#SaveSpeech i know other official govt petitions are getting a lot more notice recently, as they should, but if you havent signed or shared it around yet, the change dot org petition targeting Visa and Mastercard re: censorship is still worth signing www.change.org/p/tell-maste...

You NEED to call your reps and tell them this shit fucking sucks! They literally want to big-brother style waych you at all times, zero privacy, to "protect children"

Start putting their feet to the fire again.

In case AI art didn't made you mad already.

HEY YOU! FELLOW FURRY PORN ENJOYERS!! If YOU don't want to lose access to your FAVORITE porn artists' content, you NEED to voice your worries N O W Do your daily phone calls, tell them why this is wrong! Be vocal, be LOUD Most importantly, support your 18+ creators!! By @/dieselbrain.bsky.social

reminder for people who run a patreon: their autopilot spammer is due to kick on automatically on sept 30. Disable it here, unless you actually want to spam your patrons with automated sales tactics.

Bsky did change the tos after the feedback period, we just need to convince them to change it again. It's not like they're actively ignoring us. I personally want bsky to improve and grow as a platform, I know it wont be perfect, it just needs to be better than twitter. The bar is that low.

actions that will contribute more to pushing against bluesky's censorship than a blackout: -submitting a feedback request -@ing moderation about it -commenting on mods posts about it -making and sharing memes (ex: "i consent!" sticker) -leaving an app store review -just generally posting about it

Do NOT do this. Shout louder. Me and all the other nsfw artists need you to shout louder

I am mad. Even if they didn't listen to the feedback, please keep posting your stuff here. You art is powerful and inspires many. It might never please everybody, even so, don't be stopped, don't be censored. Post and post and post, I want to see all creativity here. All of it. SFW. NSFW.

Lastly, these content restrictions are absolutely part of a larger push for censorship We HAVE to keep working to stop this If free speech is important to you, you can't just stop here Check out the site for more action you can take to support free speech! anti-censorship-campaign.carrd.co 4/🧵

TELL bsky you have an issue with this! 1) KEEP talking about it - don't let this issue fade away 2) Submit feedback to bsky! TELL them its not okay! On PC: on the right under "trending" On mobile: on the left under "settings" 2/🧵

think I'm going to start adding "characters in this image consented to what's depicted" to everything because there's something absolutely fucking hilarious in that kind of malicious compliance. why yes moderator, these characters consented to being murdered, it's all good here

They have this button on the right hand column that in addition to public shaming, lets you shame them in other useful ways

''safe'' internet where i can talk what i want? or ''safe'' internet where people can talk over me

putting this on your timeline again

Remember if phone calls are too much for you, or if you need a break, mailing physical letters is another great vector to contact paypros or your representatives!

If I lose followers over this, why the fuck were you following me lmao Get bent

The petition is nearly at 10k - just a little bit more of a push is needed!

It's time to do that thing you've been wanting to do

CANADA, UK, AUSTRALIA!! y'all all have official petitions targetting paypros censorship! IF YOU LIVE IN THESE COUNTRIES, SHARE THESE AROUND AND SIGN THEM ASAP. And verify by email! CAN www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en... UK petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73... AUS www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/...

U.K. residents, could this be your chance to stop paypro censorship in the country? Please sign this petition petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

These are the "high risk" payment processors actively advertising themselves as friendly towards adult content There is no "oh just use [alternative]" to fall back on. There is no other service or platform to save us. It is NOW. We either fend them off NOW or we are all fucked

I simply cannot stress it enough. You cannot sit this out. They are coming for EVERYTHING. No media, no creators are safe under these policies. They want us poor, they want us criminalized, they want us disenfranchised. Call paypros. Call your reps. Do SOMETHING.

Did you do your dailies? Call Paypros. Call your reps.

If you're represented by a Republican in the House, call their offices to demand they join this. Be sure to tell them you know it just needs one more signature and it should be theirs.

Credit card companies’ censorship of video games is thriving on people’s lack of awareness, Japanese politician says "You can’t tell who's regulating what, or for what purpose. Most people don’t perceive how serious a threat that is" automaton-media.com/en/news/cred...

Wow. CBC just covered the Steam / itchio situation. DONT STOP CALLING MASTERCARD, VISA, PAYPAL, STRIPE www.cbc.ca/radio/day6/s...

We should keep calling

Canadians! There is a petition to sign to protest Mastercard and Visa's control over the purchase of legal adult content. This is specifically about the Steam & itchio situation, but language protects adult creators. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en... #nsfw #censorship #canpoli @acvalens.net

ATTN FELLOW CANADIANS: An actual MP has created a petition to stop financial discrimination against adult creators by payment processors. You have to confirm your email but thats because its something that can actually be shown to parliament.

This is correct.
