It is. I think you might be a youngin. Back in the late ‘80s and through out the ‘90s, loads of people tried to control pop culture and anything popular by using Christianity and “Think of the children!” excuses. Now, it’s been switched to DEI, “modern audiences”, and “That’s not how a real woman looks!”
Oh no, I know all of that (Footloose was my school musical, after all!) - I just wondered why, in this instance, the people censoring the game had used that as their argument, given they are clearly doing this for the latter reasons you describe there…
Unless it was “niche gamer” that put those posters in that image..?
But nah, I think I was alive for the end of the “Satanic Panic” shit, even if I don’t remember it myself, lol…
I distinctly remember the cancelling of the Dixie Chicks, at the very least!
“Can’t show that in a Christian manga!”
Is this… is this “a bit”..?

It was niche gamer cracking a joke. “Christian insert thing here” has been a meme for a while.
