Step 1: Ban porn.
Step 2: ???
Step 3: Profit
I think banning porn is in part about getting birthrates back up. They're scared of replacement. There's the morality crap they're tossing but the driving force is replacement theory and lost profit. They don't want to be like Japan.
I don't see how banning porn accomplishes this. Women are the gatekeepers who get to decide whether or not a baby gets born and as a population grows wealthier and more educated the women tend to have less kids. Has very little to do with porn which is mostly watched by men.
The solution to not being like Japan is immigration. That's why our population isn't declining every year like Japan. Without current level of immigration, our population would be decreasing every year and we would be like Japan.
I agree with you. This administration does not. I mentioned replacement theory in my comment. Thats why imigration wouldn't work. They dont see it as an option. They also are working on a national ban on abortion. Ultimately they see us all as cattle, but to get the population up? Women would be more so. Think legislation that makes divorce almost impossible. Tax breaks for 'traditional' families. (especially those that have multiple kids). MAJOR propaganda to push people to have children. Imagine that upcoming Facebook AI army all telling you how great being a parent is. Deeper discrimination in the workforce.
As for banning porn, it makes people more horny. More than that banning, porn also could ban many sexual education resources available online. Maybe the regulate birth control OR make it only accessible through insurance. Nasty work. Hundreds of dollars for your birth control that you need to regulate your periods because you don't have insurance.
Rather than finding porn horny people go out and try to have sex. More sex means more kids. Add to that the removal of those educational resources I mentioned and now you have teens who don't know any better having sex and getting pregnant. Funny how Trump is about to attack the department of education. What kids would have learned in school is lost to budget cuts and just over welmed and new biased teachers. Oh and rest assured their will be new teachers. Passionate volunteers I'm sure, to help teach your kids to be little monsters for God.
All this starts with heavier regulation on porn. It might not be a full ban, but it could be an effective ban. You wouldn't be able to search it, many sights wouldn't host it, and accessing it would require ID (and probably payment ti help support the infrastructure that would require).
