I don't think it's just a matter of personal responsibility; it's part of the socio-economic system, whoever controls the capital can force others depending on it to do things they don't want to. In this case PP/MC/Visa forcing itch.io.
Right, that's why they CAN do it, but I'm talking about why they WANT to do it. Basically people have become so insanely over saturated with porn in their own lives, we've literally just had to endure an entire decade of perverts making their own politics about almost nothing other than their sexual perversions.
So really, either man the fuck up and actually prove to people that those who choose to live as you do aren't less than worthless shit disturbers, or recognize that you have a problem and give it up. You can choose which one.
I don't see why I'd have to prove anything to some random payment providers. Their job is to handle my payment for any legal purpose, not to morally judge me because some conservative organization from the other side of the world told them to.
And that attitude is exactly why the progressive movement is collapsing around you. I'm not talking about what you personally are into, I'm talking about the entitlement of assholes who are so perverted that they think they are OWED the delivery of pornography tailored to their tastes through public spaces.
People are entitled to equality in service. Porn is no more illegal then alcohol. If you can go to a grocery store and buy a bottle of whiskey on credit, then why should porn be treated any different?
Dude. Kids aren't being delivered alcohol.
Get a fucking grip.
Dude. Stores have age restrictions. If they lie and steal their parents card... thats a parental issue.
You really can't be honest at all about the MASSIVE difference in access, can you?
Try and take your hand out of your pants before you reply again.
Personally i have no interest in such content. I simple do not wish to have corpations making decisions for us peasants without going throigh the proper democratic process.
And there isnt much difference, in fact nothing stops people from buying alcohol online.
Literally not one honest bone exists in your body, huh?
How am I being dishonest? Please explain.
That's up to government regulations and something that people can vote on - not something the payment processor can suddenly control and block
The reason why PP/MC/Visa "want" to do this has zero to do with "porn saturation" or whatever. It's basically "brand management"; they're seeing servicing sites with specific types of adult content as "brand damage", so they pressure those sites to not do it. That's it; if they believed the opposite they'd gladly force itch io to show a dick in the front page.
In turn, the reason Collective Shout is pressuring PP/MC/Visa through "brand damage" mostly boils down to conservative babble. Check this, regarding the group's founder and take your own conclusions.
Hm... Looks to me like you're making excuses for a group of crazy anti-LGBTQ evangelicals who are using lies and slander to police the world based on your own flawed morality.
You think Visa is run by crazy evangelicals?
What the fuck are you even talking about? I cant tell if youre defending this shit, or having some weird view where you think youre against it. Either way, eww.
This person is also a racist. Not worth talking to.
That's not why they want to do the it. They want to do it because money and power.
They meaning everybody.
