Visa and mastercard pressured steam to take out some sex games featuring rape and incest off their library the last few days.
https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2025/07/steam-cracks-down-on-some-sex-games-to-appease-payment-processors/Gamers are unhappy, it's a "first they came for the rapists and I said nothing" moment for them, they can't quite grasp how a wholesome megacorp promoting gambling like steam folded against the evil payment processors and are afraid for free speech and LGBT games.
All the liberals from leftoids to capital g Gamers are deeply unhappy, who knew it would take deplatforming some truly awful degenerate games to mend the gap left by gamergate….
They targeted gamers.
Gamers.
We're a group of people who will sit for hours, days, even weeks on end performing some of the hardest, most mentally demanding tasks. Over, and over, and over all for nothing more than a little digital token saying we did.
We'll punish our selfs doing things others would consider torture, because we think it's fun.
We'll spend most if not all of our free time min maxing the stats of a fictional character all to draw out a single extra point of damage per second.
Many of us have made careers out of doing just these things: slogging through the grind, all day, the same quests over and over, hundreds of times to the point where we know evety little detail such that some have attained such gamer nirvana that they can literally play these games blindfolded.
Do these people have any idea how many controllers have been smashed, systems over heated, disks and carts destroyed 8n frustration? All to latter be referred to as bragging rights?
These people honestly think this is a battle they can win? They take our media? We're already building a new one without them. They take our devs? Gamers aren't shy about throwing their money else where, or even making the games our selves. They think calling us racist, mysoginistic, rape apologists is going to change us? We've been called worse things by prepubescent 10 year olds with a shitty head set. They picked a fight against a group that's already grown desensitized to their strategies and methods. Who enjoy the battle of attrition they've threatened us with. Who take it as a challange when they tell us we no longer matter. Our obsession with proving we can after being told we can't is so deeply ingrained from years of dealing with big brothers/sisters and friends laughing at how pathetic we used to be that proving you people wrong has become a very real need; a honed reflex.
Gamers are competative, hard core, by nature. We love a challange. The worst thing you did in all of this was to challange us. You're not special, you're not original, you're not the first; this is just another boss fight.

>>43525Evangelicals completed their total and absolute domination of the US with Project 2025. The United States is now basically a theocracy and Trump is here for life.
https://www.latintimes.com/mike-johnson-says-men-need-stop-playing-video-games-all-day-get-work-theyre-draining-580534I think you should know the Trump administration/Evangelicals opinion on video games and pornographic content at this point and now they're getting serious. And yes, they're hypocrites and pedophiles goons, nothing new under the sun.
>>43506Apparently that group pressuring payment processors to try to prevent LGBTs from using it and prevent furries from getting payments for their commissions and banning furry and LGBT games from Steam is a group called “Collective Shout”; a fundamentalist Christian Group masquerading as a Women's Rights group, to try to push their puritian BS. There are other groups pressuring banks to close accounts for anything in adult industry or for any sexual expression. They use deceptive names as cover.
The National Center on Sexual Exploitation (Formerly known as "Morality in Media" )
Exodus Cry - (they got to Mastercard)
International Centre on Sexual Exploitation
Fight the New Drug (FTND)
These are 100% fronts for Christian nationalists who want the eradication of queer and positive environments.
And also keep in mind that this same organization (Collective Shout) defended a member who turned out to be a pedophile.
>>43530>Evangelicals completed their total and absolute domination of the US with Project 2025. The United States is now basically a theocracy and Trump is here for life.No He isn't. All you need to do is basically break away from the USA or call out these Evangelicals for being pedos themselves.
Every accusation by a conservative or a Fundamentalist is a confession of guilt.
When a group that says they are against “sexual exploitation”, “sex trafficking”, “protecting women” but wants to ban porn, sexual education, abortion rights and LGBTQ material; that's a huge red flag of far right conservative christian fuck face fascist group. call em out for what they are.
