You do know that it's illegal to be a socialist and hold any kind of government job in the United States? Brother we are in that country right now. But let's keep hearing you bitch about China.
Haters will say it's fake: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communist_Control_Act_of_1954
Brother, that is still the laws on the books. Age does not matter. Do you really not understand that? Do you think laws expire? Did you choose to not understand? What's your deal? You live inside your own nightmare.
Yes, but also note that it hasn't been recinded, and our current Supreme Court has a soft spot for digging up forgotten legislation.
Fair point that it hasn't been rescinded, but I'm struggling to find any convictions based on this law or citations of this law ever being used in court, so it really does not seem relevant nowadays. If anyone can dig up any and reference them here, I'll gladly edit this comment to reflect that information.
There are laws from 1700s that haven't been rescinded but also bear no relevance to the modern day. California just changed old legal language stating that marriage was defined as being between a man and woman, but gay marriage has been legal for a long time now.
