Wait: you also use Patreon as a platform. Which is beholden to the same standards set by payment processors as itch. You do have several payment processors who are ok with your work.

I think it's natural to care for the other people who will be affected. Justice for scat porn etc. There's just some hills I'm not willing to die on. I don't see rape games with fascist devs and fascist messaging like No Mercy as the people who would show solidarity if the shoe was on the other foot: they would almost certainly celebrate the removal of what they would see as degenerate art.

In less leftist spaces, spaces which we'll call center-right to be diplomatic, this whole itchio shadowbanning is being discussed as a censorship of rape and incest games with no mention of queerness. In fact, this is considered an instance of leftist censorship and the center-right are complaining about leftist feminists (not distinguishing between feminists and terfs).

Its so sad the most grotesque fascist porn games affected will find a new home the easiest. Obviously. That's part of why this hurts queer people.

I'm sorry I keep bringing up No Mercy, its just the easy well known example to point too. Many such fascist porn games got deplatformed.

Patreon used to allow sex workers on its platform. People who'd sell photoes of hole. It sucked when they got banned. There wasn't a lot of solidarity from NSFW artists back then - they just kept on keeping on. The kinds of solidarity NSFW devs are demanding from SFW devs now never materialised when NSFW artists could have supported sex workers all those years ago. Its sad. I sometimes wonder who we NSFW artists are to now demand what we never gave. I just reflect on it some times.

Sorry for the rambling post.
