So weird the moral panic that was happening from this lmao. People are way too obsessed with kids seeing nudity, every generation grew up trying to see porn, from boomer magazines to fuzzy ppv on channels you didn't have access to to sneaking it on a laptop, I don't see how this is effectively different lol.
Whatsmore is that there's this pretending like the Internet isn't one giant ecosystem. There's literally nothing stopping kids from opening up pornhub, or if it's blocked some other million sites to choose from, on another tab and saying they're 18 lol. Why does it fucking matter if twitch allows some nudity on there?
It does to advertisers who don't want their product associated with that. Also, Hexbear doesn't allow nudity / porn partly because it doesn't fit the culture that the mod team wants to cultivate, same goes for Twitch
nah, they also promote joining the military and beer to children. they're just caving to weird incel nerds who wont shut up about this. it has nothing to to with any kind of moral imperative
I think they’re most likely caving to advertisers. Not g*mers.
And parents. G*mers and incels can pretend all they want that they're mad about nudity and they'll harass the people doing it but deep down they want their titty streams and are probably frothing at this ban. I think it's def more advertisers and parents who walked past their kids on twitch and saw them watching some softcore.
Idk I think it's the conservatives that control financial middlemen with veto power, like banks. not advertisers. Advertisers tend to love sexualized imagery and use it all the time.
