Gamers Bombard Visa & MasterCard With Emails and Calls Over Steam and itch.io Censorship

Maybe you should call and stop pay with their services

I love how facts are just rendered to perspectives now.
It's a common tactic of fascists. If you point blank refuse to accept reality and just keep repeating the same lie over and over maybe people will believe it. Of course it doesn't really work. The people that were going to believe you already believe you, and the people who don't believe you, will never believe you. Sadly despite the fact that it doesn't work, they keep doing it.

It’s impressive how much people get riled up about not getting porn.
I don’t blame them but I also don’t see this as activism, I doubt anyone really spending the time on this cares about possible future censorship that others who are not them may face, they just want to buy their porn.I don't want Christians dictating what I can and cannot do.

I'm sorry that your story version of me is letting you down. I'm not really sure what I can do about it though.

is there any EU law that prohibits this itch/steam situation and the mastercard email contact information?

Getting downvoted for wanting people to advocate for better living conditions, way to go .world!
It's amazing that you posted this after having a fairly good explanation as to why it's not a good idea to conflate too many things together.
If you string too many things to a cause you dilute all of them. Especially because MasterCard and Visa have nothing to do with what's happening in Palestine so linking the two causes together just weakens both of them.

you can probably use the tts tools from hume.ai
I think the limiting factor would be getting your number blocked. Maybe someone could get a bunch of VoIP numbers?

Christian fundamentalist activists are persistent and organized, and it's effective. I think it's bad how a small minority is able to dictate the lives of other people and I like how people get riled up because I hope it will remind the people in charge of those large corporations that catering to extremists is a bad decision.TLDR: Idgaf about the games, I just hate it when religious zealots dictate the lives of others.EDIT: I might have been wrong about "Collective Shout" and didn't look into it enough before forming an opinion.
EDIT 2: Yeah, I don't think "Incest Daughters BDSM" deserves saving. They seem to be primarily targeting rape and incest games, and I can definitely understand that you want to see rape games gone from if you're an organisation like this. Article
However, I still don't know how accurate their own article is, I might check out more sources/perspectives when I have time. -

but Maeve said to call the senators about these, not mastercard. and you don't need to call them about all of these topics at once either.

That is true, these are perspectives. Nobody knows the truth, only a projection if it upon their world.
It's just that by that they are claiming that it's their perspective which decides what will happen.
In other words, they are saying "so whatcha gonna do".

Considering that "chemicals" is such a loaded word now with ignorant and dangerous people like RFK Jr in positions of power, maybe get specific.

Given the reactions at Thanksgiving, I think some may be antimatter
I hate to break it to you, but antimatter is just extra spicy chemicals

Imagine if they cared this much about the Epstein files…
Well considering GOP reps are getting 500:1 call ratio on the Epstein files people DO care this much.
It’s possible to care about multiple things at once.

But it does work.
If they keep you busy arguing about what's real they never have to discuss actions or resolutions.

There's always a gap between "Someone should do something about this" and "I should do something about this".
Once that line gets crossed, plans like OP's post start.
It's somebody else's problem.

Couldn't you just buy it on GOG or something? Steam sucks anyway why expend the effort

I like the story but hate the fact it's all in separate tweets.
Here's the summarized version:
Be Polite.
Act as if you only understand 'the effects', have a nebulous notion of 'the cause'.
Act like you know little other than this, and insist they explain it to you like you are a five year old.
Waste as much of their time as possible, without becoming hotheaded, instead become sad-confused.
"I'm not so much angry, as I am disappointed" type of vibe / energy.
And if possible, be genuinely kind to the low level, actual people you talk to, they literally do not make the rules.

Hey now, why stop these people FROM CHANGING THE WORLD?! The stakes are too high gramps!

Corporations lie blatantly all the fucking time.
Its just that they lie in ways that usually are not able to be legally defined as some kind of a legally actionable version of a lie.
They are usually more worried with ever having outwardly admitting something that they could be sued over, than they are with any kind of human to human sense of accountability or believability.
Every, single, thing they are mass releasing or designing as an official stance has gone through some kind of legal team, or a team under a legal team that follow's guidelines from a legal team.
This is just how megacorps work.
They are not people, they are a sociopathic machine, operated by people who very much tend to be sociopaths.
