  That’s great, not great that they removed it but a great example of something you can bring up that doesn’t hurt the case.

  I just really wish people would leave actual porn games out of it. Because that is not going to be helpful to their case.

    I dunno, I personally think respectability politics is garbage but ya know, To Each Their Own.

      Could you elaborate on what “respectability politics” is? I’ve never heard that before.

      Point is. Making a movement and using the removal of games that fetishize incest as the drop that made the cup overflow. Is simply not going to go the way you think it is. Unless you think it’s going to crash and burn. Then it’ll go exactly how you think it’ll go.

      You can make at least 101 far better arguments against Visa and MasterCard using their monopolized position to morally dictate what people can and can not buy, than having to involve incest porn. Or porn at all for that matter.

        Porn is art, there’s no compromising on that without throwing someone under the bus. Respectability politics == throwing people under the bus for not being “respectable” enough. It’s been a huge issue in LGBTQ advocacy for a really long time.
