Roughly 6 months in and the US is already at the ‘full blown concentration camps’ stage.

Mastercard and visa have reported to a couple news outlets that they are currently being swamped with calls and complaints. Keep up the pressure and try to (politely) insist that you leave a complaint via phone instead of letting the rep direct you to emails. It's way easier to be overwhelmed by a much smaller number of calls so each one counts for a bit more!

anyway, I love adult content. I love erotic art having a space to exist online. I love seeing people making connections over creativity and shared hog cranking. I don’t love everything everyone is cranking their hogs too but it’s also none of my god damn business. fuck the evangelical rise of censorship. fuck ruining people’s livelihoods.

looking at any kind of trans supplies focused online shop is depressing because there will either be a complete absence of anything for transfems or like. a really sad transfem section with 5 items at the end of a list full of binders and packers and harnesses

Superman isn't woke. You're just so evil that you see a man doing acts of kindness and you think it's a targeted political agenda

Kind of loathe how whenever there's talk of some platform banning NSFW content the discussion always jumps to "this is bad because the people who institute these rules think queerness is inherently NSFW!" and it's like yeah but also I think you should be outraged regardless of the slippery slope argument. Because I do think NSFW hetslop should also be able to exist

Just for the record, "Collective Shout" who are behind the current push to harass itch are a bunch of swerfs specifically who keep getting deployed by far right fundamentalists to give a veneer of feminist optics to their censorship crusade. They are also a national joke in Australia, where they're from. For the record to any Aussies listening: You can submit a concern to the ACNC about this being inappropriate for an organisation registered as a charity (namely harassing american based digital storefronts). Also, while you can't call mastercard or visa to complain about this from here (they'll hang up on you on the Aussie numbers) you can email them about it.

Y'know. There are a lot of people who say "problematic" when they actually mean "sinful". And I kind of wish they would just say "sinful".

It'd be more honest about their perspective, and it'd save me time trying to determine whether they're critiquing something in good faith or just being reactionary conservatives.

[haywirecompass]

sorry wait. I contacted visa to file a complaint about the censorship stuff they've been doing and their AI. immediately threatened to kill itself?

tasteful underboob exists and thus we have no other option but to believe in the existence of a merciful and kind god

"actively hungry" + "none of the foods sound good at all" is one of the worst combinations. who let this happen

When we say that the famine in Gaza is man made, that it is manufactured, that people in Gaza are being starved, it is because Israel had engineered this famine from the earliest stages of this genocide.

It started with Israel destroying Gaza’s livestock within the first few months of this genocide, it also made sure to decimate swaths of farmland (most of which currently also fall within the areas occupied by Israel, making them inaccessible), and had made fishing boats and fishermen constant targets of Israeli gunfire and abduction. Not to mention Israel’s systemic targeting of wells and water desalination plants across Gaza.

So, Israel created a process in which 2 million people are made dependent on outside support in order to survive, while it continues to deny entry of said support, and control what and how much of it goes in, which generates the artificial scarcity and results in the inflation of prices that we’re seeing today.

This is all while the UNRWA and other organisations make appeals to allow their supplies in, which are stockpiled in warehouses right outside of Gaza.

This is starvation as a deliberate political tactic; starvation as a weapon of war. This is genocide.
