All steam discussions are woke

[Umbreon]

I see a universal, pervasive trend in (almost) every single steam discussion: the mods are woke and won't tolerate anything that violates this postmodern religion's sensibilities, and when you appeal it to steam they tow the line or give a cop-out, such as, "Well it's the dev's discussions it's up to them!". That's not true though. The truth is, Steam and Steam moderators actually have universal, unilateral power over every single discussion thread, period! I got a mod to literally admit that to me! They just don't wanna deal with it. Clearly they should push it off to everyone else and F-U if you disagree! But I digress...

My point is this: all steam discussions and all threads and all moderators (with very few exceptions) all believe in the exact same woke-ness that goes beyond a simple agreeableness. It is a very specific set of beliefs that many like myself find offensive, and if you say anything EVEN SLIGHTLY DIFFERING from this narrative you are warned, or banned. It's absurd, it's basically reddit 2.0 (or the forgotten Stalinism). Does nobody know about the 1st amendment? Steam is an American company, but still: nobody behaves consistently with the 1st amendment, which wasn't to protect protected speech, but to protect CONTROVERSIAL and DISAGREEABLE speech. But that's not how things work 'round here in 'merica, it's all about preaching a certain narrative and set of opinions and everything outside of that is unacceptable. It's quite sad to see what has become of the internet space, and steam is still one of the best remaining platforms in this regard yet it is still extremely compromised by political and religious messaging masquerading as "socially acceptable".

It is sad and all of you working at steam should be ashamed of yourselves for making this the norm, as you can absolutely change it, but it might cut into your profits so you do nothing.

Most people are 'woke', we know how many anti-wokies there are because you all joined that anti-SBI group and it turns out there just aren't that many of you.

most people are followers, regardless of how awful what they are following is. Look at: cough heard round the world (2020), Mao's China, Soviet Russia, Germany circa 1930s, etc. It's not a qualitative judgement that you are 'in the majority', so well done. Enjoy the fruits of your pursuit

Lol. Zero to Nazis in 60 seconds.

The entire thread is complaining about how many woke people there are in the forums. The fact that there are more counterstrike players than reactionary culture warriors is relevant.

If democracy wins, why is the will of the majority never respected in any western nation? Have you ever noticed that what every single ordinary person wants (which is the vast majority of real people regardless of ideology), such as lower taxes, more efficient govt. spending and less waste, less regulations to conduct business, not insane inflation, etc. None of these things ever happen. Everyone who has payed taxes wants these things, now granted that might not be you, but instead we get raises for congress and govt. employees of all kinds and billions and trillions of PRINTED dollars (which devalues all dollars everyone possesses, inflation being the printing of more worthless greenbacks to pretend like we have anything of value) and people are simply befuddled. Like you. You don't know why your ideology is bad, you've never made anything real in your whole life, and you don't understand inflation either. You're like a baby with a pacifier demanding "EQUALITY NOW!!!" Do you have any idea what it takes to feed people like you? Ever looked into that? Ever looked at the ingredients of the food you're eating for that matter?

Didn't think so redditor. I'm sure your gender studies degree is very, very useful somewhere

There is not a majority who what everything you listed. Everyone is different. The issue today is that the extreme left and right are in conflict. What you are seeing are not the people in the middle.

... that, and vocal minorities. Right/left extrems scream & shout to the point of drowning out everyone else. The next problem are people listening to whomever screams the loudest, not to who got the better arguments. Those people are, I think, the root cause. The only reason why extremists yell is morons listening to them yelling.

Actually most people grow out of libertarianism by the time they're 8 or 9.

Lol, I just reread your post. In a single paragraph you complain about inflation AND about government workers getting pay raises. Do you just expect them to work for less money year on year?

Ed: I actually checked your post history because I was pretty sure you were a leftist larping a reactionary. I'm still not sure to be honest.

because the west espically america isnt a democracy.

everyone in the west minus the usa actually doesnt have free speech they actually do have hate speech laws. canada being one of them is why sbi had so much blow back. it actually is a first amendment violation thank to nobodies in other countries with rules we dont have.

also supporting democracy tells anyone whos an adult how little you think about things because democracy is literally the 51% voting to rape and pillage the 49% a republic like america is has something like a constitution which says ya no you cant period end of story.

any kind of chat bans to be blunt is one of the highest ethics violations you can ever make and ya its reached a point where morons screeching the n word and spamming it are worth more. i can block them and they stop being issues. the people who love to violate peoples rights with chat bans and love the report function while ignoring the block function out right. there is no answer to them aside from close your wallet and put the company out of business because they dont use reason in the first place for any of their decision making. they literally lack the maturity for civil discourse which will always see disagreement. they prove constantly they cant handle that disagreement.

You complain about being banned but are so quick to hit the report button against others that don't agree with your thinking or ideas.

Oh look there goes another report...

Have fun on Twitter with every other tweet being an ad from a chinese dropshipper or some crypto scam.

this is what im talking about btw. this guy is gas lighting and picking a fight an actual rule violation and they wont ban him.

i never said anything about me running to the report function. i said to many people who love the chat bans do. the only thing this person is doing is baiting a fight and they should but wont ban him and then wonder why everyone with a brain hates them. id be amazed if they gave him a warning despite the obvious violation.

i dont use twitter lmao. i explicitly dont use most social media because of people like you and the mods. its a known fact most of the mods these days on most platforms are power tripping losers with known biases that are such a problem they tried to screw with a billionaire who did a disney hades on them and fired them. if you dont understand the problem with that then no one can help you.

I am not picking a fight or anything I just merely pointed out the truth. I have been on the other end of you and your reports because I disagreed with you. You are OK with getting other people banned but when you get banned you think it is always unfair and unwarranted and as such you hurl abuse and slurs towards the moderators.

You realise people moderating social netwroks are actual employees working for and following the guidelines set by the social site owners, right?

And in the case of Twitter the boss of those moderators is Elon Musk.

he wasnt lmao. this is exactly what im talking about. people literally dont read what is posted and then act shocked when they see people dont like them.

he bought twitter because he wasnt their boss and they did try to power trip on him. its an example of a person with the means of ending the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ doing so. it cost him an insane amount of money to do so. if twitter had stayed in their lane elon musk wouldnt own twitter which is actually called* x under elon btw. the point of using the word twitter is to specifically point out the timing and how he didnt own it.

the worst part is most of the politics the activist mods love so much are califronia politcs they arent even american values or american politics. so ya no duh its woke.

Actually, he had no choice but to buy Twitter because he couldn't keep his mouth shut.

After his proposal to buy Twitter, then initialing the whole process, he tried to back out. He was blocked from backing out because his own mouth directly influenced the price of Twitter and would've been seen as market manipulation.

He didn't want to buy Twitter, he was forced to.
