They got together enough people to mass email, that is all it took.
Companies tend to multiply received responses to represent the total number of people who were to lazy to complain, so Visa and MasterCard saw 1,000 emails as 10,000,000 in their risk averse actions.
Now 4chan is pissed and have started their own mass email and phonecall campaign, so we shall see where this goes...
Who do you even email for that? mastercard@gmail.com?
I assume they own their own domain.
gmail@mastercard.com?
gmail@com.mastercard
moral.doctrine@mastercard.com
Visa also have a fairly well documented history of kowtowing to Christian groups. The CEO of their Asian division is a right-wing religious fanatic who hates, well he's a religious fanatic so you know what he hates, but it's basically everything and everybody.
They don't like Japanese anime very much as well, probably because they think it's all pornography (anime does tend to have that bent, but it's not all pornography).
The thing is on their website they claim not to make moral judgements about purchasers, they claim to authorise anything that isn't actually illegal, so they should be totally fine with pornography and anime. If they are going to be right-wing religious fundamentalists at least they could be honest about it on their website.
Mass emailed didn’t exist in 1969 nor in 1985.
Wherever you went to school, those teachers should be shot.
Maybe read those two comments again, then read your response.
Your reading skills are not what you think they are.
I think you should take your own advice. Just because you lack the intelligence to understand my comment doesn’t mean I’m the one to blame.
Blocked for having shit for brains
Urghs, you are really aggressive and kind of pathetic so thank you for blocking me.
You need a hug or something?
I feel sorry for you
This is some low effort trolling, isn’t it?
I delight in causing you pain. Please tell me more about how I hurt you.
I mean, you haven’t so far. I recommend Prozac for those feelings of anger that just come out of nowhere. Worked wonders for me.
I’m sorry to hear of your troubles.
Do you need a hug?
You sound like a bully in some 1980s comedy. Lol
Keep telling me how mad you are. I love it.
