Steam allowing curators to promote homophobia.

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.

I don't see this as an issue, I see it as a recommendation list.

NOT RECOMMENDED

[...] Non-binary character option.

What a pathetic and sad way to spend time in your life. Spreading hate...

CTDummy ,

Don’t worry guys, I’ll sift through all this gay hentai so you guys don’t have to I’m a hero!

Thanks lad, can’t wait for you to find all the airport toilets that should be avoided so I don’t accidentally wander my way into a BJ.

I keep telling all these gay men to stop sucking my cock but they just won’t! I’m really annoyed about it!

Just know this is against the Steam TOS but they would have to be reported to have any action taken and it probably won't happen quickly.

Anyone else using this to find new """woke""" games to play? (After reporting for bigotry, of course)

Dagamant ,

It’s funny how they can never define “woke” when asked but have no problem labeling any sort of inclusion as woke when they make a list of woke things. To them, woke is just the safe word to say instead of the slurs they want to say.

Woke means constantly forcing leftist issues in everyone's face in events, places, movies, or anything else that isn't political. It's an Incessant virtue signaling forced upon situations and people who are watching sports or having Thanksgiving dinner. Time and place dude.

ThePyroPython ,

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.

BippinThatBop ,

No. It's not that there's politics in everything, it is more that you insist on making everything political

At least be truthful.

PapaStevesy ,

The existence of queer and non-white people is not leftist, it's objective, observable reality, free of political bias.

MindTraveller ,

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

Here’s the groups definition - it’s linked in one of the forums. Your instance might filter some words:

> Wokeness and left-wing:
Economic leftism isn't woke according to this list, unless there's A LOT of unskippable leftism.
Race (including unchecked third-world immigration and indigenous nonsense) sexuality (I'm a strong woman who need no man) and tranny (muh gender identity) nonsense (non to mention '''non-binary''') are woke.
Putting removeds everywhere where it doesn't make sense is woke.
On-the-nose allegories to removeds and trannies are woke (such as Deus Ex: Mankind Divided).
Telling wokeists to fuck off is based for a company. Ignoring them is based too.
Using pre-2008 cultural norms within the game that was released after 2012 is good.
Obama is a war criminal as much as Bush or even worse. If you disagree, you're misinformed or a shitlib. This is meant as a non-woke statement. Excusing him on the basis of being a removed or half-removed is somewhat woke.
Woman's suffrage from 17th century to 2023 isn't woke. At worst (in case of heavy-handed pandering) it's mildly woke.

Christ almighty. I was trying to give them the benefit of the doubt (and struggling tbh), but this is just inexcusably bad
