Steam allowing curators to promote homophobia.
(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.
The curator wants to use offensive language but avoids doing so to prevent getting banned. So they use “polite” ways to discriminate and encourage their following to do so as well.
If you looked any further into this group and exited your own bubble, you would realize this. Instead you commented without reading further and assumed I reported this group because they don’t enjoy the same types of games I do.
By this logic, i could accuse you of wanting to say the N word but only not saying it to avoid getting banned. So FACTUALLY nothing like that happened but you realize how shit would the justice system be if it worked like this? I could just insert thoughts and wants into anyone's head, and crucify them. If something didn't happen then it didnt. Call it out once it does. Dont' assume.
I’m not assuming. They explicitly state they do this in one of their discussion threads. Take your own advice.
