Read: bigoted crybullies got the credit card duopoly to fuck us, and nothing on the internet is safe until they're stopped.

bigoted crybabies

Actually highly organized American religious organizations doing this shit. They've been organizing for a long time and with trump now have a clear path to try and make the entire world suffer under their needs

Fuck the American Taliban

Collective shout is Australian, in Taylor's Lakes Victoria

What do you mean "actually?" Religious creeps are most of that category.

Reminds me of: the venn diagram of religious creeps and bigots is a circle.

Collective Shout isn't a religious organization, they're a TERF one that basically blames porn for the existence of transpeople and has been trying to ban it from the internet entirely.

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 2 points 5 days ago

Yeah, so in other words, it's all pushed by the religious. Same shit

[–] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 2 points 5 days ago

They were originally a Christian organization that has rebranded into a TERF org.

Same shit, different coat of paint basically.

They got Andrew Tate off of Spotify, which is a win though...

I can understand if they're fighting human trafficking and such. But going after porn video games, which generally don't feature real people or generally glorify human trafficking etc., I'm not sure why this is part of their scope.

I could also see this group being against Donald "Grab 'em by the pussy" Trump.

I haven't seen the games that are getting targetted. I've heard it isn't all porn games. What's the criteria for removal?

The enemy of my enemy is not my friend

Andrew Tate is scum of the earth and Spotify should have dropped him, not the payment processors

Again: payment processors should and must not be the ones deciding what is okay and what is not. Just because they did something accidentally right doesn't make it a good thing

It wasn't the payment processors that got Andrew Tate off of Spotify, it was the actions of the activist group
