time for an introduction!
I'm Hazy but you can also call me Dusk. I'm an artist who really loves to create stylized digital paintings of characters. I draw quite a bit of fan art, particularly video game fan art, but I also draw original characters! nice to meet you all!

Ive seen some posts like DCS says here, trying to draw a line between Horses [extremely bullshit] censorship and various more explicit games on Steam [with the implication being that THEY deserve it but not Horses]
Please. Those other "nasty" games are your ALLIES not your enemies.

Already seeing folks say, "Well, HORSES isn't YUCKY PORN like other games are, so..." which is super frustrating.
Now is NOT the time to be throwing the hentai games you happen not to like under the bus. Your rage should be directly at payment processors.

Corporations are relying on shame to stop folks from fighting to keep porn around. An amazing way to fight against this stuff is to simply not be ashamed of sex and sexuality; even if you think some of it is "cringe". You'll do yourself a favor by eliminating your shame about sex.
When you fight censorship, you're also fighting for things you might not exactly like and it's something you gotta get comfortable with. I promise you, the fetish game you turn your nose up at is NOT YOUR ENEMY. You must think of the bigger picture, you must not fall for the bait.

And if you’re an adult get your booster, you need one every 10 years. They called it the 100-day cough, you can struggle to take a breath for months.
After two infants died, the Louisiana Dept of Health under the leadership of the new incoming deputy director of the CDC, delayed notifying the public for months of a whooping cough outbreak. Instead, he ordered DOH to stop promoting vaccines. Pertussis is currently a national health crisis.
Louisiana officials waited months to warn public of whooping cough outbreak
After a whooping cough outbreak killed two infants, Louisiana health officials waited months to officially alert physicians or do public outreach. That's not the typical public health response.

Reminder that these processors have not yet backed down AT ALL on mass / arbitrary censorship of legal art / expression / transactions
Spoke to my source familiar with internal workings at Mastercard. The holiday call campaign re payment processor censorship is working, there is a lot of pressure being felt from your calls. This is resulting in increased response times at a core moment for Mastercard due to the holiday season

If you want artists to be able to choose to share their work cheaper or even for free, the thing you should be doing is advocating for things like universal healthcare, disability support, social safety nets and UBI. Stealing their work means that we're even less likely to even make it & share it.

So just to be clear, this game isn't allowed but the Infowars game is.
We can be flooded in slop that belongs in the pits of the Google Play store, but artsy indie games are where Valve draws the line.

Worth noting this was before the Payment Processor nonsense, so this is the normal dev-hating Valve actions. Same shit that dings VNs for years.

I know it's more about clogging their phone lines but I also feel like telling them their stupid policies might prevent (or HAVE prevented) you from getting certain Black Friday deals and that you feel forced to seek other payment methods MIGHT be a good angle for this point in time specifically

settle back into your marathon routine afterwards, but during Black Friday weekend, you SHOULD be sprinting if possible.

with Black Friday being this Friday the 28th, this is the time to maximize the impact we can have via call campaigns
If you plan to participate in this call campaign, imo you should heavily prioritize calling Visa/MC as heavily as possible between the 27th and the 1st of dec
