Payment processors should not be allowed to dictate what content they allow to be bought and what not. It's not their job to police people, let me live ffs

Here's what i think is likely. For one reason or another, they get excessive refund/chargeback requests regarding these types of titles and decided to act as they don't think it's profitable.

I don't think they care what so ever what you buy, as long as it's profitable for them.

I wish that was the case. It's mostly just extreme right lobbying groups like Focus on the Family and the Alliance Defending Freedom, the same groups that control the far right, exert colonial control over impoverished African countries, and generally make the world a worse place for everyone. The same groups that manufactured cases to screw up Dobbs, Wedding cake lawsuits, and death penalty laws for LGBTQ citizens of Uganda.

We need to stop these Christians from oppressing us.

I'm already looking into organizing a secularist group, both lobbying in the style of SKG, both uncovering pseudo-secular organizations rebranding christian moralism as "common sense".

uncovering, documenting, and analyzing them is important. even compiling other's work on a blog is useful

The NGO called “Collective Shout” is behind this one. They are a feminist organisation against the objectification of women and the sexualisation of girls.

Do you have proof of this? Capitalism doesn’t know any sort of morality or ideology other than that which allows it to extract the most value
