Can we not overlook that this was activist driven. Looks like this Collective Shout is only a 40,000 person organization. 40,000 people just broke content access for millions. Over a game that had already been pulled from the platform without their intervention.

Not even that.

Collective Shout later wrote that 1,067 individuals called and emailed payment processors as part of this campaign.

How the fuck can these goddamn censors achieve so much with just this much, while stop killing games has hundreds of thousands, if not millions of supporters and can barely get companies to do the minimum?

Just fucking anything worth doing needs overwhelming support, these dickheads can get it done with just over one thousand people. It's a fucking joke.

Yeah, this is incest and rape, incest and rape bad. wow, hot take. It's not about that, how fucking little effort do these dickheads need compared to how much fucking effort is needed to actually achieve something meaningful in this life.

These pricks are only doing it to try to limit speech instead of doing something to "protect the vulnerable".

I'm sure they won't finish there, and won't rest until porn in general is outlawed.
