Kind of like how Republicans wamt to police your sexual partners. Pretty sad in this day of age. Who cares how people spend money and what they spend it on.
If you’re so concerned about kids, launch a parental education campaign. Or age verify with the card.
If you’re a parent, you shouldn’t be attaching your payment methods to kids’ accounts anyway. That’s financial suicide.
You don’t understand, I’m very concerned about the future for my child who I want to put no effort into raising. Why would I parent my kid when I can just have everything I don’t want them exposed to banned? I’m a responsible parent who’s definitely not just trying to enforce draconian puritanical standards I don’t follow on everyone else.
Hands crying kid iPad so they can watch weirdly sexual AI videos of Elsa without stopping for 6 hours straight, because interacting with her is interrupting me binge watching “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” which reminds me how puritanical I am
Won’t somebody please think of the children?!
Not like that!
Hmmm… That’s a pretty valid argument. Now, normally, I’m not a big fan of hitting kids. So that’s why I’m gonna hit you instead. Get over here, you little shit!
Funny part is that one of Jesus’s favorite disciplines was a prostitute. I don’t think Jesus was has as prudish as his followers are.
I get that it was a typo, and you meant to say “disciples”, but I like it better this way.
Like Jesus was studying for a career in sex work.
“Let he who is without sin cast the first stone…”
The time is now if you’re looking to start your own payment system
Why not GNU Taler?
The CEO stepped down and there is a new one in charge
Fuck you dollar jesus.
Just read about brazilian PIX system and I am baffled. Their gov bypassed payment companies all together and trump is really angry about it Lol. Epic
See, I’m no fan of Bitcoin. It’s pure speculation and hardly serves a purpose while burning down a rainforest for every transaction. Also the ledger makes things traceable, so it’s also a worse concept than cash.
This, however, is a good example of why the concept exists. We need a financial tool outside of the control of banks.
(Yada yada Ethereum and proof of stake.)
Okay, devils advocate time.
What is the correct way to ban rape and anime CSAM games from Steam?
Because I don’t buy “freedom” and “none of my business” as reasonable moral positions.
I think it’s justified to want to prevent people from normalizing extreme content publicly.
I think one of the greatest moral failings of modern society is the obsession with allowing companies, rich folk, and the deranged to build systems and communities of harm because society should always be neutral for some reason.
I do agree that payment systems shouldn’t be the ultimate arbiters of what’s permissible, and general sexual content is a normal part of what it means to be human. But we should have limits.
This conversation is completely dominated by people focusing on the “censorship.” As if we don’t justifiably ban snuff or actual films of these sorts of activities.
Please think of the children? Yes, and think of the women these sorts of norms harm. Sometimes you really should care.
This conversation is always completely without nuance, as if all censorship is objectively wrong. Sex games should be legal, unless they are absurdly harmful. And yes, I realize that line is sometimes hard to draw, but we absolutely should find it.
Failing to have a reasonable way to remove something you find genuinely immoral, and defaulting to this “trick” I think is a respectable action for someone who is trying to be ethical to take, even if I don’t completely agree with all her views.
