No it isn't. These are the first steps towards declaring queer existence to be pornographic, and then banning queer content from every platform entirely. I'm sorry if this comes off as harsh, but I am so fucking tired of seeing this take from people who should know better. Please think a few more steps ahead as to what this actually means and what their real goals are. Reactionaries consistently wield payment processors like a club to deplatform anything they don't like. They've been doing this for basically decades at this point. To see hexbears going "haha silly gamers losing their titty slop games" without a single thought as to why this is happening or considering that this may just be the opening moves towards a larger goal, has been fucking maddening.
Editing to add some context: The Christofascists behind this have always seemed queer existence to be inherently sexual. Just take a look at their rhetoric surrounding the litany of book bans that have happened throughout US schools. This is just another prong in their """save the children""" (read: erase queer people from public existence) crusade.
Also, in a lot of ways, the war on porn is even worse than the war on drugs, since drugs have an actual medical definition, whereas no one can agree on what porn is. The most famous definition is "you know it when you see it".
every Sears catalog with underwear models is porn
