The org that had payment processors bully Steam are now using their influence to have articles about their behavior pulled down. Keep in mind one of the major goals of this org is to have major games like GTA V and Detroit Become Human pulled.
This is extremely video games related and we deserve to have a thread about it on /v/.

Wow, Collective Shout has that kind of influence/power? Making platform holders remove games is one thing but the fact that articles talking about what they're doing are also getting deleted is another...

They really are a danger to adult games and games with fan service.

Dude stfu, no-one is willing to do anything about it so why even bother.

im so tired of this jewery

>>715972754 (OP)
Who the fuck are these people and who is funding them? This is highly inorganic

Collective Shout has support from powerful people because they both want this kind of content banned. They themselves are feminists who want it gone because muh sexualization and all that shit, while their poweful supporters are conservatives who want it gone because it's "degenerate content".

No shit? This is why people need to care about this instead of posting an image of the shit games removed and going LUL THING OF VALUE WAS LOST. If you give these faggots an inch they will take a mile and they will keep at it until eventually they get to something that the LUL people care about but by then it will be to late

https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/senate-bill/401
https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/987
CALL AND EMAIL YOUR SENATORS AND CONGRESSMEN
STOP CORPORATIONS FROM RAPING YOUR LIFE
>(1) IN GENERAL.—To provide fair access to financial services, a covered bank, including a subsidiary of a covered bank,
>shall, except as necessary to comply with another provision of law—
>(A) make each financial service the covered bank offers available to all persons in the geographic market served by the covered bank on proportionally equal terms;
>(B) not deny any person a financial service the covered bank offers unless the denial is justified by such quantified and documented failure of the person to meet quantitative,
>impartial risk-based standards established in advance by the covered bank;
>(C) not deny, in coordination with or at the request of others, any person a financial service the covered bank offers; and


>(D) when denying any person financial services the covered bank offers,

Call your senators, a single letter from them caused this much change, so can a single phone call from you.

2nd paragraph in OP's article

LITERALLY all Gabe had to do was disable VisaMaster and PayPal purchases on Steam and just have it be Steam cards only. And then point the finger at the processors.
This would be VERY temporary. A month at most. Processors would buckle at the huge negative PR. Gabe is a bajillionaire and could take the 0.001% hit and doesn't have shareholders to answer to.
He could fucking go down in history as the saviour of video games.

This is crazy to me. You couldn't get past the first step of stopping games from getting fucked and you expect to stop the final boss of jewery...the payment processor. Do you actually think the army will somehow have more weight when your president gave a free pass to an insane man to play "Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego" with a so called nuclear program? Get the fuck outta here

>>715974565

Reminder republicans (and some demonrats) are already getting deplatformed because of their politics, they already hold a grudge against payment processors and are the ones mainly backing this bill, with enough support and raising enough of a fuss it WILL pass.
You already won once just now with SKG, you can do it again.

Yeah, and Joe Biden was a catholic. Many religious people were leftoids and even commies. The other ""conservative"" orgs that support this company are small potato shit. for instance, NCOSE only had a budget of 5million last year.

>>715974565
This is just meant to apply to ‘deplatformed’ people. You can bet Collective Shout and their backers will worm their way into the bill to add an exception for games and porn if there’s not one already

>>715974456
Republicans were the biggest group (not the only group, but definitely at the forefront) going after games first in the 90s and into the 00s along with other media too. In fact one of the biggest reasons that era was so edgy in general was in direct response to all of it.

They're pro life, anti trans, think miniskirts and lip gloss should be banned, have lobbied against only fans and written erotica like 50 shades, dunno how you'd describe this group as left wing at all

>>715974487
you are a newfag.
20 years ago we were in a decades old struggle with retarded helicopter mothers of a Christian background that decried things as being of the devil.
in the 80's, 40 years ago, if you were gaming with dice you were "doing witchcraft and demon summoning/worship"

Its the same old enemy, just wearing a different political skin than you are used to seeing.
The same meddling tyrannical idealism.

>>715975706
>retarded helicopter mothers of a Christian background
That also probably votes democrat? And believes trans-rights? Idk what you're trying to say. Joe Biden was also a catholic, and the pope is pro-trans, pro refugee, and anti-trump, Christianity today seems very left wing.

Billions of dollars, the culture war, the election etc

>Payment processors and their supporters are all faggots that hate things they don't understand or like and they will do everything they can to fuck with people who don't agree with them.
This isn't a surprise to me but what is a surprise to me is why not every major country on earth have made their own (digital) payment processing system since they already need parts of one to handle taxation anyway.
If they did this then they could just tell Visa, Master card, etc to kick rocks and then both the gubbernment and the retarded masses could vote on what they want to allow past their own borders instead of having some literal who middlemen jew(s) dictate it for them.

>>715973626

It's funnier this way

>>715976016
Collective shouts's founder was also an adviser for several years to Senator Brian Harradine -
He was socially conservative, reflecting his Catholic values.[12] He opposed abortion,[12] embryonic stem cell research,[13] same-sex marriage, and pornography.[13] He secured a ministerial veto on importation of the abortifacient RU486, and a prohibition on Australian overseas aid financing family planning that included abortion advice.[6]

"DA LEFT" didn't do any of that, though. Just some publishers "updating" their catalogue. And none of those are scouring the libraries for old editions and destroying bad-wrong-books. Like certain other entitites. But you already knew thst, didn't you? If truth is on your side, why lie?

>>715976378
The left have been preventing people for political views from selling books on amazon and other online/physical retail stores. Effectively hurting their chances to advertise or make a living off their writing.

>>715976506
There's been a pretty consistent "you can't upload things like that anymore" trend and it's 90% fueled by no one wanting to be the one to stick their neck out over yucky material.

Probably we need a trump-like figure with strong personality and a brash "fuck you, you can't take it" stance, but that's only going to happen once people have been pushed to a brink, I feel.

Neither of those are right wing positions I particularly care for, I am more than willing to sarcifice a mid term session for congressional gridlock if it means we can make zionism and pedophila a losing position.

I fully support Collective Shout. If porn and video games were all banned maybe "men" would start being men again.
