  • Wow this push against Valve kind of popped up quickly and suddenly didn't it?

    • Honestly it's about fucking time. The unmoderated hate speech on their platform has gone on long enough. Many people don't realize just how bad it is but I recently hopped on some servers and I got called "tranny" and "groomer" because people knew me and they knew I "used to be a boy" (not true, I never was a boy, just in-denial). I've also seen people pushing Nazi shit on Steam community discussions and in-game on official servers, it's insanely bad.
