Visa and Mastercard are coming for FAIRIES and CAT EARS, and broadly FANTASY. They want everything. Everyone has to start calling and yelling or we lose everything. Call book publishers, call Visa and MC customer lines. I don't have a lot more to say

Edit: I called Visa and they refused to give me an answer when I politely asked about these specific policies, refused to pass me a supervisor. I got hung up on after several minutes of going in circles. Should have been a simple exchange if this is nothing to worry about.

so anyway i came across this bsky post sure would be a shame if people did exactly that, wink wink and such :3

stop payment processors from censorship by calling them and expressing your distaste & discontent with their restrictions on not only adult content but also queer art - show proof of call and peg or get pegged by a big buff woman

(more information and links in replies!)

[fubblers]

Queerness and gender/sexual nonconformity are often targeted during crackdowns on lewd or obscene behavior. Your nonsexual queer art is not exempt from right wing censorship simply because it is nonsexual. To the right, deviation from cishet society is inherently sexual.

If you have heard about the issue with itch, steam, and payment processors and want to do something, now you can!

Part 2 of a Strip for Stripe ! Share your experience/proof of contacting a payment processor in the reblogs or a comment to earn points (must be made in the next 48 hours to count!) I'm including last post's overage and we're only 3 points away. You can do it!

Scripts at yellat.money and stop-paypros.neocities.org

TheGamer.com actually did a well-researched article on the ongoing problem of payment processors clamping down on anything they consider risky content. That includes anything porn, anything BDSM, anything hypno, and soon, anything GTA.

... and they had to censor the word "anti-pornography" in their own news article because they were afraid the using the word "pornography" would get them demonetized by Google AdSense.

If this is where we're at, we need a new term for porn, the same way that everyone on Youtube is using "unalived" to avoid being demonetized.

Anyone got suggestions?
