Important to note that Donna Rice Hughes, who runs the child safety advocacy group Enough is Enough, has been gunning for Teen Vogue for years, circulating petitions and publicly condemning sex-positive articles. She's been pressuring Condé Nast to shut down Teen Vogue for at least five years.
Hughes is a major political figure in the US, who rallied and consulted on the digital safety acts to protect children, leading to heavier censorship, moderation, and now ID verification on the internet in some states.
Enough is Enough claims to be secular and non-partisan, but their programs include faith-based initiatives, and Hughes publicly endorsed Trump on the organization's website.
