Regarding government-run businesses A component government will also be able to successfully run businesses but the ability to do so well will be limited since running a business properly take effort and the people governing a country will also have a lot of other things to focus on. So even a...

Why pedophilia (as properly defined) is bad even when it doesn't result in child-abuse Even the attraction itself is problematic since it promotes unhealthy body ideals that goes against what we actually should promote as healthy body ideals. A pedophile might for example find an 18 year old...

Having people and corporations serve the state There is nothing wrong with some people being expected to serve society even if it isn't what they personally want to do. It can be males being expected and required to participate in wars (or older infertile females). It can be females being...

So far payment systems controlled the central banks have engaged in far less censorship than private payment systems. In fact i am not aware of any central bank payment system being weaponized against anything that isn't outright illegal (often they don't even stop illegal payments). Most...

Nintendo games aren't even made for kids anymore. They are made for adults who has just picked up a controller and people with severe mental disabilities. Anything that made a title intereting and challanging in the past will be removed in order to make the game very easy to beat. Well it...

Honestly i think that's mainly fear-mongering pushed by corporations like mastercard. They want to have that power for themselves. The government doesn't need CBDC to freeze your bank account, they can already do that. They can also confiscate cash from you as well if they find that. Even if...

Snes graphics: Switch 2 graphics:

It's in part that modern nintendo games are unappealing to me. I don't tend to like the artstyle or gameplay they are going for. I also generally lost interest in 2D games. I kinda enjoyed playing kaizo 3 even though i couldn't beat the final boss but after that i felt kinda done with 2D and...

Central bank digital currency is a very good thing We shouldn't let foreign companies/governments be in control of our payment infrastructure. The best option is likely to have the payment infrastructure be directly controlled by the central bank. Central bank digital currency would also allow...

Disease eradication It's especially important that we are able to get rid of infectious diseases. I want a society where people are able to freely interact with each other without having to worry about infectious diseases, especially when it comes to sex. A lot of people needlessly died of...

Is project 2025 behind the censorship push on steam, etc ? Currently people are contacting Visa and Mastercard, en-masse, in an effort to get them to explain why they are banning legal content from being transacted through their systems. These arbitrary restrictions caused companies, such as...

I already allowed you to return with alt. But you tend to make situations worse by arguing with us about server policy instead of simply following our instructions and rules. We have over 1700 member accounts and we are really not interested in having people constantly argue with us about...

The case for conscripting women While young men do make the best soldiers we also need to consider things like meat wave attacks and using people as cannon fodder. Females lose fertility as their age and when they are 45 there is little value in keeping them around in terms of making babies...

You cannot do hatespeech here. It has to comply with swedish law. So don't use racial slurs.

Paying for someones HRT would be a legal liability in addition to me spending money on strangers which i have a policy of not doing anymore. I already help trans people in various ways which should be enough. I don't care about whether or not you get on HRT. This is currently the only website...

I see you got yourself banned but you didn't actually want to be banned from there and you are asking us to reverse the ban. You are full of shit. You just used this thread to complain about things that are basically irrelevant.

Not becoming dependent on technology. It's very important that humanity is able to survive even if all technology where to disappear overnight. This does not mean that we should go back to primitivism, in fact we are trying to avoid that but it should still be there as an option in the case of...

Not letting AI or anything else non-human dominate us We cannot trust people who are not aligned with us on a genetic level to properly govern us. There is no way to properly align AI with the goals of humanity and for safety reasons we need to take drastic measures to ensure that humans will...

Interestingly visa actually denied doing censorship putting the actions of steam and itch.io into question. It's really stupid if they removed games just to keep paypal on their site. https://itch.io/updates/update-on-nsfw-content Even if paypal were to drop them they could still use...

How would the Japanese even be involved in this case? VISA and mastercard are US based companies.
