       When activists tried to stop white supremacist groups from using Mastercard, the company responded: "If there is a lawful transaction, our view is, this is a private transaction that is being taken place within the framework of laws  ... If it is lawful, then we need to respect that transaction. If it is something that is sort of against the tide of society, it’s the society to rise up and change the law, and then we can move on this." https://seekingalpha.com/article/4272059-mastercard-incorporated-ma-2019-annual-stockholder-meeting-conference-transcript

       This is a chronic pattern: US corporations which provide financial or web services get very serious and philosophical when asked to restrict hate speech, but are quick and casual about restricting sexual speech (remember CloudFlare v. the Nazi forum?)

       @bookandswordblog Cope. Remember, the same logic can be applied to you, if the right comes back to power. So go on and support your censorship like a little faggot so stuck up his own ass he cannot seem to view reality as it is, but a demented scorched version of what it actually is. Try and restrict people’s rights, try and stop people who disagree with you from being able to express themselves, tunnel money, have businesses, but just you know karma will bite your ass so hard the doctors will remove your asshole in surgery.
