>Republican Senator Paula Hawkins holds up a poster of rock group Def Leppard's album Pyromania during Senate PMRC hearings in July 1985 concerning obscenity in popular music. The Florida Senator, who had a history of controversial statements and also admitted to being a victim of sexual abuse as a child, was defeated for reelection the following year by Florida governor Bob Graham in a landslide.
>>16881143Good. Thanks to people like her I went from being class president, chess club captain, and founder of the middle school programmers club, to getting expelled for having Porno for Pyros and White Zombie CDs in my backpack.
so she was the 80s Marjorie Taylor-Green, right?
imagine trying to be a badass scary rocker in the 80s and legitimately praising satan onstage and trying to get some attention and then this bitch gets up to fight obscene music and it's Def Leppard
>>16881163I kind of starting to like her now.
Paula Hawkins was a flake who got elected to the Senate because in 1980 it was hard to be a Republican and not be elected, but when she had to run for reelection six years later she was run out of office on a rail.
>>16881440oh hey, nice legs
>>16881163Based Paula Hawkins ruining 4channers' lives
>>16881465People like her were ruining my life before this site even existed, and likely before you were born. It is a miracle that I have a home and a family of my own with the shit that fundamentalists put me through as a kid, and I've never even been a liberal to begin with. I simply went through an adolescent phase like every other person on the planet, where I drank, listened to dumb music, and fucked dumb girls. None of those are sins, and none of those things should be regulated in any way, shape, or form, by people who you do not know and will never meet.
on Youtube you can look up any 80s metal video and the comment sections will have a lot of harmless middle aged boomers talking about the time they saw Dokken opening for AC/DC in '84. none of them became serial killers or sex fiends or anything.
>>16881544You're right but Richard Ramirez was an admitted heavy metal fan so the PMRCfags were like "See? See? Look what metal does to people!" although I suppose nobody ever made an issue out of how Jeffrey Dahmer liked 50s-60s vocal pop or claimed Neil Sedaka drove him to kill.
>>168814401986 was a Democrat year but of the eight Republican Senators to lose their reelection bid Hawkins suffered the worst defeat--Florida governor Bob Graham beat her 55% to 45%.
>>16881143Freaking Mormons I swear (yes she was a Mormon)
I find it a lot more tryhard that she blatantly stole Nancy Reagan's look.
>>16881143did this dumb skank vote for the National Minimum Drinking Age Act? she'd better not have.
>>16881143
>nobody at PMRC hearings mentions the actual edgy underground stuff of the time>focuses on harmless major label normie rock
although she seemed paranoid at the time, she wasn't wrong, the generation raised on this mass media slop sold by nefarious corporations would be brainwashed to support far-left policies, open borders, transsexualism, feminist hysteria, race hysteria and so on, they made America what it is today and people like Hawkins were trying to stop it
>>16882700That literally has nothing to do with anything any more than you can blame the golden rule for trannies and feminism. I swear, /pol/ is an online lobotomy.
>DEFF LEOPARD SUCKS!
Sneed
>>16881143These women were right about everything, music is evil
>>16881456That is a disturbingly short skirt.
>watching Unsolved Mysteries>segment about a man and woman being murdered in their car in the middle of the night during sex>man was married, and much older than her>he and his wife had $100k life insurance policies on each other>the girl had complained to friends about some guy stalking her in the weeks before the murders>but they played Magic the Gathering, so clearly the murder was a Satanic rituallol boomers
>>16881524Actually they’re all sins and you’re gonna burn in hell lolsperg
>>16882714is it really far fetched that mass media brainwashing might influence society, do you think one day, for no reason at all, everyone just up and decided to support "trannies and feminism"I'd rather have mormons in control over the media than jews
>>16885804>>16882700Take your meds
it's really funny how the cattle deeply seethe as soon as their media slop is threatened kek
>tells you at a live congressional hearing that all of your wife's politics are derived from you not fucking her well enoughhow do you respond without sounding mad?
>>16886076>le slop memeEbin
>>16885804Right, replace one group of elitists with another, more zealot group of elites who'd happily kill you under the pretense of doing God a favor if you broke any of their laws or out them. Either way, they both suck and there's a reason an entire state ran them into Utah.
>>16881143This kind of person is why people hate Christians.
>>16886068>NOO THE MEDIA CAN'T MANIPULATE PEOPLE, YOU'RE CRAZY>>16886128>spielMormons just want to reinstate the Hay's code and trade values, and I'm with them on this. They are not 80% of media executives despite being 2% of the population and pushing their bizarre "trannies and feminism" decades long social engineering scheme. They are not the same.
>>16886139This kind of person is why people hate Jews.
>>16886175>brings up Jews for no reason in a thread about how Christian politicians were chimping out over Def Leppardit's evening in India saar
>>16886182Jews owned the corporations brainwashing kids to worship mass media and pop culture and "rebel" against their parents. It is funny how you hate the Christians trying to stop them yet don't hate Jews who rape kids, is all.And you think I'm the crazy one.
>>16886160>>16886128Mormons are also like 80% of glowies. They are heavily overrepresented at Federal agencies so they cannot be trusted.
>>16886175Why is whataboutism such a common argument for Christians and Muslims? You can make the most mild criticism of them and they instantly start screeching about Jews.
>>16886229You are the crazy one since we're talking about heavy metal music in the 80s.Senators going up against heavy metal music made it look cool and made them a laughingstock in a lot of people's eyes.
