While this specific issue began with games, I'm not sure why the underlying issue is only a problem for gamers. There's comments here talking about other industries and goods that have been affected by similar decisions as well. I'm also sure that people can rally around more than one free speech issue at a time.

> I'm not sure why the underlying issue is only a problem for gamers It's not. But framing matters. Gamers are a terrible political beachhead for anything.

  For sure. Which is why my re-framing removed the gaming aspect.

    > why my re-framing removed the gaming aspect Needs to be specific. Visa and Mastercard, to their credit, are picking their battles carefully.

      My original comment was more highlighting that framing it as "unable to buy porno games" was obviously bad, and there are certainly better ways to frame it (and offered an example, off the top of my head). However, someone smarter than me will have to come up with what that looks like. I don't have the perfect framing to present to you, or I would be heading up the political movement myself.
