  • Never forget, Steam allowed Alex Jones to publish his "anti-woke" video game there. And it was as disgusting as you can imagine.

    • Worst part is, it seems like it's still up on the platform for purchase. They legitimately do not care. It's funny though that they decided to ban one developer and their games because the person was being openly transphobic, so it seems like they're trying to make people think they care, despite not actually caring.

      • Sort of like every business and corporation that has a booth at Pridefest. Many of them are hostile to the LGBTQ+ community, yet they're at Pridefest just for the PR.

        • Yeah, sort of. Though they're a bit more honest since they don't even pretend to care about us. Probably hoping that if they stay quiet long enough the problem will go away and won't hurt them.
