Need to petition Visa, MasterCard, PayPal, and American Express. I don't think trying to get Valve to reverse these recent changes will necessarily be effective, since they are being pressured by the payment processors and they definitely aren't going to risk not being able to effectively do business at all.
Yeah, nah.
Petition these people:

Collective Shout is sustained by a small number of Australian partners. These are not big groups, and would quickly pull funding under any sort of pressure.
Collective Shout has a deep history with Christofascism and TERFs, so highlighting those angles is the way to go to get them pariahed. Once CS is out of the picture, we can work on undoing the damage they did.
Petitioning people to do something that is against their entire purpose doesn't seem like it would be effective.
Not only that, they'll get louder claiming they're being oppressed. Ignore them.
Go on about being harassed and doing “high risk work”
