Really feels like we’re seeing the return of 90s/00s era “Christian parents against obscene media” bullshit. Except this time they don’t get laughed at and ignored, they are in control.
Whether its this or social media algorithms forcing people to censor simple words like “kill” and “fuck”, culture is being completely sanitised by the corporate world and to some extent with government backing (depending on country).
Depictions and even mentions of violence, sex, drugs, and the use of swear words are being targeted. It’s completely regressive.
The absolute low of this for me is that I’ve noticed people censoring the word ‘porn’. You’re obscuring the word that describes the already censored thing, why censor the word itself? It’s not even a swear word (which to me don’t make much sense in censoring in the first place)
We have to remove the Christians from power and refuse to give them moral authority over us, formally or otherwise. We can’t let them oppress us any longer
I’m pretty unimpressed seeing christians embrace metal while they reignite the satanic panic
When I run a social media site, it will be a rule to use uncensored terms, and any use of asterisks or alt-words like “unalive” will result in a warning or suspension.
Hopefully this will result in more people hosting their own games.
Those Collective Shout assholes show that petitions work. Now we have to petition to make it safe for NSFW games to be allowed to sell their product.
This censorship means more censorship is coming, we must fight back against this
This is going to hurt indie devs who have little budget for their games.
there is a lesson in this, never trust corporations or you will get ruined by them eventually. Either we learn to survive without them or just silently go into the night.
