    The alternative is having an exemption for religious texts. If the Bible was judged by the standards of secular literature, it would not be made available to children.

    My god, have you read Genesis? There’s some sick shit going on, drugging people to have sex with them… That kind of conversation damn well wouldn’t fly at my workplace.

    Have you actually read the bible? If anyone takes tagging for sex, crime, and violence seriously, of course they will block the bible. Just because your pastor skips the offending parts does not mean they don’t exist. Same applies to the Quran.

    While these text obviously depict violence in a plethora of ways, it once again shows how flawed “NSFW” is as a catch all label. As a priest the bible is obviously safe for work. For a sex worker porn and sex toys are safe for work, etc. We as society should learn to use more useful content warnings everywhere.

    This is an insult to erotic literature. The Bible has an automatic censor built in. It’s boring as fuck to actually read it. No one reads that shit.

      Based on what? Religious smut and violence should be treated the same as non-religious smut and violence.

              The doom ‘game’ idTech4a++ is actually only a game engine that you have to provide the Doom/wolf/etc game files for if you want to use. Therefore, the engine itself is not NSFW. The pokemon ‘game’ I see is ‘Pokeverse’ which is a deckbuilder/trainer app that just accesses an API online to access that data. Not NSFW. I don’t see how Pokemon would be NSFW anyway.

              Got any actual concrete examples because I’m seeing nothing that would fall in the bounds of NSFW?
