    It’s hard to not despise Collective Shout. On top of the morality policing, they’re unapologetically arrogant about it in the most regressive ways possible.

    “it is clear many of the men defending their r*pe games perpetrate crimes of violence against women, because they are doing it to us right now.”

    Conservatives already tried that line in the 90s, claiming violent games cause violent children. Guess what— it’s now a trillion-dollar industry.

    Our objection has always been clearly stated - rpe, incst, and child sexual abuse.

    “Oh, won’t somebody think of the children!”

    Roper stated, "If Steam and itch.io had been moderating their platforms as they should have, there would have been no need to temporarily delist games to ensure they were not in violation of their policies.

    Oh, look, DARVO. Let’s blame the platforms that temporarily lost their ability to take credit card payments for developers losing money, not the people bitching to Visa and Mastercard.
