so many people are lending a hand to fascists when they police each other on "acceptable" nsfw content and get too scared to stand up for sw'ers and artists when the worst thay could happen to them is get called problematic by other puritans
There has been a noticeable reticence in left and liberal circles to voice full-throated support for pornography, even as it's become increasingly clear what the open end goals of the censorship movement are
In a lot of ways other leftists chose this path folks. They shrugged and didn’t care when Patreon banned a ton of hypnosis and TF creators, or when YouTube started their ASMR crackdown. Now it’s coming for queer porn creators, more and more. Who will stand up?

If you're a member of a creator's Patreon or a creator yourself, let's email Patreon and ask them if they'll explore processor options beyond PayPal and Stripe. We want to restore our creative freedom.
Paypal and Stripe hit Patreon with strict nsfw regulations a few years ago. It's the same thing that's happening with Steam and itch and if itch can seek new processors that are more nsfw-friendly, I think Patreon should too to support its creators

Spoke with an anon source who had an interesting insight into Visa policy. Per a convo with their bank on the Steam/itchio situation today, Visa put new restrictions into place due to a new "government policy." The exact phrase used by Visa.

It's like a virus. If they put out a statement at 2 weeks and we stop, then the next time they censor even more, we'll have to call 4 weeks to get them to even make a statement.
The fight won't be easier to win a year from now. We just have to be relentless, we can't give them a recovery period.

![I can describe an axe entering a human skull in great explicit detail and no one will blink twice at it. I provide a similar description, just as detailed, of a penis entering a vagina, and I get letters about it and people swearing off. To my mind this is kind of frustrating, it's madness. Ultimately, in the history of [the] world, penises entering vaginas have given a lot of people a lot of pleasure; axes entering skulls, well, not so much.

It really is now or never. Both paypros and government are making the big push to effectively kill the internet. We might be talking about porn now but porn is step one in a process that moves blindingly fast
*Why is so much censorship bullshit happening all at once?"
Because this is The-Push. They've been tightening the screws for years now to the point the internet is now passively more censored than daytime tv from 30 years ago, and now they're trying to do one last push to snuff out free speech
