    It’s not hypocrisy because a lot of that “censorship” is over things like characters that are underage or consent issues.

    You really wanna talk about “censorship,” well, in Japan, in Cyperpunk 2077, the entire section that lets you pick your genitals is cut out of the console releases and you can’t get the dildo weapon because you’re not allowed to show genitalia on consoles because consoles are seen as being “for children.”

      You can’t even show genetalia in porn in Japan.

        Or in pretty much anything. I saw The Shape of Water in the theater when it came out, and there’s a sex scene in it. They literally blurred the few seconds of the man’s naked butt. It was very surreal.
