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.

Just say you don’t like gay people
Why would I say something that isn’t true ?
This comment is an excellent example of how every word uttered by a conservative is either deception or manipulation.
It is not possible for a conservative to enter any conversation in good faith. Honesty is simply not a conservative trait. It never has been.
There is a cure for this plague of conservatism, but it is not a pleasant one.
"I like gay/trans people, but they are a political issue. 🤓☝️"
Pick a lane.
Gay people exist.
BippinThatBop took that personally.

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.
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.

I’m under no assumption that you are required to jump at my request. Frankly, I’d prefer you graciously replied to the comment.
Nobody is forcing you here, relax mate, it’s only the internet.
Would sir kindly suggest his favourite piece of non-political media as I would like to indulge.
That’s a really smart move on your part, disengaging with the conversation the moment someone claims they can demonstrate the ridiculousness of your beliefs.
Crisis averted, well done
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.
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

Sure.
A: “I hate you.”
B: “I hate you too.”
A: “I hate you more.”
B: “Not as much as I hate you.”
A&B: “Bleh.”

Yeah, I know everyone knows they exist, that’s what “objective, observable reality” referred to. Reread the first part of my comment, that’s the part that directly relates to what you said.
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.

They’re making the (correct) observation that the two things you call out as things people want to “just enjoy” are also filled to the brim with political messaging. You just don’t see it as “political” because you either explicitly, consciously agree with the political messages being conveyed, or because you’re blind to them (either because of an implicit, unconscious agreement with the messaging, or because your environment has normalized the message to the point that you don’t realize it’s political to begin with).
In other words, you say it’s a complaint about “leftist messaging being shoved into nonpolitical things,” but in reality it’s not really being shoved in your face any more than any other type of political messaging, you’re just seeing messaging you either haven’t normalized yet or disagree with, both of which make it stand out more in your brain (either due to the novelty effect, or the backfire effect, respectively).
Do you not remember where “Let’s go Brandon” came from? Rightwingers interrupted an interview with shouts of “Fuck Joe Biden” and the interviewee tried bring attention back to the interview.
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.
Translation: including anybody who differs from you in any way.
Coward.
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.

Ehehehe gotem
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.
