A “fake American citizen?”
Didn’t you MOVE to Puerto Rico to avoid paying your taxes while kids across America go hungry?
Meanwhile Benito actually funds low income kids’ access to arts and sports programs, while you defund them.
Of course you’re mad. He makes you look small.
Visa is now openly trying to position itself as the leader of gaming. They just announced a new role, “Director, Global Gaming Partnerships,” paying nearly a quarter million dollars a year. The job is described as shaping culture, building global strategies with publishers, platforms, and creators, and driving innovation where gaming and commerce collide.
But, while yeah - gaming has always been about culture and a sense of a “community” it’s never involved corporate payment processors dictating the direction of the space. A credit card company has nothing to do with the heart of gaming, and yet here we have Visa is injecting itself into the conversation as if it belongs there.
This isn’t about uplifting gamers. It’s injecting corporate interests, pushing propaganda, and quietly shifting control of the gaming ecosystem into the hands of companies that profit from every single transaction. Follow the dollar.
Ask yourself.
What does a credit card company have to do with gaming?
Absolutely nothing.
And yet here they are… paying huge salaries to plant themselves at the center of gaming’s future. This should worry everyone who cares about the future of gaming.
You claim to follow the law and avoid moral judgments, yet you let foreign extremists like @CollectiveShout Influence you and how you enforce your policies, banning entire broad categories of legal entertainment to appease their agenda. This directly contradicts what @Steam and @itchio have said. You’ve turned your platform into a weapon against free expression and your own customers.
@MastercardNews so how do you guys decide what a "lawful purchase" is? do you just go purely off of vibes? do you spin a fucking wheel? perfectly legal content is being censored and hidden because of your draconian bullshit, and gaslighting us about it isn't going to work
