You're kissing their arse. Context is not a tennable factor. It's intentionally vague so that it can be stretched when and where they feel like it. This is *something we have seen* in practice many many times. Context doesn't matter. Their opinion and their thoughts matter. It is not objective. Even with context.
You're just ignoring the points people bring to you believing itch and their decisions are the greatest good and that their wording or policies could never be abused or used in bad faith. That is not remotely the case.
We have seen more and less successful examples of web moderation throughout the web site's, its true.
No website has ever been moderated objectively Every single one of Itch's wording or policies could be abused and used in bad faith. That has been true since the first day of the web site, and for all its rules.
The itch.io FAQ page that these standards are coming form says "The following is a non-exhaustive list of prohibited themes present in card processing networks. We are unable to support the sale of any works containing these topics:"
It says containing. it makes no distinctions based on context. The problem is that when a policy is this vague. Will they be abled to the bible probably not. It massive work that many would defend but the fact of the matter is that it could be ban under this new policy.
When people ban inappropriate works, they expand the define of inappropriate to anything they don't like. Censhorpship doesn't stop at what you dislike
Your argument that no moderation can ever be perfect misses the point. No legal system can ever be perfect does that mean we just abandoned laws entirely. No, we find the problems in the laws and make them better. This is a bad moderation policy that in its current form has tons of problems and people and groups like collective shout are only going to push to make it broader.
