it's always "think of the children" until there's a gazillion dollar platform actually intended for children with a known child predator problem that the CEO calls "an opportunity" 🙃

it's insane to be online clutching your pearls at Diaper Sister Escapades 3 (let alone an art game like Horses) when someone built a machine for turning people's childhoods into shareholder value and they have a trillion dollars for it

Like there's a whole dialog with a character who says "well, I don't have any issues with political dissidents myself, but I'd rather not be branded as one" and if you can't see how topical that is I don't know what to tell you

Spoilers for Horses, but like... this is it. This is the game.

it's nobody i directly follow but it feels so common to see someone's response to someone being deplatformed or censored be "i don't see why this is such a big deal it's not like it's ICKY PORN or anything!" like. bro open your heart and mind and realize that censorship will ban anything given time

Your discomfort is not a morality call. You not liking something does not make those who do abusers. Until an actual person does actual harm to another actual living being there is no fucking abuse, and trying to insist harmless people are abusers when they aren't makes YOU the only abuser.

Honestly, Mortis sleeping through a whole day is what I strive to become.

That's a shame. When I saw a post about the negative reviews it was getting I was hoping it was just one of those games that was divisive but excellent for those it really clicked with
