No such thing as a good billionaire. Least bad doesn’t cut it.

I think we have many, many more billionaires to worry about than attacking valves employees. As far as I know, valve employees aren’t donating to fascism and death camps, rigging elections, and promoting disinformation bots. Or denying healthcare.

Have you ever looked at the steam forums? Valve absolutely promotes fascism and bigotry by not monitoring the content on their platform. They have more than enough money to do it or to just close the forums because mothing good ever came from there anyways, but because Newell is a libertarian fuckwad his platform promotes hatespeech.

Can you please give me some links to the fascism on their forums? I already know they sell fascist games like The Great Rebellion (GOG is guilty too), or that one asset flip where LGBTQ people somehow rule the US with an iron fist - I forget it’s name but I saw it in a video and it was genuinely bad and creepy.

I’d dare say they don’t do ANYTHING against fascism, so in my books they are just as much enablers of fascism as the companies actively lobbying for it. You know, Nazi bars and all that. Plus I’ve got a feeling those who insist they aren’t fash because they don’t spend their money on fash things are not aware of or even ignore things they’re actually doing, or benefiting from the current admin.

Gabens isn’t the employee, he is the owner. When I talk shit about Amazon and Bezos, I’m not attacking the employees.

Sure. But it makes more sense to direct the rage at the actual evil billionaires. I don’t really care if Joe that got rich off wood lag screws made a billion and fucked off to his own land never to be heard from again. I do care about the ones meddling in elections and raping children.

Its like the incel Nintendo rage. No one cares.

Ah yes, the second paragon of virtue: Nintendo. This is the bootlicking I’m talking about.

They certainly are paying tax money to the Trump-Epstein Administration, as is every other American company, further enabling all those things. You have GOG as the European option that won’t pay tax to the Epstein class. Also you don’t really get to be a billionaire without also having substantial political influence…
