Yeah, it backfired really bad - suddenly people weren't just talking just about adults games, but also the Visa/Mastercard duopoly, corporations LARPing as lawmakers, and all of that.

How can it 'damage the brand'? Doesn't everyone already see them as a blight on humanity?

Everyone except the people who make the laws. They are the only people who really matter. If they get upset, regulations might get enacted and those can be bad for business.
