I reported them for harassment with the following statement:
The purpose of this group is to review bomb any game that has gay representation. Their discussion threads talk about using other platforms to discriminate against LGBTQ+ communities and individuals to circumvent Steam’s TOS policies. This type of behavior promotes discrimination, review brigading, and toxicity. It is surprising Steam is tolerating such open homophobia on this platform.

Gay people exist.
BippinThatBop took that personally.
Just say you don’t like gay people
The curator has a review for Summer House that mentions a white kid sitting with a black kid and labels it “subtle pro-DEI messaging”. I didn’t know that black people being included in things makes it woke.
Yeah except in the post they’re trying to argue that LGBTQ people existing in media is woke. News flash LGBTQ people exist and want options in their media to be able to reflect who they are whether that’s through more character customization options or stories that include LGBTQ characters. That shouldn’t be political and at least for some of those things I don’t see why gamers complain like character creation stuff it is literally just giving you more options when you make a character.
The existence of queer and non-white people is not leftist, it’s objective, observable reality, free of political bias.
There’s no such thing as objective reality. Our existence as trans people is transgressive, implicitly deconstructing white supremacist consensus reality. Trans people are destroying reality 🏳️⚧️ http://soulism.net
is this the wrong time to tell you about white supremacist trans people? do trans persons challenge gender norms? yes. do they challenge racial prejudice? not really. are the two often conflated because the largest supremacist group is hella transphobic, yes.
Consensus reality is an interlocking system of oppressions and bigotries. All the oppressed peoples of the world have a single fight, and it is against realism.
hey it’s fine if you do mushrooms or whatever but can you please keep the insane thoughts to yourself
No and also go fuck yourself.
it would be appreciated if you could try to keep your unprecedented intellectual prowess in check, well that and your overt little fascism there
“insane” is a slur against mentally ill people. The person calling a leftist insane for advocating equality is the fascist. The person telling a fascist to fuck off is an antifascist. Though I’m sure you “antifa are the real fascists” people disagree.
Your statement is self contradictory. If Reality is Objective, then it can’t be destroyed.
True reality is objective, and does not exist. Fake consensus reality is not objective, though it claims to be.
I’d like to know an example of what you’re talking about. If you mean Scientific Consensus, it doesn’t claim to be, but it’s a hell of a lot closer to saying “shut up, god did it.”
Sounds more like you found yourself in some youtube hole with a consensus that doesn’t reflect reality.
Sure, here’s an example of a false consensus by society: “there exist such things as human beings”
Do you have family you can stay with? Maybe you should see a therapist.
Go fuck yourself
Here’s a hint dude: there’s politics in everything even if it’s not the main theme. If you don’t like it, it’s probably because you don’t like the politics on display.

You treat people existing as political.
Is a gay couple in a movie political?
Why isn’t a straight couple political?
Ok, let’s try this:
Name a piece of media. Any media. Book, film, TV show, game, etc.
Minorities existing should not be political.
The lion, the witch, and the caucasity of this bitch (Hint: You need to be quite privileged to unironically think like that.)
Politics refers to the systems we create to form and guide the shape of society. Every aspect of existence in society is, by definition, political.
Is it incessant virtue signaling for your gay son to show up with his boyfriend to dinner?
As a millennial, there were very few games where I wasn’t shuffled into an obligatory straight romance. The only real options were Fable and The Sims. I was desperate enough that I learned to program and mod video games solely to make gay options. Swapped out models, or pain stakingly changed every single “sex == 1” conditional.
I can’t really think of any big games that force you to be gay.
Tofay i learned that the existence of Women, Queer People and Non-whites is political.
Conservatives are using political power to oppress and exterminate such people, so they’ve made it political.
The question now is “what is the appropriate response to those who oppress and exterminate the vulnerable?” Historically, the answer has always involved the use of deadly force.
Did one of your relatives talk too much during sportsball?
No one likes the guy who rants about politicians over thanksgiving dinner.
No one is advocating they want to interrupt dinner time to hold their family hostage to their political stance.
It’s interesting because your examples are things that are absolutely crammed with right wing stuff - all that pro-war military pageantry and flag shagging, a lot of countries have it in degrees but America is intense for it. The right wingers in the sport crowds are loudly political too, and notoriously so at Thanksgiving… and of course capitalism has just totally dominated all these things, superbowl is an advert and merchandising business that has a game go on between the main sponsorship events.
What you’re really talking about is that those capitalists making adverts are trying to appeal to modern demographics and audiences that are no longer impressed by the bland fantasy vision of america which old propaganda relied upon.
It’s not a virtue if it’s just normal. Trying to repress normal things and pretend they don’t exist, and then getting mad anytime you still manage to see them is just a way of life that is going to lead to constantly being angry.
Nope woke means being aware of systemic injustices. What you describe is people with a saviour complex being ineffective, annoying, failures at praxis. Alternatively, rightoid snowflakes being triggered by being reminded that people different from them exist. The Acolyte is a nice recent example: It’s no Andor but definitely not a bad show, by recent Star Wars standards definitely one of the good ones. Yet a whole mob of people got triggered because, what, I don’t even get it. And before anyone says “It breaks with canon” no it fucking doesn’t.
Translation: including anybody who differs from you in any way.
Coward.
Conveniently everything is categorized as “white or political,” “cishet or political,” “Christian or political,” so everyone you don’t want to listen to will have to shut up.
Find me a subject that isn’t at all political and you’ll have a very dull subject that has zero potential to affect anyone in any way.
No, woke means calling out systemic racism and fighting back against it.
What YOU call “woke” is “my fee fees hurt when straight white man not world savior”
You pathetic shit.
Either that or you’re fine with people not being able to have a voice as long as you have.
Funny, I always remember is the cranky old men bring up politics during Thanksgiving dinner. I’ll take your word on the movies though. I gave up watching them because I started noticing how conservative movies are. Much easier to find an environmentalist villain then a environmentalist hero.
You sound like an incel who’d vote RP. Back to the basement with you.
