No private company should decide what legal content we’re allowed to buy. Platforms should not be allowed to retroactively delete content that has already been paid for, refuse to pay creators for sales made, or arbitrarily change terms of service without warning or consent.
Unfortunately, that’s what happening — and it overwhelmingly affects queer indie creators.

Coming soon to a christo-fascist town near you.

It'll be like that town in Footloose, except magats are incapable of learning and don't care if you're not a member of their cult - just like these guys.

Marco Rubio's hunt for "#AntiChristian bias" is creeping #theocracy

In a new war on federal workers, State Department employees are told to snitch on people with #Pride flags

Excerpt: "Unsurprisingly, a deeper read of the cable shows that 'anti-Christian bias' is the cover story propped up to justify Rubio's actual assault on freedom of religion at State. He's giving Christian nationalists at the agency a tool to harass and even Rpurge people who don't share their #FarRight beliefs. The definitions of 'anti-Christian bias' throughout add up to outrage that conservative Christians are expected to treat people who believe differently with fairness and decency.

"For instance, the memo asks for reports of 'mistreatment for opposing displays of flags, banners or other paraphernalia,' specifically during Joe Biden's administration. It doesn't take a doctorate in bureaucratese to interpret this. Rubio is seeking stories where conservative Christians were told to mind their own business after objecting to a colleague putting up a #PrideFlag, a #BlackLivesMatter sign or perhaps a religious knickknack from a #NonChristian faith. This might be more comprehensible if, say, any Christians had being told they couldn't wear a cross or have a picture of Jesus on their desk. Instead, what Rubio is suggesting is that Christians have [the right to] prevent other people from having the freedom to express views and positions they dislike — and that it amounts to 'bias' if they can't control what others do or say.

The authorities in Iran are now claiming that this young woman, who courageously removed her clothes in protest against harassment by the morality police at her university, suffers from psychological illness & has been admitted to a mental health hospital.
I believe her life is now in serious danger.

If you don't like a show or exhibit, by all means don't buy a ticket but don't spoil it for people who are open-minded or less prudish or just curious about artistic expression... 😡#ThoughtPolice #MoralityPolice
