"games about identity"
As fun as that sounds, why wouldn't they be able to make those games if other people make games they didn't like? Would they be too busy using all their productive hours writing furious tweets or something?

Remember that they killed one hundred million people, and still think they can get it right if you just let them have one more go at it.

Because it disincentivizes the promotion of the identities they want to expand upon. Gaming is too White and too misogynistic. They can't compete in a market place of ideas so they use PC and inclusivity etc etc to shut down what sells.

I think there’s a moment of unintended honesty when Kotaku SJW complains about Valve believes “some vague intention of openness matters more than the outcomes of that intention”.
So creepy.
Why are all the Gods such vicious cunts? Where's the God of tits and wine?

There it is, right? Freedom and openness must be curtailed because they’ll lead to some sub-optimal outcomes for some people or groups of people, sometimes.

Only the enlightened leftists can guide us all to the correct outcomes, and that means freedom and openness have to GTFO so that utopia can arrive unhindered.

/shrug
At least some of them have the decency to talk about quality control. Valve was supposed to crack down on clones, and assets flips not content control. TBH that school shooting game was crap and booting it on QC grounds would've been enough for me. But the SJWs were honest, for once and they gave up the ghost.

Pretty solid write-up from RPS.

How is that? Another undercover SJW not doing a good job of hiding his desire for censorship.

I think he represented both sides pretty well. The main point though, is demanding that Valve take a coherent stance, rather than simply collecting 30% of all game sales, and pretending that it's the responsibility of others.

The idea of "legality" is incredibly vague, and so is the idea of "trolling". They've basically tried to weasel out of the conversation entirely, while leaving themselves carte blanche to enforce whatever they feel like.

Enforce something, or enforce nothing, just have a coherent stance.
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.

Now do youtube. :eusa-snooty:

They have been exposed on this stuff. They want the censorship and this juicy tidbit tells us a lot.
When the alt-right gangs together to call for a game about flag burning to be banned, will the liberal left support and endorse their cries?
Alt right is the new neocon. As if only the "alt-right" would be upset with the depiction of flag desecreation. It exposes the hack bitch bias.
