Well then, I guess you actually don't care that porn games are being removed from the stores right now because having the government be in charge will require you guys decades before such decisions can be overturned, just like how long the fight for free healthcare and sane gun control is taking in the US.

Maybe some governments are more receptive to their citizens plea than the US government, but most governments are definitely still in the pocket of people with big money.

So you admitted that people have succeeded in adding loopholes to the US government that makes all your argument no longer true, and you think they still should be allowed handle payment processing? To me it just sounds like you're arguing for transferring the power from one corruptible party (for-profit payment company) to another one (the government).

It would be easier for the government to actually regulate payment processors so they don't become so big that they can influence online stores that use them than preventing people in governments from turning corrupt and misusing the control over payment processes. Even then, the US government has failed to do the former, so how do we expect them to do the latter?

Your government representative only has a voice in the government, but they don't control it. Calling for profit companies en masse pushes your message directly to the people in charge who are scared of losing profits over this.

Tell me, when has calling your representatives ever resulted in a change in government policy within a reasonable time span? How often does a government do a major change in policy without you needing to vote someone out first?

Do you really think most governments will administer payment processes in a transparent and democratic manner?

What you said applies to most celebrities and CEOs, other than the ridiculous white clothing part. Hopefully you realised that the world has always worked that stupidly.

Which part of the internet can you host these shows on that would have a large reach and still not owned by piece of shit?

What do you mean? He didn't get fired, so none of them had any problem with him falling asleep at work due to his anemia. Sounds like they have his back just fine.

That one might be a bit NSFW.

So your cost should overwrite safer streets, less congestion for people who do drive, and less noise and air pollution for people who don't even drive? What a selfish person.
