Honestly, I don't think that's the case. I think it's more by people who want to virtue signal. They get to talk about how they're "protecting the children" and their opponents (if they dare to oppose it) "don't want to protect the children." I don't believe many of them are doing it out of an actual desire to protect children, even a misguided one.
Oh that's definitely part of it. I also think this is an attempt to scrub the internet of any mention of women freedoms, contraception, abortion, LGBTQ+, etc.
