Comment on What was the actual reason for the crusade against NSFW games?

It was the work of Collective Shout.
They’re an Australian christofascist group trying to push right wing purity nonsense. There was one game, No Mercy, that really did push things too far. Collective Shout was able to poster child that game and pressure payment providers into pressuring game platforms to delist a lot of NSFW games.
A lot of the ultra wealth you may have noticed have a christofascist lean, so with the vocal pressure from Collective Shout it was easy for them to claim economic harm saying if they didn’t pull games there’d be a boycott or something.

I think THIS is OP’s question. It is perfectly believable that a small number of insane and delusional people might truly think that these things are bad.
But I think the bigger question is: why do the ultra-wealthy believe this,or at least support it? What is the end game? Porn is popular and profitable: why is there no billionaire who has made their money off of smut rising to defend their industry?
I wouldn’t fully credit them, at best. VISA and MasterCard have their own puritan history, that fringe group is a scapegoat to do what they wanted to do anyways.
Makes me think of Harvester.
Ty, I’m going to donate towards them.
This is an observation, not a threat: You are choosing death. It’s a death cult. If you don’t value life, keep it to yourself. Don’t take others down with you.
你好，我的好朋友！

And it won’t be surprising when the christofascist leaders are outed as sex pests because the loudest voiced against sexual expression are personal fans that want to donimate others for malicous reasons. Like all the anti gay religious leaders that turn out to be child molesters.
