You don't seem to understand. His logic:
1) censorship is always bad
therefore
2) no game should ever be restricted from a company's storefront
That's his entire line of logic. And I'm calling bullshit on point #1 via my pedoNazi game analogy. I said I support a company having control over the products they want to sell. He claims that a company exerting this control is censorship. So is his argument that companies should not be allowed to have control over the products they sell? Who knows? It's completely unclear to me what he actually wants to be the law of the land.
Also keep in mind the point of this thread is about whether this game should be censored and "whether it is right or not to allow it." This thread is not about proving whether darksol devil is "supporting censorship" - both of you seem somewhat obsessed on this point. Sometimes I support censorship. Sometimes I do not. In this case I've argued that Sony made a rational, good business decision to "censor" this game. And I've also made it clear that I don't think censorship is always bad. If this means that you get to label me a "censorship supporter"..... okay? This label has literally no descriptive value in relation to the argument I'm making.
Feel free to show me where i have ever said nothing should be censored, ever. Or that censorship is always bad. You are making up my position as you go. Every post of mine in response to you has been in direct response to your constant, fluctuating misuse of the term. Your constant spinning of what i am saying isjust that, your spin.
I dont bother having debates on the merits of a topic if its clear the other indidual is using a warped definition out of the gate. It is only meaningful to discuss the various advantages and disadvantages of censorship if both parties actually understand what censorship is, and what is being debated. However, though your entire platform wobbles like it was sitting on a waterbed, at the beginning you were taking the simplisitic and incorrect stance that only government can censor, which is wrong. Then you switched to mocking any other type of censorship, to the point that i think you continue to have zero grasp on the topic.
Your continued inability to understand this, and your constant intellectual dishonesty [even here, as i literally predicted, you used your stupid nazi pedo example to imply i support selling that shit, even though i said no such thing]. I take issue with your inability to understand that you are the morality police, the church lady celebrating some album being banned at tower records. That you draw coorelations between some relatively tame dating sim and nazi pedo crap trying to sell your version of censorship is absurd. Its because you just cant resist, or escape, wrapping up your morals and your logic. So you make up ridiculous gotcha scenarios trying to prove you are morally righteous and on the right side, and anyone who disagrees with you supports x,y, and z. If you want shit censored, own it. Just dont hide behind the false claim that only government can censor and you are just supporting a corporation in good faith.
And please stop thinking that just because someone thinks someone else can create something means they also support it. You cant decipher my opinion on the subject because you are so accustomed to villifying those who dont agree with you that you assume i must be into vile shit because i call you out on misusing a term.
The history of music, literature, and art has been through all these growing pains before. People have been literally executed for making material others found objectionable. Rock and roll was the devils work, ready and willing to twist the youth into sex crazed criminals. Lets burn Huck Finn at the stake, right next to lenny bruce.. The growing pains gaming is going through is nothing new. Heck, weve already been around the block with violence in videogaming. The people burning books thought they were morally just too, just as they thought those defending books and authors were the heathens and perverts. This dance is an old dance, and i dont think you realize what side you are on, nor what song is playing.
