Why do you think payment processors are restricting their policy to exclude pornographic content? (pawb.social)

They're probably not doing it just because, my guess is that it's to appeal to the fasci- I mean- conservative government heading the US right now. And yes, I am aware that they are probably going to restrict more stuff as time goes on if they're unimpeded. I'm just looking for a solid motive

Again, please let me know what book you're talking about, I'd love to judge it for myself.

Rape?

However, he would not listen to her; since he was stronger than she, he violated her and lay with her.

2 Samuel 13:14

Here is my virgin daughter and his concubine. Please let me bring them out that you may ravish them and do to them whatever you wish. But do not commit such an act of folly against this man.” But the men would not listen to him. So the man seized his concubine and brought her out to them; and they raped her and abused her all night until morning, then let her go at the approach of dawn.

Judges 19:24-25

Incest?

Amnon was so frustrated because of his sister Tamar that he made himself ill, for she was a virgin, and it seemed hard to Amnon to do anything to her. But Amnon had a friend whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David’s brother; and Jonadab was a very shrewd man. He said to him, “O son of the king, why are you so depressed morning after morning? Will you not tell me?” Then Amnon said to him, “I am in love with Tamar, the sister of my brother Absalom.”

2 Samuel 13:2-13

I mean, these readings are all acceptable for children by christian standards right?

Tell me more about how it's LGBT books that are the issue.
