3 countries have moved to UNDECIDED on Chat Control, meaning we're now down to only 8 countries opposing. I know it's exhausting, but please keep calling, mailing and spreading the word. Maybe even make posts like this calling for action in your native tongue? fightchatcontrol.eu

what fucks me up about the Bluesky TOS update is fucking every adult creator i know wants MORE labels and filter options. we WANT more granular control over the labels and spoilers we can put on our work so people who want to curate their timeline to avoid us CAN DO SO

Maybe Hornet should bind this Shakra #Silksong #art #hollowknight

if you want to help yell at Bluesky over the TOS, this thread has a lot of helpful info on options you can take!

As better phrased in previous reskeets: THIS IS THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT WE WANT TO BE DOING! DONT FUCKING SILENCE YOURSELF FOR A WEEK! COMPLAIN, MAKE SOME NOISE, DO ANYTHING BUT SHUT UP! THEY **WANT** YOU TO SHUT UP ABOUT THESE ISSUES!!

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

Sight for sore eyes

Think its stupid that VISA and Mastercard think something as innocent as Cat Ear accessories are a bannable offense? Then heres something you can do about it. Complain to visa and MC, call your representatives. Advocate for porn, whole heartedly.

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

You might see several artists mad about the bluesky policy update banning non-con, even artists who do not make that kind of material, and wonder why it's such a problem. If that's you, here is a quick breakdown: 🧵

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.

Once again, Jesus Christ, if your own policy would ban, like, The Handmaid's Tale, The Colour Purple, One Hundred Years of Solitude, A Clockwork Orange, Blood Meridian, Measure For Measure, like.... what are we doing here. What is this for

Calling paypros and bugging your reps about paypros is still worth doing. Continue making your calls!

Don’t stop calling stop-paypros.neocities.org

#SaveSpeech US legislators are pushing harder to pass KOSA and repeal section 230. Call your representatives ASAP and make your voice heard! Advocate for protecting section 230, and demand your reps oppose KOSA!

For those of you in Germany this is especially important as Germany's voice carries a LOT of weight and other countries can oftentimes be swayed by their decision so please, PLEASE do what you can!

Hi. Fill up the phone lines of valve as well as the paypros please. Thanks. Sooner rather than later preferably.

#SaveSpeech Germany has, unfortunately, reversed its position back to undecided. folks in the EU, but GERMANS ESPECIALLY, need to call your MEPs about Chat Control and urge them to oppose this proposal! find your MEP below and yell at them! www.europarl.europa.eu/meps/en/home

i dont know how else to drill it into people's heads but you are going to see this happen to more and more creators until there's no one left, or at least until the infrastructure that allowed us all to share our work as a community and create careers out of it is completely gone you have to act

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

#SaveSpeech so you see that there's a bunch of stuff that you need to call your representatives about lately re: free speech and censorship, but not sure what to do or where to start? here's a handy guide with all the info you need! www.congress.gov/members/find... www.usa.gov/elected-offi...

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/...

petitions are not a silver bullet, but they ARE a powerful point of pressure. far right, puritanical interests got to where they are due to years, if not decades, of grassroots pressure. To fight it, we have to be prepared to do the same. Make your fight sustainable to prepare for a long haul.

Germany has joined the opposing nations! Thats 8 total now! The preliminary vote is being done TOMORROW sept 12th. The main vote is on october 18th, but everyone in the EU should especially yell at their representatives TODAY to see if we can secure any last minute opposition before prelim!

I fucking adore this coconut doggy @spincraze.bsky.social

Reminder that the EU still wants to instate chat control and scan ALL of your private messages! We're up to 7 nations officially opposing chat control! Use the link below to contact your nation's representatives and tell them you want NO chat control! fightchatcontrol.eu#member-states

I am sincerely hands and knees begging people to do this. The existential threat is getting pretty immense and it's not slowing down, not with the gov't *openly stating* that "consensual porn" is in the crosshairs. *Please* call. Please write physical letters. Please keep the pressure on.

Oh, hey. Visa and Mastercard now say you can't pay for WoW. Magic the Gathering. FFXIV. DnD. Lord of the Rings. Because they're all "adult" content against their ToS just for being "fantasy". Let that sink in. Spread this like wildfire and have people in those circles call them. No quarter.

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.

ATTENTION BRITAIN! 🇬🇧 The UK now has a petition to STOP CENSORSHIP by MasterCard and VISA of legal products! This joins the Australian and Canadian petitions that are gaining momentum. Come on, let's get these signed! And spread the word! The UK petition: petition.parliament.uk/signatures/1...

Australians, spread this petition far and wide. Demands Parliament “open anti-trust investigations and penalize the unregulated monopoly of a key part of everyday infrastructure,” as “payment processors are not there to regulate what legal content people consume.” www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/...

lot of people try to stress how these laws will effect marginalized people, and to be clear thats 1000% true but thats WHY they target porn first, so they can smugly say "oh stuff it, youre just mad you cant get your nasty porn anymore you pervert!" so you have to say "yes! i want my porn!"

A man on the streets of the UK is asked about the “problem of immigration” and dismantles talking points with ease.

We went from 3 countries being opposed to chat control to 6 in about a week. But there's still a lot of countries undecided, and more countries in favour, so keep calling, keep emailing, keep sharing. We need more support before the vote in October.

Its another day! We really need as many signatures on this petition as possible! Share it around and sign it if you havent already done so!

This is getting shared a *lot*, so I want to really encourage direct action. You can call a payment processor using information at stop-paypros.neocities.org Calling is important for them - each call to their support costs them money. The goal is literally to cause them trouble until they yield.

We're not going to go away, and we're not going to stop disrupting their operations and making all of these businesses miserable until they yield. They can make the protest go away at any time by getting rid of their restrictive policies. Or, they can escalate. In which case, this continues.

This fight is winnable. The extreme backlash from companies like Paypal is wild, but it's also them overplaying their hand, and it's proof that they are genuinely mad at us. They know how we're protesting, and they hate it. That makes it a good protest. So if they ramp up the pressure, we do to.
