The adult entertainment industry has thrown its weight behind Kamala Harris, the Democratic vice-presidential candidate, with a $100,000 advertising campaign.
The industry fears that a second term for President Donald Trump could result in a severe clampdown on its operations.
According to The Post Millennial, the campaign, dubbed "hands off my porn," will be featured on adult content websites in seven key battleground states, including Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, and Nevada. The campaign's central message is that conservatives are on a mission to outlaw pornography and incarcerate those involved in its production.
The campaign is primarily targeting young male voters, a demographic known for its high consumption of adult content. Data from the Survey Centre on American Life indicates that 44 percent of men aged 18-29 and 57 percent of men aged 30-49 had viewed pornography in the past month.
The campaign's website boldly asserts that conservatives are striving to "criminalize porn." Director Casey Calvert, in a statement on the site, warns against what she describes as an "ultra-conservative agenda" rooted in religious conservatism, fearmongering, and the suppression of women's rights. "Dont let these zealots destroy my career and your right to enjoy adult entertainment," she urges.
Holly Randall, a veteran actor in the industry, also voiced her concerns. "I have been in this industry for over 25 years and have witnessed many attacks on our industry, but Project 2025s ban on pornography is the most extreme proposal I have ever seen, and voters have to take that threat seriously," she said.
Randall further emphasized the importance of not taking the legality of consuming pornography for granted, despite its long-standing legal status.
President Trump, the Republican nominee, has repeatedly stated that he has no knowledge of Project 2025, the initiative that the adult industry fears could lead to a ban on pornography.
