S.401 - Fair Access to Banking Act

to be fair, if it really took removing the gooning games being fucked with for people to realize the power of payment processors I must thank collective shout for getting normies to understand that "debanking" isnt as simple as dealing with the bankers

As positive as that can potentially be, it doesn't change my desire for them to fuck off and die for violating the golden rule of leaving well enough alone.

We've had internet ID laws passing uncontested left and right in the states and I figured that it was pretty much joever. Nope, thanks to CS pretty much everything is under the microscope now.

So thanks Australian harpies and UK cuckolds for your public service.
 
Is there a thread for gamer outrage in relation to this? Because while I hate censorship in any form and think this is frightening overreach, it's been really fucking funny to see gamers and gooners lose their shit, especially since Mouthwashing is banned.

It's the double-whammy of Steam, GOG, and Itch all being hit with censorship from payment processors coupled with people seeing shit like the UK's Online Safety Act and EU's Digital Services Acts do actual government censorship. The frog was boiled too quickly and it triggered the ancient American impulse to tell foreigners (especially Europeans) to fuck off when they complain about us being vulgar/offensive.
 
i don't get the rainbows, fatpacks has been wrong 100% of the times he tried to doompill.
You have to give him the relevant reacts for his posts. You read them opposite and react accordingly opposite. Because he's the reverse oracle/Jim Cramer of the farms. :story:

IE:
Fatpacks: We're all gonna die!
Response: Thank you fatpacks for letting us know we're safe and sound
 
>women nag payment processors to censor games
>make a post about it
>censor the post after women nag
like poetry
Looks like compromising didn't work and she left forever because of one word LMAO.
If you think a man who calls women he doesn't like "holes" is not a misogynist then you are coping. You're "one of the good ones" as long as you do/say what he wants only. Your personhood depends on how agreeable you are. The fact dozens of off-topic/infighting posts calling me "retarded hole" (and even one in which a user calls Null's potential future daughter a "retarded hole") are left up sends a message that is clear. "You are a retarded hole for disagreeing with my choice of words". Not just the censorious women in Australia. Even if you are against payment processor censorship as well (as I have expressed many times that I am) as soon as you say anything they don't like you are demoted to hole status.

Women are not people to men. Wake the fuck up.

I'm done with this place and judging from the fact none of the regular posters even post here anymore I think I am not the only one.
Now that we're way past A&N political moralist spergs pandering and the terminally online femcel reject pandering arc is about done, I wonder what the next group of people null will treat as a protective species and let form le "site cultúre".

Black people maybe?
 
I don't really have the ability to quote what is said directly without a MASSIVE self dox and opsec failure, but my Senator just got in touch with me.

He is a co-sponsor of S. 401. He's been working on this since 2013 ever since "Operation Choke Point" (which I do not remember mentioning to him) was written in such a way to target certain industries without first showing legal wrongdoing.

He mentioned in 2017 him and another Senator asking the DOJ to do a review of options to ensure small businesses are allowed to operate without fear of financial consequences, and to confirm that Operation Choke Point was being ended. He received confirmation that it was. Again I don't remember mentioning Operation Choke Point in my email (I used a form letter, slightly modified, from one of the early posts in the farms in this thread IIRC).

He mentions that large banks and financial institutions have continued to restrict certain industries for political reasons. He specifically mentions firearm and ammo industries. He doesn't mention the erotic video game and art industries, but well, that's politics for you.

Amusingly, he mentions the OCC issued a rule on January 14th 2021 to prevent institutions with more than $10 billion USD in assets from discriminating against businesses for ideological reasons. However, he mentions that Biden admin suspended this rule on Jan 28th, 2021. I believe this is the rule @Null mentions in one of his articles for ZeroHedge.

He confirms that now that Trump's appointees are positioned at the financial regulators, he will work with the Administration to reinstate the OCC's Fair Access rule. (Fair Access to Financial Services (OCC-2020-0042-0001), specifically.)

This OCC Fair Access rule may be better to aim for than S. 401, as it could be implemented TODAY if Trump and his team would get off t heir asses. But I'd leave that to @Null to judge if that would even help the situation as it stands or which would be better.
 
The OCC rule is very straight forward: stop all forms of debanking. It's actually stronger than the legislation, it is the correct authority to issue it, and the only downside is that it can be paused by any new admin. Basically it is the right rule in the wrong place and needs to be law with more teeth to it.

Ah, but would it prevent MasterCard from saying "stop selling your incest porn game, Steam, it's making the 40 year old cat lady in Australia mad" or would that require a more different regulation?

I mean anything that restricts MasterCard is a good thing, it's just this stupid Collective Shout situation is on my mind right now. NewProject2 as well, come to think of it.

Honestly idk the specifics (I've never played the game), I've just seen people bitching on X
IIRC, the game has a rape in it or in it's immediate backstory and it's played pretty horrifically straight. Lots of PTSD, psyche problems, etc.

The entire game is basically a mental breakdown simulator based on a leftist theater kid type being left in charge of a spaceship during an emergency or somesuch and everything going to shit in the worst ways imaginable.

Like, imagine if during the Biden Admin we had ended up in something similar to the Cuban Missile Crisis and had to rely on idiots who thought they could subject Russia to cancel culture to make them heckin' validate the Ukraine. That sort of fucked up.

Just happy to drive up traffic here.
Really, one of the solution is to completely deregulate the financial system. I'm serious. If you could start a bank in a single day, this problem would be solved. If I could go out tomorrow and start the First National Bank of Kiwi with literally zero banking regulations. Problem would be solved overnight.
gee it's almost like capitalism works.

Corporatocracy refers to a system or society governed or controlled by corporations, where business entities exert significant influence over political, economic, and judicial systems. It is characterized by the dominance of corporate interests in decision-making processes, often leading to a situation where corporations have more power than elected governments. We are not living in a capitalist society, that's why it sucks.

Welcome to the new era of techno-feudalism, enjoy the bugs.

we used to execute people for far less.
 
People are starting to notice. It would be super hilarious if incel gooner rage of not being able to fap to incest loli porn is what dethrones the payment processors. I’ve seen multiple featured memes on iFunny about this. And it’s all framed as an actual assault on humanity and then they go into detail about how all the gooner shit is gone.
