I have come to accept a simpler and more general argument against billionaires: by their very nature they impose centralized planning over economy they infest, becoming de-facto communist planners, and thus impose upon their habitat all the pathologies that rise from impossibility of planned econ
It may be finally sinking in that a world of radical wealth inequality is unstable, actually.

There should be reward for good work, yes. There should not be outsize reward for being born rich.

this happens every time a republican president takes office. the popular consensus among voters that the GOP is better on the economy is a delusion on par with flat earth

Those censoring Horses are the same ideology targetting queer games on Itch, or fiction you-dont-like on patreon etc

Whether its pressure outside of Valve or from within, it comes from the same place and it lumps EVERYTHING under the same umbrella. You have to defend all of it to defend any of it.

It's much simpler than that. The Boy Scouts aren't maximally cruel to trans kids and so Republicans believe it should be destroyed.

We should absolutely keep pressure up through the entire month of december as well, but I think the Black Friday to Cyber Monday weekend (27th-1st) is when everyone should be really PUSHING themselves to call as often as you are able to handle

Really wild situation here: a celebrated and well-regarded indie dev and publisher is facing shutdown because Valve banned their game from Steam and won't talk to them about it, at all.

Entryism is a problem & I worry that the new crop of leftist activists haven't yet developed a proper filter for tankie bullshitters like Cupp, who are a danger to the left.

And now Andy is having a field day using this for his Islamophobic agitprop.

Already seeing folks say, "Well, HORSES isn't YUCKY PORN like other games are, so..." which is super frustrating.

Now is NOT the time to be throwing the hentai games you happen not to like under the bus. Your rage should be directly at payment processors.

Corporations are relying on shame to stop folks from fighting to keep porn around. An amazing way to fight against this stuff is to simply not be ashamed of sex and sexuality; even if you think some of it is "cringe". You'll do yourself a favor by eliminating your shame about sex.
When you fight censorship, you're also fighting for things you might not exactly like and it's something you gotta get comfortable with. I promise you, the fetish game you turn your nose up at is NOT YOUR ENEMY. You must think of the bigger picture, you must not fall for the bait.

like as with many other cases i think the right response if you're targeted by MAGA and you have a position of real political power is just to lean into that shit. the base will back you 110%!

this is obviously intended to chill dissent but i think it's going to backfire on them. what the lawmakers said was just directly true. and trying to get them for it is just going to raise their profile and the salience of what they said!
MS NOW confirms: The FBI is working with Capitol Police to schedule interviews with the six Democratic lawmakers who urged service members to refuse to comply with illegal orders.

I'd just like to point out this is happening because MAGA pig Bruce Blakeman defied national trends and cruised to reelection thanks to the incompetence of New York/Nassau Democratic Party chair Jay Jacobs, who opposed Mamdani with far more vitriol than he opposed the Republicans

This is what the internet and Twitter was meant for. It was the idea that if someone came at you in your replies with the truth? That could move mountains. Stop wars. End tyrants.

What is happening with Chotiner and Semafor is what should happen when truth is brought to light. Every time.
