    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.

      It’s not unrelated to the puritanical thing. Otherwise they wouldn’t be afraid of losing money facilitating payments for porn.

      You’re like the negative photo of a boomer. “Everything I don’t like is capitalism!”

          God forbid anything be due to a loss of consumer rights due to deregulation caused by conservatives. No, instead it must be capitalism. Everything bad is capitalism. The reason China is a dictatorship is because Capitalism. Israeli ethnic cleansing as well as the prior milleniums of holy war? Believe it or not, Capitalism.
