Those who would give up essential anime to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither anime nor safety. - Benjamin Franklin, probably.

Uncensored, not for the faint of heart;

"I don't know which one of you sons of buttermilk passed this mother-flapjacking bill to get this dang snickerdoodle blocking my mother-flapjacking anime, but you whole entire fudgemuffins need to unpass this snickerdoodle. Y'all are frickle-fracking ridiculous with your buttermilk gravy-boats. My Google account says I'm frickle-fracking over the age of 18, and your dumb-bumpkin is passing these dumb-bumpkin laws. I'm a frickle-fracking stab every gosh-diddly one of you buttermilks. Unlock my frickle-fracking anime.

"Man thinks threatening politicians is more effective than using a vpn"

Goddamn, the bleeps make that annoying to read. My best guess:

“I don’t know which one of you sons of bitches passed this motherfucking bill to get this damn shit blocking my motherfucking anime, but you whole ass motherfuckers need to unpass this shit. Y’all are fucking ridiculous with your bitch-asses. My Google account says I’m fucking over the age of 18, and your dumbass is passing these dumbass laws. I’m a fucking stab every goddamn one of you bitches. Unlock my fucking anime.”

Not sure that the first "s--"= shit, but, whatever.

He was swearing so much it almost turned into morsecode.

To those who didn't read TFA: he wasn't talking about anime like Boku no Hero Academia or Dragon Ball Z. He was talking about hentai.

The article confirms that Crunchyroll and a couple other anime streamers are available in Texas.

The guy was trying to access PornHub (or a site like it) to watch hentai, and that site simply blocks all Texans (and people from other countries and US states that have similar laws).

As for those asking if it's illegal: the US constitution does enshrine the freedom of speech, or rather, your government's inability to pass laws restricting said freedom. However, there are still exceptions. You still can't make threats to officials, or other things that can harm others.

he did nothing wrong but i guarantee you that guy voted for texas republicans the last 20 years.

FUCK.

This shit is so hard to read when it's text-bleeped.

Did he break an actual law?

Just pirate it.

I mean, the Supreme Court just legalized copying. Millions of rare and one-of-a-kind books are being bodily destroyed just so they can be scanned in, which is pretty much the same thing.

If AI companies can steal content without repercussions, why not you?

Somewhat valid, I hate having to switch between 8 different vpn tunnels to access a reddit thread

“Oi, Governer-san, nandayo? Anta baka??”

That censoring of his voicemail transcript in text is art.

What's his Lemmy instance?

we need a copy of the actual recording

It had to be anime, jesus christ

An understandable and perhaps even restrained reaction.
