    The same VISA that blocks payment processing for sites that have pornography or unsavory politics. Things that are both widely available on X.

    The amount of companies making super fucking clear that they don’t care that Nazis are in charge, they’re here to make money, is what we should have always expected.

    They care more about the profits than whether the society they exist in has morals or values. If it weren’t for double standards they’d have no standards at all.

        It’s not just that: for a long time you didn’t sign so much as ‘make your mark’. Of course, this was because so many people were completely fucking illiterate.

        Being totally fucking illiterate and uneducated is the goal of the Republicans at this point, so I mean, it still tracks, just… more broadly.

      He’s explicitly said he wants to make “X” the China-WeChat-style “super app” of the west that you need to have installed to do anything and everything, and that includes payments https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super-app

    Looks like switching from VISA to something else will be a pain in the ass.
