It's mostly incest games, but the thing about the slippery slope fallacy is it's not a fallacy when they have a stated intention to keep pushing.

Fuck religious people who don’t mind their own business.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

The only way to fight this is to show you're spending more money than those idiots no? Would be fun if Steam and Itch.io made some numbers public to shut down those prudes.

[-] [email protected] 26 points 2 days ago

It's really awesome when a group from a foreign country and a foreign religion gets a dictate how I as an American I'm allowed to purchase legal products in my nation.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

I don't like it either and they're from my country. I also don't like when America exports its bullshit either, mind you.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

It's really awesome when the whole world has to stop using master / slave nomenclature because one country has ugly past.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

That's a really weird off-topic hill to die on

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

And also ignorant and outright stupid? Like only America had slaves or participated in the Triangle Trade, lmao.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 21 hours ago

Honestly I just wanted to call them out for being shitty in a way that might bite without putting effort into it, because trolls be trollin

  1. not just one country. 2) this is different because no one actually made anyone do that. That I know of, no company was going around threatening to cancel services if other companies didn't stop using the term, and certainly no one large and critical. A social pressure to change a word is different from a financial pressure to remove a product.
[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

Uhhhhh…you need to read a history book. Like literally any history book would help you.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I am not talking about the slavery but about the nomenclature. Only one country had a problem with its use in technology and we all had to change.

Shouldn't porn games be preferred to actual porn? Less risk of women being sexually exploited when making software?

[-] [email protected] 40 points 3 days ago

They don't actually care about that. Stop humoring their excuses. They're just prudes.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 2 days ago

True. The group pressuring the payment companies were originally a christian group. They can indeed be very prude

[-] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago

Their co-founder likes Cuties

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Yeah it's important to note that being prudish is almost as much as a smoke screen as being feminist (almost I'm sure they are actually puritans as well); their actual goal is to shut down discussion of abuse against women and children. They want to end anything that might empower them to say no, or prompt the discussion that does so. Otherwise they wouldn't try to get once human pulled from steam for it's depiction of domestic abuse.

not all porn has women in it..

[-] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago
[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

why did you ignore it then?

[-] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

Please explain to me how I ignored it? This is Twitter style of "you said you like pancakes? That means you hate waffles!"

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

You argued that real porn is bad because of exploitation of women, but there's so much porn out there where that simply isn't true. An obvious example would be gay (male) porn where no women are present.

Not that I disagree that there isn't a huge problem of exploitation of women, or staggering amounts of reinforcement of bullshit gender roles, or countless other problems. But, genuinely, not all porn is bad.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Hah, i like how you did the thing they just mentioned, in the first sentence no less and then for the entire rest of the reply.

Classic trolling, 5 stars, no notes.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Fair enough. I imagine that it's typically women who get exploited the most but men aren't exluded

[-] [email protected] 37 points 3 days ago

Nothing good is allowed to happen ever again.

Transcriptnickyflowers: It would be cool if websites let you be an adult on them. The advertisers and payment processors need everything to be Family Friendly though their definitions of family and friendly are absolutely fucked. But since they're in charge of the Internet now, no one is allowed to be an adult. TikTokers say things like "unalive" and "seggs" because they know death and sex are too adult for online. Online is for idiot babies only now because they're easier to market to.

nickyflowers: Oh I'm sorry you're a trans adult? Super ban. You are super banned for life. You have upset Visa's feelings. Mastercard is throwing up in the corner. How could you do this to Google Ads?

I don't play porn games.. but fuck america

[-] [email protected] 38 points 3 days ago

Supposedly the organization pressuring the payment companies are actually Australian, but it's mostly a fuck hypocritical Christians moment.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 3 days ago

Fair.

Imma leave that fuck america out there anyways though 🙂

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

Apparently they're a feminist organization not a Christian one

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

They're a conservative Christian organization.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Christianity is inherently anti-feminist. It’s right there in the book they bash so much.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

I thought I read it was both, but either way it's good not to assume it's always American. The whole world is problematic at times.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago

Great way to make people start pirating games again. Just like movies and series saw a huge rise is pirating recently.

Its almost as if pissing people off has the opposite effect of what you want it.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Itch.io is how independent games are funded, not just distributed.

If you pirate what few NSFW games exist, you’re not likely to see any more, even on even more niche platforms.
