They are anti-trans anti-abortion anti-any-nudity, and pretty much every single one of them has connections with (you know) the really fucked up branches of christianity.

That "neutral" language is a copy paste of all the other dozens of times they tried to shred the right of people to not do business with white supremacists (which as you may know, in freedum land aren't illegal). And as further reading my links would tell you, it would make no difference at all for lewd games because such kind of bigots  *already* considers NSFW illegal.

SESTA-FOSTA is why payment processors have been all the kind of "fussy" in the last few years. Like think to it: why would banking guys be rejecting your fresh delicious money? And if you are wild guess is even "something ideological something", why in the heaven would you be now trusting of the most shameless vile Talibangelicals?

That's a law made by republicans (the same that are very very much happy with these results, and with considering all porn illegal), only meant to make debanking of nazis impossible.

If you want to REALLY make a difference check the SAFE SEX workers act.

The guy was the unscientific voodoo actually, going from the "simple" mockery of people trying to look into his claims to straightup faking his reports. It's true that back in those days you had even more metaphysical theories of the mind (and any kind of "talk therapy" is better than none I guess?), but he kinda managed to pull the rug from most other legitimate clinical research after captivating the attention of the public opinion with his immediately bold and fancy claims. A wound that still hasn't completely healed today.

Then I'm sure people aren't checking their mental health with a game (and of course we are far from any particular apologism here), but conversely.. this is also how such concepts still linger and persist into folk psychology isn't it? 

By all means, I wish all the best to the shoulder angels.

*I mean*, it doesn't seem particularly difficult to rewrite them just in the way of good angel, bad angel (stemming from her "conscience", "morality" or even just fancies or personality cores rather than some hot and sour potato).

Then of course you'll have other priorities.. but I just wanted to underline how this representing a good chunk of what folk psychology is, is exactly the problem. Putting aside the indirect effect of making it seems like psychology as a whole is play-pretend unscientific voodoo, those concepts and their friends have helped to legitimize truly deranged shit. No offense taken or meant, but if we just let them finally die in silence we'd be in a better society.

Great game with great potential, but for the absolute love of god could you rewrite the parts with all the freudian psychobabble?

I get that you have no ill-intents and it's just being played for funny (buxom) laughs, but the thing is so wrong, so disingenuous and has been so harmful that it's a bit like the characters were joking about eugenics. If I can explain.
