    It's really awesome when a group from a foreign country and a foreign religion gets a dictate how I as an American I'm allowed to purchase legal products in my nation.

          Apparently they're a feminist organization not a Christian one

            Yeah it's important to note that being prudish is almost as much as a smoke screen as being feminist (almost I'm sure they are actually puritans as well); their actual goal is to shut down discussion of abuse against women and children. They want to end anything that might empower them to say no, or prompt the discussion that does so. Otherwise they wouldn't try to get once human pulled from steam for it's depiction of domestic abuse.

              1. not just one country. 2) this is different because no one actually made anyone do that. That I know of, no company was going around threatening to cancel services if other companies didn't stop using the term, and certainly no one large and critical. A social pressure to change a word is different from a financial pressure to remove a product.

                I don't like it either and they're from my country. I also don't like when America exports its bullshit either, mind you.

                      You argued that real porn is bad because of exploitation of women, but there's so much porn out there where that simply isn't true. An obvious example would be gay (male) porn where no women are present.

                      Not that I disagree that there isn't a huge problem of exploitation of women, or staggering amounts of reinforcement of bullshit gender roles, or countless other problems. But, genuinely, not all porn is bad.

                            Christianity is inherently anti-feminist. It’s right there in the book they bash so much.

                              I am not talking about the slavery but about the nomenclature. Only one country had a problem with its use in technology and we all had to change.

                                Hah, i like how you did the thing they just mentioned, in the first sentence no less and then for the entire rest of the reply.

                                Classic trolling, 5 stars, no notes.

                                  Great way to make people start pirating games again. Just like movies and series saw a huge rise is pirating recently.

                                  Its almost as if pissing people off has the opposite effect of what you want it.

                                  Itch.io is how independent games are funded, not just distributed.

                                  If you pirate what few NSFW games exist, you’re not likely to see any more, even on even more niche platforms.

                                        It's mostly incest games, but the thing about the slippery slope fallacy is it's not a fallacy when they have a stated intention to keep pushing.

                                          Fair enough. I imagine that it's typically women who get exploited the most but men aren't exluded
