Censorship is bad simple as. It would be one thing if Steam decided on their own accord to not host those games but this is imposed on them, and it's not imposed on them by a parent company or by investors but by payment processors, a 3rd party. These games are not illegal, they aren't even particularly morally despicable, it's two companies that have a duopoly on transactions that want to play regulator and it should not be tolerated.
Furthermore, it sets a terrible precedent, now it's video games with subjectively questionable content but what comes next? Where do you draw the line? Give an inch they take a mile, it is understood that payment processors are allowed a duopoly because it simplifies things for everyone but in exchange they remain neutral, follow regulations and shut the fuck up. That contract is broken.
