I really think we should stop saying "kid-friendly" and start saying "ad-friendly". We shouldn't indulge these companies and their excuses anymore. I also think that continuing to pretend that this is about "protecting the children" pushes a lot of the blame onto kids and teens, who don't have the political power to push through any of this censorship legislature. Corporations and governments are to blame.
fuck em up gang
What gets me about the Mastercard/Visa shit is this:
You are at the grocery store. You pick up a nice, girthy zucchini. You head over to the oils and pick up a thing of olive oil. Then a packet of condoms.
Satisfied with your selections, you head to the cashier. As you place the items on the conveyor, a voice shouts: "DON'T SELL THOSE! THAT'S GOING UP A BUTT!"
And then for some reason, the cashier agrees. Then the guy who shouted, this fuckass guy in a suit, marches up to the counter and starts demanding that the store never sell any vegetables that could be put up a butt. He starts out pointing at the zucchinis and cucumbers and carrots, but you heard what he said: he's effectively banning every vegetable, just enforcing it selectively.
You ask the cashier if he's corporate or something. The cashier says no. The manager? No. He works here at least? No.
Who the fuck is he, then?
Well, the cashier explains, he's the bank manager from the next street over. He's taken up a moral crusade against vegetables that might go into rectums and if they don't obey him, he won't take anyone's paychecks or any money from any store that opposes him. And his bank is the only bank in the region, so it'd be a huge hassle for the business and the employees.
And somehow this dumb fucking scenario is real.
Cold take: Credit card companies should not have the unilateral power to decide what is or isn't acceptable art. Also fuck weirdo puritan terfs.
Art is based off this post
For the random terfs seeing this wondering which games I'm referring to, it's every single nsfw game on itch.io, putting tons of indie artists and game devs out of work.
anti sex work online is used as a wedge to expand the surveillance state and discrimination of LGBTQ art.
>Toranoana (doujin store) halts sale of certain works because of credit card companies
>MangaZ shuts down because payment processors blocked it
>Melonbooks no longer accepts use of VISA & Mastercard on online stores (because of censorship)
>DLsite starts to block countries from viewing certain content, no longer accepts VISA & Mastercard
>Payment processors block team payments for creators of adult games on Steam
>Now Surugaya has removed their online listings for adult games & doujin because of payment processors
Fucking hate these cretins, I swear.
This is a GREAT time to hop back on and call Mastercard + Visa customer lines and voice your displeasure (w kindness and firmness) about nsfw being censored. We're doing a Black Friday Week push.
Those who have been calling with us since the summer, you are beyond incredible. If you've taken a break, welcome back. It may have felt like you've been talking to a brick wall, but things have been happening behind the scenes so keep it up.
