Jep. Deshalb wünsche ich mir die Ampel zurück, trotz Streitereien und FDP Nonsens. Die haben immerhin sinnvolle Gesetze verabschiedet und versucht, die Entscheidungen zu erklären. Heute heißts "hocheffizient heißt hocheffizient" & ich fühl mich verarscht.

1/ Ob in Kitas, Schulen oder an maroden Brücken, überall spüren die Menschen, wenn das Geld vor Ort fehlt. Gemeinden und Städte leiden unter akuter Finanznot. Kanzler Merz hatte angekündigt, die Kommunalfinanzen bis zum Jahresende neu zu ordnen. Von einer Lösung fehlt jede Spur.

Schon krass, dass SPD, FDP, Grüne und Linke ja sowieso - alle zum linken Mob gehören. Selbst Amnesty International.
"Linker Mob" wird noch zu einem Qualitätssiegel, so wie "Made in Germany" ja auch mal stigmatisierend gedacht war.

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

"it shouldn't exist" was also tame compared to "it will irreparably harm the video game industry itself if we do not actively stop it" which is an actual opinion I saw from outlets back in the day

One only needed a passing interest in Senran Kagura, back before Sony’s censorship policies caused the series to retreat to the mobile/gacha space, to see the flood of reviews saying things like “icky anime big boobs make me think this is loli for some reason bad it shouldn’t exist.”

Methinks that there are many journalists still wanting to cling to the era where they could show open distain for sexual content in games that makes them uncomfortable without getting this massive amount of pushback, not aware of or even not caring about how they paved the way for this censorship.

In other words, not uncommon to see games journalists revealing a lack of expertise on the censorship side of this issue, believe there are problems when there are not, and then try to sidestep the (incorrectly concluded) “messy” censorship issue — when the mess is all in their own heads!

Even if the scene did remain, however, there would be a very strong argument for the artistic merit of the scene… bear in mind that in Australia, a region with strict laws on eg loli, Lolita and Tampa are legal — even though some bookstores pulled the latter of their own volition

The mention of lolicon and CSAM here is odd. The studio itself notes this is an issue of policy and not legality, which is an important distinction. This is also an instance where the supposed offending material was removed (a young girl riding a naked woman as if she was a horse)

Many wonder why games journalists really struggle to cover adult games censorship
I think this games journalist posting on ResetEra about Horses really gives a pretty unprecedented look into how games journalists think about these things, including the incorrect read on the censorship angle

The "bedroom coders" everyone loves to romanticize were selling shareware. They were selling mail-order software. Victor Hugo wrote Les Mis as a serial for a newspaper and he got paid by the word, which is why it's so fucking long. Labor can only exist if society values its existence.

The fascists are counting on you finding erotica and porn too distasteful to support. Because they always start here. And even if they ended here, sexuality and erotism are integral components of queer expression. You can't support queer creators without supporting 'nsfw' content.

Your regular reminder that when social media people say "Grok", they actually mean Musk's sycophantic chatbot, MechaHitler.
NEW: Elon Musk's Grok chatbot will, with minimal prompting, provide residential addresses of everyday Americans.
Prompts as simple as "[name] address" immediately returned accurate home addresses of private citizens — alongside other personal info we didn't ask for.

4 December 1942 | The Polish underground state officially created the Council to Aid Jews 'Żegota'.
Its mission was to help Jews in hiding by providing food, medical care, relief money, and false identity documents.