>>16886160The media brainwashing machine is used for drumming up public support for war, not making people horny.
>>16881433>>16881399>>16881440>>16881681>>16881748>>16881793>>16881143She's not wrong and Margie Taylor green is not wrong either. When you have a media that promotes homosexuality promiscuity debauchery and abnormal Lifestyles along with degenerate consumerism you have things like mass murder serial killers rampant crime immorality and turning away from God. That's what project 2025 is supposed to fix and that is what project 2025 is going to do and that is to make us become a Christian Nation again something like that Ronald Reagan was trying to do in the 1980s and we need to go back to those roots to respect God and to respect the country and respect a country that was founded on Christian values and founded on what Jesus Christ wants us to do and that is to serve him and love him and listening to Trashy metal music violent video games homosexuality debauchery free love abortion sex and other behaviors all need to go and be banned for good. The left feared this woman just as the left fears Margie Taylor green and Donald Trump today.
>>16886529you're right anon we need to embody conservative values like jacking off a guy we barely know in the middle of a theater
>>16886529America was never a Christian Nation lol. There is no Established Church and the very early Treaty of Tripoli explicitly rejects such.
>>16886585What Redditoids told you to make you feel bad lol. Okay. Another person who thinks American Cucktianity is better if we just bend over and take it in the ass instead of standing up for America and for God. We are a Christian nation but Cucktians fake ass Christians will lead you to believe that America is not a Christian nation or we are not founded on Christian values and Christian beliefs.
>>16886529>and Margie Taylor green is not wrong eithernon sequitor a bit, but idk if you ever saw her high school yearbook photo. she was hot.
>>16886599America isn't a Christian Nation; America was founded on freedom of religion because the Founders knew that having an Established Church would just lead to shitty sectarian wars like they had fled Europe to get away from.What "Christian values"? Lutheran? Catholic? The Founding Fathers were mostly Deists anyhow.
>>16886529Christian nationalism and Project 2025 had nothing to do with Christianity and everything to do with Zionism. Basically boomers are terrified that zoomers and millennials were protesting for Palestine in such large numbers and support for Israel has been declining in general among young people. So the new plan is to indoctrinate children into loving Israel and Zionism under the guise of "Judeo-Christian" values.
>>16886712As they should. Israel is god's chosen people and god's country along with America. I just want young people to get to heaven and instead of going to hell for supporting HAMAS and terrorism and hating this great country. Boomers are going to save this country from socialism.
MEDS : NOT TAKENMEDS MEDS MEDS MEEEEEEDDSSSSSS MEDS MEDS MEDS MEDS MEDS
>>16886622Each state was allowed to impose any religion/laws on its constituents. Many states banned Atheism and certain books for example.
>>16886728Israel was 12 tribes. 10 of which were carried to Syria (2 Kings 18:11) and Medes in Iran. Those are the majority, not jews.
>>16886712Yet another reason to despise them. >>16886728Pull the plug on all boomers' life support systems for the prosperity of the US.
>>16885559>everything i can't do is a sin that will send you to hell but i'm definitely not a sperg
>>16886339It's especially galling given their shared jewish heritage. Like a pedophile deflecting blame because his brother also molests kids.
bump
Moral panics suck, no matter who they come from. Even if there is a legitimate problem, mass hysteria only makes things worse.
>>16886529>and we need to go back to those roots to respect GodYou eat pork so you definitely doesn't respect God...
>>16887728Yeah except here in reality there was no Established Church. Jews were in public office, and Amish/Mennonites were oppressed.
>>16881163I had similar experiences growing up. Where I grew up, people got suspended from school regularly for band T-shirts,chains,belts,etc. Basically,if you so much as tried to be cool,the adults would be all on your ass, teachers, parents, grandparents,etc. After all,rock and roll is dangerous!
>>16881143Remember that Jack Thompson got his start in all of this obscenity bullshit and was the main guy going against 2 Live Crew.
>>16882667I'm almost certain she wanted the entire genre banned instead of just thr actually obscene stuff. Similar to how they claimed disco was sinful because it promoted lust
>>16886728false flag
>>16886529The GOP in the 80s was full of pederasts. The conservative image was a facade. Research the Franklin Scandal
>>16882700Any more buzzwords you want to throw in there Adolfo Hitlerio?
>>16891624I've come to see "porno" culture and Evangelical culture as riding in the same car. They are opposites but one doesn't exist without the other, like they both depend on each other while existing in a field of tension. It's like there's no moderation. There's depravity but then you ask for forgiveness from God and go to church.
>>16891748meds
>>16881163you sound based but is that really true?
>>16891748It's simpler than that. Both the "christian conservative" and a hardcore SJW are exactly the same psychological type. They just play for opposing teams. Both are advocates of tyranny and lead to dystopian societies. It's utterly pointless to argue over which dystopia is "less bad" because it's still a dystopia. They're all freaks.
>>16881143The 80s were great
>>16881544these same boomers spent their lives voting to turn America into what it is today, they are not harmless merely because they are not serial killers
>>16892065Yes. I'm old, and it sucked. Had to finish high school at a public school. Public schools are fucking garbage, and it only gave me access to opportunities for far greater delinquency.
>>16892132If they were 80s metalhead kids they were Gen Xers not boomers. lol.
>>16881793I bet Joe Biden did.
>>16891604Banning disco could have saved us from modern degeneracy
>deebly goncerned about kids becoming degenerates because rock music>invents the fucking internet What did Dimocraps mean by this?
