Reminder that the only time Mastercard has flinched is when outrage was directed at them. Attacking platforms like SubscribeStar for Visa/Mastercard's extralegal censorship is exactly the deflection they want.

Btw, if it's not clear:
The tactic the right is using rn is to start censoring fetishes and kinks that are generally accepted to be "bad" or "gross" by most people to slowly warm us up to the idea of censoring all sexual expression online.

Don't fall for this by going "this is actually based!!"

tapping the sign again:
no, sanitizing queer spaces of “problematic art” was never going to discourage them from censoring & criminalizing us, their goal isn’t “acceptable” queer expression, it’s none at all.

wake the fuck up & stop projecting your discomfort onto others.

Invasive parasite that spreads its seed into other things that it then grotesquely puppets with the goal of sucking the planet dry and then repeating the cycle? Which is then spread willingly by irresponsible rich folk who believe it to be the next frontier of human evolution?

Yup, checks out.

I feel like now more than ever, solidarity is important for all artists. They aren't going to just stop at the art you don't like. If you let them outlaw some art, the next day they will be coming after the stuff YOU draw, because the end goal is to get rid of ALL of us

Federal Reserve Board - Proposal Details The Federal Reserve Board of Governors in Washington DC.

The government is asking for public comments on whether banks should be able to deny you from buying legal goods at their own whim (i.e. how they're cracking down on art)

Tell them you don't want to be told how to spend your money

This is important if you don't want visa or MasterCard to tell you how to spend your money.

NSFW Artists being attacked on all fronts while the government actively protects pedos is fucking nuts and shouldn't be ignored.

SubStar walking back their new rules against feral/furry porn is not a win and shouldn't be considered one. They're hoping y'all take that and don't care about all the other harmless (but taboo) stuff they have banned since you get to keep your furry yiff.

Advertising these again

Hey, alongside contacting your representatives, this seems like another thing worth putting a bit of your time into and sharing around. If we could get "reputational risk" taken off the table, even in this current climate, that could create a chilling effect on these kinds of policies

Individual websites will not save us. Running from platform A to platform B will not work as payment processors and legislation will simply follow our trail

You have to speak out against censorship and surveillance legislation. Its the source of all of this.

Call your reps

The fun part is it's all subjective.

I've drawn plenty of bdsm, some rough sex, characters with animal traits like tails. What constitutes a violation of the terms? Where are the lines drawn?

We are heading down a dark path and we have to be loud about it.

Hey Kids you see this ?

You use that to make these morons understand that they're being a tad silly. At this point you might as well not hold back, its for their own good.

worth remembering, David Lynch directed “fix your hearts or die” specifically at transphobes. it wasn’t a generic “no mean people allowed” statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.

meant to repost this yesterday I didn't know yesterday was miku day until two days ago, I would've liked to redraw it but I didn't have time
happy migu day...

I know calling reps is very nerve racking. You're not sure what's the right thing to say, and tbh having a script thrown at me makes things just as nerve racking.

I called today, and I figured I'd write up a transcript of how my call went down. Hopefully it helps demystify the process

call your reps. This package was pushed through the house.

hbd yako!!

The angry part of Bluesky remembered KOSA (now under the Kids Internet and Digital Safety Act, or H.R. 7757) exists but rather yell at you I'll say:

If you have REALLY bad anxiety (like me!), you can call your reps after hours! Voicemail counts! The site 5Calls give you a script to read off of:

These idiots man. People are gonna be gay. People are gonna be horny. People are gonna be where there is what they want. These attrition tactics can't change human nature no matter how far they get with the law. When you're running The Porn Speakeasy I'll help clean. But yeah let's try to win first.
