Steam allowing curators to promote transphobia.
(lemmy.zip)
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.
Let them. Their just outting themselves as a bigot while promoting games. If anything follow them and thank them for promoting lgbtq friendly games if you want them to stop.
This is fine but they often flood the community board with bigoted content and those aren’t removed by Valve either, and they show up on everyone’s dashboard depending on configuration.
sigh Of course they do. Yeah valve should probably do something about those bigots.
Unfortunately they don’t. I think after the Hatred game debacle, they released new policies saying people can post whatever they want as long as it’s genuine and not trolling, but I think this applies to games only. As for everything else, the company is extremely libertarian and hands off with leadership, development, and moderation. You can find hundreds of neo nazi grooming steam groups, and one of them was in the news a few years back for being where two canadian neo nazi murderers met
