I provided a 🧵of proof, with a laundry list of evidence. Someone out there wasn't a big fan of seeing the truth.
There was nothing "hateful" about my post. I am currently being sued. I put the thread together to correct the record of her claiming she wasn't the very thing that that she constantly portray herself as. It was all HER words.
...How could that be hateful?
Alfie here is a sideways mover into @visa
And for some reason, visa wants to be seen as a brand because they think it will make them more money.
This is the very same visa who @collectiveshout claimed to have manipulate.
Visa seems to want to take over the culture of gaming- it wasnt enough for them to decide what you can and cant buy.
No, they want to get in on “sponsoring gamers”!
“Uplift everyone” — except all the people youve fucked over internationally, in the gaming community, every small business crushed by fees, and who ever else youve financially censored over the years.
Time to apply for the job and see if i can infiltrate. (I know it wont work but wouldnt it be funny?)
>VISA and Mastercard gets publicly exposed on censoring content
>Proceeds to go mask off and position themselves in a position to control all gaming
What an ugly company
Visa is not a developer.
Visa is not a publisher.
Visa is not a player.
Visa wants to have influence in a space that doesn't belong to them, and that they have made no meaningful contributions to.
Gatekeep.
In Australia, where Collective Shout is based, a formal petition has been submitted to the Australian Parliament urging VISA and Mastercard to refrain from restricting access to legal content.

Yesterday in Japan, a famous lawyer made a statement that "anime and manga should conform to global standards," sparking a debate. Thank you so much for the so many comments in response, such as "overseas fans don't want that either," and "that's the path to destroying culture." This message reached Japanese creators and fans, and the voices grew louder, leading to it becoming a major trend on X in Japan. I feel that it probably wouldn't have gotten this big without the voices of people overseas. I also think that it has given Japanese people, who haven't given these issues much thought until now, an opportunity to realize the "horrible effects of international standards." I will continue to work together with people around the world to protect content culture such as anime, manga, and games.
The UK's new National Internet Intelligence Investigations team, focused on monitoring social media for unrest, exemplifies how online safety efforts can veer into excessive scrutiny. This should alarm all free speech advocates. Layered with the Online Safety Act's mandates, it threatens individual liberties and fosters a chilling effect on expression. At X, we continue to stand firm in protecting our users from such excessive actions.
The UK Online Safety Act’s mandate over "harmful" content empowers regulators to arbitrate speech, potentially restricting debates on controversial topics. This could result in algorithmic biases that favor certain views, undermining free expression for all users. We call for collaboration to safeguard liberties while protecting users.
