One reason why I came to bsky from Instagram was that I was tired of only posting sfw drawings and if I didn't, I'd get shadowbanned or worse... Here we have a nice thing called "labels", so every time I click on "show" I consent to viewing nsfw. Why additional censorship? #BskyCensorship

it should go without saying but if you want users to voluntarily tag their art then you need to not threaten to ban them if they do. like, you can either have a well-regulated, easily-filtered art ecosystem or you can ban art you don’t like and see it come oozing back out of every crack and crevice

I'm not participating in a blackout because the point is moderation and others want me and those like me gone, and I would much rather continue to occupy the space I helped build rather than give everyone a chance to feel how much "better" it is without me. why wither when you can be a thorn.

Quote with your green art!

@bellular.bsky.social has been consistently good and on point on the issue of payment processors overstepping and deciding who gets to make art. Watch his video and like genuinely go to the channel and like and subscribe youtu.be/ECpWyMuQZBI

One of the sillier aspects of combating issues like this is that as the corpos start to realize they don’t actually have wide support, they start going silent. CS did the same after about the 3rd week The lack of feedback can have a pseudo-chilling effect on activists, don’t let it Do those dailies

OMGGGGG I LOVE

i dont need to like certain art, and i am allowed to criticize it i also dont need the government to define and harshly regulate art. there is no way to defend Some free speech without defending All of it. fascists see no difference, and if you give them an inch, they'll take a mile

I'll get the hang of posting regularly one day 💀

People have fairytale ideas of what it means to make change in one grand battle (that they would be too scared to take part in) and it's like please wake up. Real work is often very long and boring so hop on

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.

“From people I’ve spoken with at multiple platforms, they’re just suddenly told, ‘Starting next week, you won’t be able to use our [payment] services anymore.’ And it’s not even communicated by Visa or Mastercard directly, it’s passed down indirectly" automaton-media.com/en/news/cred...

Visa and Mastercard reportedly coming for FAIRIES and CAT EARS Get on the phone and ask them wtf is up because this even made me double take bsky.app/profile/dark...

🥀 Rose City Comic Con 2025 Artist Alley G47 Got some con exlcuisves and low on a lot already! ♥️

well maybe they have, it's just not- oh. not a single story or article or blog. or mentioned by any of the contributors on their own social media. once again, progressive action for everything... except the icky porn stuff.

UK folks! Youve got your own petition now! You know what to do!!!

Attention fellow AUSTRALIANS! 🇦🇺 We now have an official petition to parliament to STOP MASTERCARD and VISA from its campaign of censorship, restricting what legal products we can buy. Please sign it now, and if you're not an Aussie, spread the word! www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/...

💚 Jhudora 💜 Still happy with how this piece came out and it's hard to believe it's already a year old 👁️

They were never going to stop at what was "legal" or not. They didnt to begin with! All art/media is on the chopping block. You have to fight this NOW. keep calling, contact your reps. Make some noise!

These paypros still need to be pressured over this shit! If you havent made any calls yet, now is a great time to start doing so because theyre only continuing to ramp up their shitty censorous behavior!

Would anyone mind just reposting this post for users in Mississippi? I know it’s an ask but I would appreciate anyone and everyone in my state to just know this is an options. also, if anything happens with another state and a similar ip ban, this repository may hold solutions as I add them.

this is why adult creators are really emphasizing that non-creators be the ones who contact paypal. Of all the paypros, PP is the most likely to act in a retaliatory manner towards individual accounts. If you dont make adult content or youre just a commissioner, you are able to help a LOT

Reminder: If Visa and Mastercard are allowed to limit what games you buy, there's nothing stopping them from limiting what food you buy, where you buy your clothes, what services you're allowed to pay for, and more. This is a fight for your freedom to spend your money on your terms. Keep calling!

#SaveSpeech #CPBC As we near closer to 4 weeks of sustained pressure, I made this infographic to help focus our targets and to suggest a daily goal that is feasible for most people more info and phone numbers here: stop-paypros.neocities.org yellat.money find reps www.congress.gov/members/find...

as I said earlier, there is likely not a policy on file written in big red letters that says "fuck them gays". This does not mean Stripe's policy re: Adult Content wont/doesnt effect queer creators disproportionately. It does. The goal remains the same. Pressure their Adult Content policies.

remember this next time MasterCard claims they arent attacking free speech, that they are willing to crack skulls rather to listen to demands is why we should get louder, don't forget keep calling! #ProtectPorn #SaveSpeech

We've had new eyes and new coverage on our fight today! Keep it going!

Man, in addition to being fulfilling from a skill perspective, drawing erotica has been so emotionally HEALTHY for me personally. With it, I have managed to heal parts of myself that were badly damaged in my youth by the same kind of people who are trying to ban porn right now. this stuff matters.

NEW: Earlier today, Mastercard denied playing a roll in the Steam and itch.io purging NSFW games. But Valve now says Mastercard communicated concerns indirectly through payment processors and banks. kotaku.com/mastercard-d...

Valve breaking silence on this is huge, they really dont do this. Companies, at this scale, dont -do this-. Visa, mastercard, stripe and paypal are feeling the pressure. They are making mistakes under pressure. Keep it up
