You can't do that in Ohio. It's not possible to do it in that state.

Apparently it is recognized as a catchphrase all over social media platforms, and often accompanied with animated scary videos in TikTok, I wonder what does this state have in general (i.e. traditional/ideological viewpoints, etc.) to be applied in these kind of memes?

It's not possible to do it in that state, but saying "can't even" instead of "can't" adds the meaning that it's surprising, e.g, not only can't you X (Something not so surprising to be forbidden), you can't even X in Ohio (Something that is surprising to be forbidden.)

@fliegenklatsche Sorry, that I'm not aware of at all. Be aware my earlier answer didn't reflect any of that context.

In popular culture, Ohio is a boring place where you can't do interesting things.
