What makes you to put Stalin as a avatar in steam points?

[Lobby]

You guys out of your mind or what? Stalin was WORST than Hitler and you make him as avatar?! Ignoramus who did it should be fired or force to take history lessons so he will know what he did. If you are OK with Stalin put also Hitler, DR. Mengele, Mao, Ted Bundy and other "beautiful" people as avatars. What a shame... Putin is also as avatar and he is being WANTED as war criminal. You really don`t have normal ideas but to put worst ppl ever lived as avatars? It makes me sick. How do I report this?

Steam is only in it for the money now. Just like supermarkets. They only change where and when, if at all, there is push back. The bottom line rules. Change only comes if the bottom line is affected in any way.

They don't make money off avatars and the games are trash. I mean, what do you want steam to do about it? "Oh, it's a game about stalin so we should auto-ban it."? You can also choose to vote with your money and put the game on ignore. It's really not THAT bad...

As said. Id rather live in a workld where we can have Stalin Avatars if we choose, for that sort of freediom is the sort of thing men like STalin sought to suppress and deny people.

Steam has a game where players can have sex with rotting animated corpses, so it's no surprise Steam would let players have an avatar of Stalin.

Everyone has a kink. And face it. The man could rock a moustache. I mean he's not Otto Von Bismark, but who is?

Hitler, who is a mass murderer and a psychopath, killed some 6.000.000 jews during ww2.

Stalin, who was just as bad as Hitler in many ways, kills upwards of 20.000.000 of his own people and people still revere him in russia. No wonder there is no push back in russia to putin.

Killing 6 mill = bad
Killing 20 million = you get a free pass in the history books as you "only" killed your own people and not another nation.

POLITICS. Literally. Just look at america NOW. That said, the world is ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up and steam has ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up games so all seem to work fine with the time we're in. For the memes.

I mean if you knew Putin you'd understand why there's no pushback. They tend to disappear, into uunmarked black vans. People are just essentially waiting him out at this point.

And yeah Valve is in it for the money. Like every business. And most people are quite frankly apathetic on the matter of stalin. He's some dead russian guy. People reserve their emotions for....the ones who are still alive.

"only"? by your calculations tens of millions of Ukrainians and other neighboring nations under soviet boot who suffered famine and mass murder doesn't count at all? this evil dude ordered to kill much more than you try to present here in his defense.
and if you started to say something about education, maybe you should go back to school and refresh your data. "own people" as you claim for soviets where just Moscow and its suburbs. everything else was annexed and occupied so he mostly murdered other nations.

I'm really shocked at the appalling lack of product safety, food safety, and building structural safety in such a modern Democratic country like Russia. So many high profile people accidentally ingest poison over there, and so many others accidentally fall out of 6-story windows. It's a real mystery how clumsy the Russian people seem to be.

I'm hearing a blue jay and a racoon shouting "Ooohh!" at the distance for some reason.

I don't agree that he was worse than hitler, hitler caused the holocaust, stalin did some pretty horrible stuff but nothing quite on that scale. still though I don't know why anyone would put stalin as their avatar, he was a horrible person.

They both were equally bad. Who wants to put stalin as avatar? Those who want ussr back, dont you read news?

In CoH2 I always encountered people with Stalin and Nazi avatars, whatever, as long as it stays on the virtual battlefield. Someone even wrote an article about how problematic it was, forget his name though, he was a journalist supposedly. Many of these players were just in-game parodying the absurd strategies those leaders employed at times.
