Guys, you really need to stand up to this shit.

This is over the top.

"If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle."

— Sun Tzu, "The Art of War"

Indeed. Remember what I said a few days ago, "when people shove their hostility for our ways and traditions in our faces, most of us quietly respond by spending our time, energy, and money elsewhere." It's the same reason why I offered you the whip some months back. When you encounter this sort of treachery, it must be measured and proportional to the act.

I already know the sellers and publishers of this smut will be quietly boycotted. I'd be more concerned if this media was available to be viewed online on children's websites, but most parents apply some scrutiny to the materials targeted at children and most my generation and younger are tech savvy enough to block those sites. None of this stuff will be selling, but their production and distribution will provide some reasonable cover for the movement and laundering of money.

There's a reason why leading US corporations, government, agencies, institutions, businesses, and those whom follow their example, are collapsing and dying. It's a trend I don't expect to end anytime soon, because the psychology of those leading the effort is profoundly mal-adapted to reality.

Don't have a reasonable answer for the uptick, nor have a spent any time in those states outside of backpacking/hiking.

Here's a hint.

For context, look throughout human history and you'll notice patterns stick out like a Christmas tree in a dark room. Every civil war started when the government, dominated by city dwelling foreigners installed into positions of authority, isolated from the consequences of their bad decisions, thought to force their tyranny upon rural populations who produce the bulk of their food. The fighting which would occur between them would unsurprisingly bring food production to an immediate stop, leading to the country's population starving, and then things only got more interesting for those in power as they come to realize, people who fear imminent death from starvation aren't going to fear instant death at the sword.
