Stripe has absolutely zero problems doing payment processing for the racists on givesendgo tho…
Or defending Israel’s genocide of Palestinians…
It’s a shit company and if they say they’re doing anything because of “morals” it’s a reminder that some people’s morals are shit
In 2010, Collison co-founded Stripe, which in 2011 received investment of $2 million including from PayPal co-founders Elon Musk and Peter Thiel, and venture capital firms Sequoia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, and SV Angel.

Correct.
It’s (techno)fascists all the way down.
Racism, genocide, violence… that’s ok. but god forbid adults have consentual sex or consume consentual content made by adults
Fuck kickstarter
And the payment processors
And the christians forcing their delusional thinking upon the masses.
This is the real problem. The payment processors wouldn’t give a shit if it wasn’t for a very vocal minority of batshit religious busy-bodies.
Nah, corporate monopolies are the real issue here. If it wasn’t christofascists it’d be a different group targeting something else.
We should stop tolerating Christianity is this is how it’s gonna behave
Where is the source of liability that is making payment processors so adverse to adult content? You’re never going to convince me it’s a morality thing, they only care about the money. So where is the added risk/cost in processing adult content?
It’s pressure from a Christian Fascist Australian group called “Collective Shout”. They were the people behind itch.io and Steam being forced to purge things too.
No offense to Australia, but is the Australian market big enough for them to really care?
They’re a front group, not the main force
They’re the ones making the push, but the fact is this is the result of payment processor monopolies.
As monopolies they should have the power to say fuck you to fascists.
Maybe they don’t have issue with banning it.
Also, while we’re here, I’d like to share this:

Oh, and also:

It’s backed by all the fascists.
Monopolies are inherently intertwined with fascism.
They’re captured by the Christian agenda
Every time I use my country’s own payment processor (Pix), I do so with a smile knowing that VISA/Mastercard wont get a dime
I keep asking why the US doesn’t have a federally controlled payment processor. Well, I know why, but one can dream I guess.
If the US had a federally controlled payment processor they’d just end up with Republicans trying to limit what it could be used for. No porn, no abortions, etc.
Brazil has a stronger democracy than the USA now
