If you realize the candle is fire then the frog was boiled a long time ago
Please, trump is just the lighting rod for your rage at a system that is in the final stages of being taken over by economic forces. He's the finger puppet on the hand of the general elite. Just because he's a moron doesn't mean he's not your equivalent of a WWE heel.
I don't even see how it's a scandal anymore. They've shoved so much other bs down our throats. I'm two weeks this will be gone too. He'll we KNEW this for ages. The first time he ran we knew this. It's doesn't matter. People have attention spans of gold fish. It's some Soviet era mind control shit. I'm just tired.
Does it stop me from using foreign entities? Because if not and it's a must have I'll poor my equity somewhere else.
What else is on? I'm tired of Jerry Springer white trash theatrics we call governance.
They act puritan to help facilitate business in more restricted cultures like China or Vietnam. Allowing everything that is allowed in the most liberal countries wouldn't loose them their marketshare in those countries. Disallowing it though, that opens those foreign markets with minimal negative effect to their processing volume. How many people are going to blame visa for this? Most will just blame Steam who is just conforming to the standards the processors set.
Just a shot in the dark here, but maybe they aren't accounting for code switching between different apps on your phone and that is skewing your prediction algorithm. You're phone is guess at what word you're typing based on everything you've ever typed and not just what you text in the messenger app.
Because we have a little thing called 'tact'
I didn't come here to have that argument. Things as they are, you can search for lolicon in most corporate owned search engines and be told about csam being illegal. It is what it is and I used that as the basis for my argument not your feelings on...what, thought crime?
God forbid I pin the actual reason for the complaint that is effecting you and explain why.
We know the FBI and CIA both have done work that had them funding sex work to "bring down" powerful people. We won't get a list because Epstien was part of some kind of carrot-stick style blackmail system. Look at who he rubbed elbows with. I don't know what government or group he worked for but his clients were likely just marks. He was just a pimp. His clients, tools.
They don't have money. They have debt and stock. Their money is a whole other tier of pretend that we're too poor to have access to.
There is a lot of talk dancing around the issue here. This isn't an American thing or a Puritan thing. This is purely a capitalism thing. They have been doing this for years. Do you think lolicon got forced off of every major platform for moral reasons? It breaks laws in various counties that the web hosts and payment processors operate in. Wincest porn, CNC porn, Zoo Porn, NSFL stuff. It's all illegal somewhere. These companies are chasing profits. Those niche topics mentioned above lock them out of expanding into some places. Like China. They don't give a fuck about the ethics of the content. They care that they're loosing money by not being able to conduct business in those markets. They care that hosting it makes them a target and possible have to deal with law enforment of some country, fines, or vigilante style attacks on their network. You'll loose your little family harem video game. They don't care. They're making billions processing the main narket. It's capitalism and the global economy that's making your platforms more conservative.
"It's just good business." It pisses me off.
Yeah, processors and web hosts both play a huge role in policing content. The beasiality and lolicon websites haven't been disappearing for the last 15 years because moral awakening. It's been the web hosts shutting down websites because they violate some local law and it interfered with there profits.
They've been pulling this shit for years. It's just been to stuff you agree with. You think the zoo porn just and drawn CSAM just disappeared from the big platforms and search engines because it was the right thing to do? Nah it was the processors and ad agencies. Pressure from capital. People just didn't care then because they agreed with it.
Yeah man, that's where we are. It will likely go worse but that's the thing people need to do. Can't suggest it. Can't organize it. Patriot act and what not. But that's the type of pressure that needs applied.
So here's the rub. I agree with you but rules are not universal. They don't give a shit about the money they're making now they see the countries whose markets they can't enter because of various laws and get pissed. So we get held to the most restricted standards that will allow them the most business. It's bs. Basically since they want to do hypothetical business in like... Vietnam, we have to loose our smut.
This has been a thing for at least ten years now. Credit card and money processor companies have policied content for ages. That's why it's hard in some ways to pay for porn. They fucking strong arm and moralize. To be fair I only have like one game on steam that's smut but since it was snow days I'm betting it will be removed.
Not from marvel. From history. And very American. If you know you know. Black Panthers were good people.
