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.
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.
This looks like it’s for a different steam curator than the one in op’s screenshot. Still probably a tos violation ofc
Wow. I thought to myself surely they would be using some blatant dog whistle for the removed, but nope, steam is fully letting them rate games negatively by using every slur in the book.
This definitely looks much worse for steam than any of these sad, lifeless homunculi. I reported them and made note about how letting this group continue looks awful for steam and not taking action reads as endorsement.
If I didn’t know I wouldn’t get a rational response, I’d love to ask them where it makes sense for those “removeds” to be. Especially in fantasy games.
Are the 'removed’s n-bombs?
Yes.
Christ almighty. I was trying to give them the benefit of the doubt (and struggling tbh), but this is just inexcusably bad
Looks like it’s time to report bomb.
“Immigration is woke but also native people are woke,” and the rest of the list is similarly frothing and delusional. They struggle to finish a sentence without adding a hard R.
