    It's really awesome when the whole world has to stop using master / slave nomenclature because one country has ugly past.

    1) not just one country. 2) this is different because no one actually *made* anyone do that. That I know of, no company was going around threatening to cancel services if other companies didn't stop using the term, and certainly no one large and critical. A social pressure to change a word is different from a financial pressure to remove a product.

      It's really awesome when a group from a foreign country and a foreign religion gets a dictate how I as an American I'm allowed to purchase legal products in my nation.

      I don't like it either and they're from my country. I also don't like when America exports its bullshit either, mind you.

            You argued that real porn is bad because of exploitation of women, but there's so much porn out there where that simply isn't true. An obvious example would be gay (male) porn where no women are present. Not that I disagree that there isn't a huge problem of exploitation of women, or staggering amounts of reinforcement of bullshit gender roles, or countless other problems. But, genuinely, not all porn is bad.

                  Christianity is inherently anti-feminist. It’s right there in the book they bash so much.

                    I am not talking about the slavery but about the nomenclature. Only one country had a problem with its use in technology and we all had to change.

                        Great way to make people start pirating games again. Just like movies and series saw a huge rise is pirating recently. Its almost as if pissing people off has the opposite effect of what you want it.

                        Itch.io is how independent games are funded, not just distributed. If you pirate what few NSFW games exist, you’re not likely to see any more, even on even more niche platforms.

                              It's mostly incest games, but the thing about the slippery slope fallacy is it's not a fallacy when they have a stated intention to keep pushing.

                                Fair enough. I imagine that it's typically women who get exploited the most but men aren't exluded

                                  The only way to fight this is to show you're spending more money than those idiots no? Would be fun if Steam and Itch.io made some numbers public to shut down those prudes.
