Blamed for Steam games ban, Mastercard encourages censorship during Riot Games VCT livestreams

Why do payment processors have the ability to control morality in our world? Easily the definition of a monopoly. Absolutely insane.
-
If it was about money, MasterVisa would have already given up. There are people who claim that MasterVisa bent the knee to Collective Shout for the sake of money, yet when a much bigger demographic speaks, MasterVisa tries to ignore it.
This is about the power to shape society.
The fact that multi-millionaires are doing to most heinous shit with their money and getting a way with it, meanwhile me, a wage slave, has a payment processor telling me what I'm allowed to do with my money, society is built on tiers.

That wouldn't make any meaningful impact. They still get the processing fees from the vendor.
But they're much on fees cheaper than non-debit MasterCard and Visas?

NFTs are highly regarded.
I'm going to take the day to reflect on how 100.0% out of touch I must be. I've been using crypto for more years than I'll admit, been reading tech news, and talking about it with other real engineers at work. Never once did I hear anything about anyone ever regarding NFTs highly.
That's because NFTs were a scam that has long since dried up.

What about everyone buy a share of thier stock. Then sue thier board for ignoring thier fiduciary duty to the shareholders. Turning down business is bad for revenue... and the games that got removed probably made decent money all together.

Uh. No.
Do you seriously think Australia is a big enough player for mastercard and visa to kowtow despite building pressure planetwide? We're fucking small potatoes and we've always known it.
Payment processors own upper echelons are full of weird religious fundamentalists, and that's where a lot of this is coming from. Don't give collective shout any credit, very few people in Australia even knew who the fuck they were before they started claiming shit. They're the online version of that weird proselytiser outside st paul's.
(And if you think Conroy is a tie, lemme describe in detail how much people want to barbecue that idiot...)
Fair enough, though them being stupid greedy bastards is also an element to the why in such a situation. Regardless Visa and MasterCard need to pushed out of the financial system and forcibly dissolved.

did anyone mentioned that all these bans were all pushed by russel vought.

Credit cards should be illegal they are tools of Molloch and everyone loses at least a little from their usage.
Credit card payment charges should be itemized on the bill of any purchase and also rewards should be considered taxable income over 1000$/yearYou do understand that since vendors are not allowed
on risk of credit excommunication, pass the transaction fee to the vendor
It forces the vendor to put that fee in the base price.
Everyone pays the transaction fee
But what if you pay debit ?
you don't even get cashback rewards
but you STILL pay that increased price,
On everything you buy
everyone without a credit card still pays a 3% taxCredit cards are profoundly immoral
-
I have seen it mentioned quite a few times on websites. Can you actually pay normal shops using that?
I'm afraid it's not expanded to many countries just yet
-
FedNow became a thing just two years ago. With transaction fees of just $0.043/transaction, it's cheaper than every other payment processor out there. Hopefully it can gain adoption and push out Visa/Mastercard.
What prevents them from getting bigger and doing the same thing. This cycle of sadomasochism needs to stop at the root cause.

I feel like we came to the same conclusions for very different reasons....
