According to an affidavit written by a DPS special agent, Ozment allegedly called the Governor’s Office on the afternoon of July 25. DPS claims Ozment left the following voicemail (KXAN has redacted the profanity in the transcript provided by DPS):
“I don’t know which one of you sons of b—-es passed this motherf—ing bill to get this damn s— blocking my motherf—ing anime, but you whole a– motherf—ers need to unpass this s—. Y’all are f—ing ridiculous with your b—- a–es. My Google account says I’m f—ing over the age of 18, and your dumba– is passing these dumba– laws. I’m a f—ing stab every godd— one of you b—-es. Unlock my f—ing anime.”
“Man thinks threatening politicians is more effective than using a vpn”
The average person has no idea what a VPN even is.
Really!? But I know about VPNs
He’s apparently under 40 and capable of navigating the Internet. Very strange that he wouldn’t at least bother to look it up online or something. Presumably he had to find the phone number he called so he seems capable of finding information. It really isn’t that hard to set up a free VPN if you’re literate and have Internet access. I’m someone who regularly defends people not using Linux because it’s confusing for them, so I feel like I’m not being overly demanding here or anything. I’m pretty sure Firefox has a free one built in now. So, it might’ve been as easy as downloading Firefox and clicking a button. I’m not sure because I don’t use Firefox like that, but still.
You’re vastly overestimating the benefit of youth in computing these days. It was more of a Gen X / Millennial phenomenon because computers were widespread but difficult to use. Like car guys in the preceding generations.
Going forward, there will be as many young people good at computers as there are young people good at cars. Not many, but enough to keep computer science moving forward.
He’s in his 30s. I said under 40 because I didn’t remember the exact age, but I am not attempting to suggest the iPad generation knows about computers. For what it’s worth, even someone bad at computers because they grew up on iPads could likely figure out how to get access.
These privileged assholes who think getting things through official channels will work and is the best solution if only they just scream about their feelings (which they inform me facts don’t care about) loud enough.
Its like they’re children.
I bet he’s a straight-line Republican voter, too. And just cannot comprehend how the policies he voted for could ever affect him – it was only supposed to hurt other people!
Yeah, you need to first damage them, then threat of additional damage to them and their immediate families will work.
Because using a VPN removes the burden of actually telling your representatives that they passed a shitty bill.
They know what they did and do not care
They’ll care if they get stabbed!
We really need to teach the general public about Tor.
…or maybe not because that could cause governments to become a lot more interested in attempting to block or limit it too… :(
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.

Oppai decensored wholesome gyaru be like

they sent a powet
More like for the feint of heart.
GoddamnGosh-diddly this is goldThis right here is exactly why I haven’t blocked .ml
Yes the mods over there can be twats, and yes there are militant shitbirds with asinine opinions (let’s be honest, every instance has them). And then you get a post like this…
<_< your above commenter is from .world bruv
The entire thread is.
flips through the script
I’m seeing the parent of this comment thread as jdr@lemmy.ml.
I’m on sync, so maybe it’s an app issue? Or maybe you’re blocking .ml and can only see the OP that jdr replied to? Dunno.
Fedi gonna fedi, I see it now.
:faints:
I’m pretty unflappabe, but consider me over easy
Please put that in a spoiler! My son read that and now he’s sporting a mohawk and calling his mother and I the b word! We don’t want him saying that kind of language except on special occasions like when God allows us to eat pancakes (Lent). Now I have to explain cookies to him. Thanks a lot, maybe think of the fucking children next time.
He was swearing so much it almost turned into morsecode.
we need a copy of the actual recording
Here I am, wondering which anime it was. Probably Taimanin Asagi
Bet it was some
Loliconpedobait shit.Ranma 1/2.
Those who would give up essential anime to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither anime nor safety. - Benjamin Franklin, probably.
If you can’t watch me at my futanari, you don’t deserve me at my ecchi.
Ben Franklin’s Congressional Hentai Collection is a foundational part of US history
Ben Franklin of all people, would absolutely be down for that shit.
Wasn’t a MILF enthusiast too?
Definitely based dude.
dude was a women-of-all-kinds enthusiast from what I can tell. published a recipe for abortion too. https://www.npr.org/2022/05/18/1099542962/abortion-ben-franklin-roe-wade-supreme-court-leak
Lincoln’s Yuri Archives are still open to the public, and thank God and Sweet Baby Jesus for that.
Not to be seconded by the Founding Mothers’ BL Library.
The most requested part is his Night Shift Nurses set
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.
Alternate translation:
I’m a fucking stab every goddamn one of you bakas.
Believe it!
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?
I for one have been training a neural network using pirated content for years. It’s an in credibly efficient large language model that runs off very little power and fits comfortably in the space between my ears.
Exactly correct. Training material.
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.
Yeah the supreme court only decided free press applies to adult porn access in the late 20th century
That’s still anime.
FYI - it’s because he specifically said that he was going to stab them. That’s a very real threat and actionable, most people have access to knives.
Now saying you’re going to cut their heads off with a guillotine? That’s protected by free speech, and you’d 100% be able to argue that in court because I guarantee you don’t have a guillotine or know how to build one (hopefully, maybe you do - in that case do not say this).
Who the hell doesn’t know how to build a guillotine? It’s a knife hanging from a rope with guides on the sides. If you wanted to make a nice artsy one, you could just have one guided side.
I should have said ‘know how and have the means to do so’.
A guillotine also isn’t something you can just take into a court room and start killing people with - it’s not a weapon in the traditional sense.
Texas allows you to open carry a sword.
It’s not about protecting people from harm, but sin.
I’m not surprised given Texas’s reputation. Big hats, big trucks, “don’t mess with Texas”… yeah how about I just skip Texas entirely next time I visit the States. I hear some parts of it are nice, though, but hot isn’t my thing.
Carrying a sword openly sounds awesome in theory but terrible in practice.
I have to go to Texas to complete a bucket list of mine (Visit all the national parks in the US) and I’m trying to figure out how I can do it without spending any money there… Pack in my own fuel, food, supplies, stay at free campgrounds or on public land. I don’t want to spend a cent in Texas when I go.
Counterpoint: I’ve heard Whataburger is worth the money. It’s also a Texas-based business, I believe. Never tried it, myself. Not sure if I would or not.
It’s not about protecting anyone, it’s about surveillance and an ability to blackmail/threaten anyone who steps out of line.
he did nothing wrong but i guarantee you that guy voted for texas republicans the last 20 years.
Well first of all, he’s 35. So 20 years is impossible.
Second of all, he threatened to stab them.
Finally he’s from Houston, which is historically blue.
So it’s a maybe is what you’re saying…
As if democrats weren’t doing the same thing. It’s a uniparty. The difference is the same as pokémon red and blue, you get to choose the color of the package and which monster you get.
But the Democrats are obviously better; they have Meowth and so can’t get softlocked by running out of money.
An understandable and perhaps even restrained reaction.
That censoring of his voicemail transcript in text is art.
FUCK.
This shit is so hard to read when it’s text-bleeped.
WTF is “godd—”?
Ah, american priscillas and oh noes dey insulting dem santa claus dude on the cross.
God-dammed
Gyatt’s dad, God
It had to be anime, jesus christ
President comancho will save us.
