Maybe they reversed it in that case after outrage... I'm basing it on the reporting:

In this case, the furor is driven by the knowledge that Collective Shout isn’t merely against games like No Mercy. It’s also waged a campaign against titles like Detroit: Become Human, Quantic Dream’s adventure game that is decidedly not an “adult” game, and titles like hentai puzzle/dating sim Huniepop. The worry is that, by bucking to pressure from groups like Collective Shout, platforms like Steam pave the way for more extreme censorship measures.

So maybe it was a separate campaign regarding Detroit?

I'm talking just WW2 history in general, but OK.

I can just speak to US public schools, but ALL education has suffered from the gutting of our public education here, and that includes "holocaust instruction."

Yeah, this is me defining words, and not established definitions that have literally been in use for hundreds of years 🙄

Why? Because you don't like them?

It's a perfect example, because there's nothing even close to pornographic in that game. The only possible reason would be because there's a lesbian android couple that runs off together (if you let them).

Lol at thinking this could ever end up resulting in a "collective" of any type. This shit is explicitly meant to do the exact opposite of that.

You're also ignoring the massive rise in literacy rates as compared to when books were new. Most people simply could not read them.

Representative democracy is a type of democracy. You're not doing anyone any favors by conflating "direct democracy" and "democracy".

Though somehow, I feel like you know exactly what you're doing...

Makes me glad that the Fed is an independent agency. At least for now..

How about Detroit: Become Human? Because they removed that as well.

This isn't about porn games. They removed Detroit: Become Human.

If you think this will stop at porn games, then you're a fool.

I could not have worded it any more succinctly. This is what capitalism + the internet has done to us.
