We can only hope that Patreons decision will come back to bite them in the ass eventually.
But then again if i where to play devils advocate, some of the decisions might be out of Patreons hands.
It could very well be that whichever country their main server is located forbids things involving Incest, drugs and so on fictional or otherwise.
I know in England such things as Shotacon and Lolicon is forbidden, and being caught with possession of it could either give you a fine or in worst chase scenario jail time.
The fact that it´s entirely fictional seems not to matter, so maybe it´s the same thing here.
Another option is that this might be an image problem, that the guys over at Patreon has decided that if they allow such things to be financed, they will lose more customers than they will gain by allowing it.
Personally (though i am not a businessman so i might be entirely wrong here) i would hope that Patreons policy becomes a kind of hands off approach in that, as long as it isn´t illegal we won´t remove it.
Let the free market decide which on our countless subscribers the people want to support.
