It was only a matter of time. Well now what are we waiting for ? Let’s go after the easy target, CollectiveShout & end them & then use the example to “convince” payment processors to back off while simultaneously constructing alternatives

The Article dosn’t bring up anything the Austraians have done SO FAR to remove LGBTQI+ content from steam. Is there a creditable source for that?

If these were EU corporations, they'd be sued into oblivion by consumer protection agencies

GoG is European right? They’ll probably try to go after them too.

And if not, GoG may become the main haven for non-approved content.

lath,

Depends. The Polish government has its share of religious nuts. If they get courted on this, Gog may end up forced to comply.

Is gog Polish? If not, they could just pull the old corpo move of pulling out of markets they can’t operate in without doing it their way

Aceticon,

GoG has A TON of payment processors available to buyers, at least in Europe.

I know because I checked it yesterday following all this shit about payment processors pressuring game stores to stop carrying NSFW games, as I intend to start using a different payment processor as the one I usually use (as it turns out, one of those alternative payment processors is already integrated in the banking app of one of my bank accounts).

And here we go… the inevitable conclusion. If you deviate from a fundamentalist ideal of the norm then your existence is pornographic by its very nature.

SHOCKER.

Fucking fundamentalists

It starts with porn, and ends with anti-church content. Everything in between must go.

FartMaster69,

Haha, it doesn’t end there it just keeps going.

I have zero faith this campaign will stop until we’re back in the stone age.

Future headline:

“Game vendors pressured to stop selling games where women are allowed to vote or express an opinion that doesn’t reflect her husband’s”

Somehow, they’re forgetting that sex sells like hot cakes. They’re also not passing up the opportunity to marginalize minorities even further!

If I can’t have my lgbtq+ and nsfw games, then I don’t need my non-lgbtq+ and nsfw games. Go ahead and play this game and fuck around and find out. I’ll sell all of my consoles real quick. Fuck this mess.
