I fully believe that many social problems in my life could be solved by being really annoying about them.

Reminder: Seeing evidence that the pushback is working is not a reason to step back and declare victory, it's a reason to ᴋᴇᴇᴘ ᴄᴀʟʟɪɴɢ!

If you live in the US also call your senators and tell them vote NO on KOSA(Kids Online Safety Act), NO on the Screen Act, and NO on IODA(Interstate Obscenity Definition Act). All of this matters. It's tiring, I understand but we can't afford to lose.

Keep calling. This issue can't die.

It starts with delisting games, but the likely goal is to enact a new morality police that can silence marginal groups and anyone who speaks out against the status quo.

The payment processors are feeling the squeeze! Let your voice be heard!

Today's reminder to keep the pressure on! They're hoping we'll shut up, get tired or bored, and just walk away.

If we keep trashing their operational metrics, they'll fold first.

small question can you post the tepig comic here as well? (considering i cant seem to find it on twitter)

Here's the bill btw
Call your senators and tell them to shut it down

We just got the notice... if we cannot pay it off tonight we're fucked. We're still $1.5k off from making rent. Anything helps. Even just spreading the word

its sadly deleted it seems (or not avalible sadly)

the fact this story is hitting si.com is fucking huge

mastercard just slammed a mallet against their own balls while shitting the bed

this feels more so like a last resort dont stop make them suffer

CAN CONFIRM. Riot's mods are immediately nuking any mention of mastercard, and giving lengthy chat timeouts for otherwise innocuous comments.

unsure how effective comments will be w/o absolutely massive numbers, but its EXTREMELY telling that mastercard feels they have to resort to this.

Please don't stop calling them. If you do, they'll win, and we cannot afford to let them win. We must keep the pressure going until they listen to us.

It's like a virus. If they put out a statement at 2 weeks and we stop, then the next time they censor even more, we'll have to call 4 weeks to get them to even make a statement.

The fight won't be easier to win a year from now. We just have to be relentless, we can't give them a recovery period.

‼️These are the people behind Collective Shout, KOSA and all the other global censorship and online privacy invasion initiatives: "The Committee has produced reports and working papers on implementing
digital safety by design for children"

Amazing to see 'pornography' listed alongside 'Terrorism'

cannot blame you tbh i just wish there was more art of it..

was feeling a certain way about this plant today

i am doing my part and try to wake as many people up.. im not a fighter but someone gotta do the logistics

Cartoon monster lady, Sue, in a "Don't Stop Calling T-shirt, pointing at a personification of "puritan activist groups" looming over a personification of "payment processor" Sue's Dialogue: YOOHOO! These motherfuckers think they can pick and choose what you do with your own money. You wouldn't let them do that, would you?

Hey if you hate censorship and want to do more than just doompost online, you can actually do something: Being annoying!

Hoards of people have been blowing up the phones of payment processing companies to pressure them not to bend to the whims of puritan groups.

"it" wont happen.. we as a collective being of chaos and freedom shall make sure it wont happen over our dead body

Heres another place to start

while im not fighting im spreading the words far and wide *we need to act as a one*

#SaveSpeech

its been a week, and while we cannot let up pressure on making phone calls, we need to start applying pressure elsewhere now as well!

PHASE 2: START MAILING PHYSICAL LETTERS

Do not stop. If you stop at the acknowledgement and celebrate now, it will die where it stands. Keep calling, keep writing.

KEEP CALLING

Collect some games that have, at one point or another, been banned from certain storefronts and remember that this didn't start with us and it won't end with us.

Visa and Mastercard released their public statements on censorship!

Visa and Mastercard are pretending they don't make any judgments on legal purchases, but Collective Shout CLEARLY told us they successfully pressured payment processors.

KEEP CALLING! IT'S WORKING!

Even if true, calling them is still very effective in getting them to put pressure on companies they work with.

If Stripe can say to steam/itch "follow our censorship rules or we won't work with you", MasterCard & Visa can say to Stripe "stop causing us trouble or we won't work with you"

Stripe, Visa and Mastercard have all made some kind of public statement within the last 24 hours about the #SaveSpeech backlash. While theyre continuing to dig in their heels, a response is MEANINGFUL PROGRESS. it means we are having an effect.

yall are doing great. keep up the energy! Call! Mail!

The script to oppose KOSA (the Kids Online Safety Act) AKA The Big Bullshit Censorship Bill is now up on @5calls.org

We’ve already seen the results of this over the last few days in the U.K. with their Online Safety Act (OSA). Let’s make sure it dies off again. Call your reps ☎️
