government, instead of the parents' responsibility to regulate internet access for their 10-year old?

Not that gay erotica seems that harmful, even for a 10 year old. They probably don't seek it out as much as you thing they do. If they do, it is probably a beneficial step in their development given what they learn about themselves in a safer environment than the probable alternative.

Because it takes a village. Because I am my brother's keeper. Because as a society we have a responsibility to help and protect one another.
