Official statement on Steam being pressured to remove offensive content

[rusty_shackleford]

I know, right? We shouldn't need feminists using financial institutions to strong arm sellers of video games just to get porn away from children.

They're making it so that no one can buy them, which is wrong. Payment processors should not be making decisions on who can use their services based on values of the people currently running the payment processors.



If Valve is allowing kids to buy adult games, this is a Valve problem. I'm not going to be a bucket-crab about this.

Have they considered putting their porn games on the storefront that's for porn games?
oh wait, they benefit from having their games advertised to children, nvm

Official statement on Steam being pressured to remove offensive content

Most of the things labeled "offensive content" aren't offensive at all.

You know this change was specifically about incest and rape porn, right?

Oh, right, I forgot, you play **** games. Carry on.

They've not advertising to children, they're advertising to eyeballs. Everyone's on Steam. Most people don't give a **** about gog (which also has porn games) or itch.io or some random developer's site.

Interestingly enough people under the age of 18 are considered a non-entity.

Fun fact about these feminist at Collective Shout, they tried to get Detroit: Become Human and GTAV banned saying that they are pornographic and promote violence against women and children.



Also a fun fact about Collective Shout, they defended the movie Cuties:

It's not like these people are personally responsible for it anyway; payment processors have had rules against incest and rape porn for a long time. I've been amused by stories of other, smaller-scale degenerates whining about being hit with this same thing before. Maybe they were looking the other way on Steam until pressed, but the rule already existed.

Is the "big win" that guys will play these games not on Steam, but on other platforms? These whores are absolutely deluded. Also, Valve is utterly disgusting for caving to them.

games featuring porn should require an ID to buy

you're so ******** you don't even understand how this happened

it's illegal in some jurisdictions to take money for pornographic material portraying illegal conduct

the payment processors would get banned or fined in those countries if they allowed it, so they have no choice but to accept it

so the payment processors then force Valve to stop offering such pornographic material, or otherwise, THEY wouldn't be able to offer any service to Valve

Valve needs to be able to receive money to function, so they have no choice but to accept it either

(contrast this to HQ getting deplatformed everywhere because I allow people to post naughty words)

This isn’t about protecting children, this is just a step towards VISA and Mastercard plus whoever is pushing them into doing this implementing a Social Credit System on the West. It is long since past time that these two’s stranglehold on the credit card market was broken.

Again the whole, ‘think of the children’ and ‘pornography bad’ are smokescreens, excuses for what this is really about - censorship and control by upjumped middlemen who need to be reminded of their place.

Stop using other people's money, it makes you beholden to them.

I do. It's an easy way to budget.

Personally I think if the biggest people against this are porn addicted ******** and ****** addicted sour cream enthusiasts it's probably a good thing.
Maybe they could lock access to the porn games behind a rigorous test like the Oblivion tutorial?

[RangerBoo]

Or, hear me out, this all is just a smokescreen to what is really going on. Collective Shout is just a shield. This is the powers that be testing the waters to what they can get away with. First it was silly, naughty porn games that nobody was going to miss. Next would have been more serious targets. Things like people protesting against the Gaza War or protesting against ***** surgeries for minors. They thought that by using a feminist group like Collective Shout as a shield they can justify weaponizing payment processor by appealing to emotional and moral outrage. In time they would have done the same to political dissidence that question the status quo. Especially question a certain of people who like to wear small hats.

On the other hand, payment processors have been enforcing this rule for more than a decade. They just didn't go after Steam for a long time because Steam was too big.

Is there any precedent for that like there is a long precedent of payment processors not wanting to be associated with hardcore and bizarre pornography like what happened with Patreon and tumblr?

Ninja'd by Stack essentially saying the same thing, bad alt!

PornHub operates at a loss. It's free porn! If you look at how they're being funded, you see that they are being funded by JP Morgan, Chase (the credit card company), Cornell University, etc. JP Morgan gave PornHub a cash injection of hundreds of millions of dollars to go around and buy up all of the porn companies in 2009. One guy owns all of the big porn companies, Pornhub and a bunch of others. There is a lot of paper trading going on behind the scenes that makes you think people are being paid a lot of money, but in reality is it very little. It's really just a paper trading organization/way to funnel money for banks and big corporations (like a Swiss bank). If these companies truly cared about preventing the ruination of women and the minds of men, then they wouldn't be funding pornhub and co.

Didn't even pornhub have to bend the knee, wipe most of it's videos, and comply with stricter uploading rules because payment processors didn't want to be associated with all the literal rape that was posted on the very poorly moderated platform?

They don't care about preventing the ruination (almost wrote urination lol) of women or the minds of men, they care about what is or isn't against the law in jurisdictions in which they operate

If they actually did care about preventing the ruination of women they would be against migrant rape gangs coming into Western Europe en-mass and having free reign on raping and terrorizing the young women of those countries and with the blessing of the liberal governments of those countries. But they don't and in fact support more rapey migrants coming into the West. When one remembers that all this is rooted in anti-whitism it all makes sense.

okay but what does this have to do with Steam?

[OnTilt]

I don't care about any of this except that porn is bad and I'm glad if there's less of it. Stop being gooners and find real censorship to complain about.

Also, the whole "If we let them censor porn games, they'll be censoring other stuff next!" is blatantly dumb. That ship left harbor somewhere between 2016-2019, at least. They've already proven that they can censor what they want, when they want, and if people complain they'll just censor that too.

Wasn't talking about Steam, was talking about payment processor. What I am trying to say is that Visa and Mastercard can't claim the moral high ground by using women and children as a shield when they are an NGO that supports more rapey migrants coming into the West. You are right when you say it is against against certain jurisdiction of certain countries for them allow their payment processors be used to buy hardcore porn. They should just say that instead of claiming the moral high ground when they have none.

[RangerBoo]

Off topic about the porn and **** but to show you all about how feminism, at its core, is just promoting the destruction of white European culture I bring you this gem.

They really aren't hiding it anymore. It is this mask off moment that is making people hate them despite the fact they would have gotten behind them when it came to banning porn.
