    Remember when this was just supposed to be about pornography? Notice how it never ever applies strictly to pornography and how that’s always just a foot in the door excuse

    I’m ignorant but it seems like Australia kind of censors video games a lot, right? Like the culture of law there is to be kind of controlling about what people can see and play in video games specifically

      I grew up in New Zealand and any game Australia banned was effectively banned there also since we were bundled in as the same market

      Australia is quite conservative and never liked violent video games

      Yes and the group of assholes that got MasterCard and Visa to threaten distributors like Steam into removing NSFW art globally, are in Australia. I’m so mad at the whole situation and the power some biased, conservative, pro-suppression pricks had over the life choices of 8 billion people

      It’s not just that, it’s also group of government officials and other Australians who are staunchly pro nanny state and refusing to allow people to enjoy their right to play video games And refuse to leave people alone

        Also anyone who ever tries to organise anything to counter the nanny-state will rapidly find themselves overrun with far-right dickheads who will try and appropriate the movement.
