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.

With that absolutely pathetic follower count I'm not too surprised it's still going under the radar.

Compared to curators that people actually care about, that's a fraction of a fraction.

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.

Anything that isn't a straight white male = woke.

[-] [email protected] 24 points 1 week ago

Even that's woke, according to their definition.

"Straight"—sexuality = woke "White"—race = woke "Male"—gender = woke

I guess games just can't have any characters in them at all anymore, in case one of them has a race or a gender that gets referenced.

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.

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!

Some of their reviews are so petty that I want to believe it's satire (though I know it's not). Game has a girl that wants to be an astrophysicist? Woke. PCs fighting equally well regardless of gender? Woke. Literally any POC in the game at all? Woke.

These people are so fucking pathetic and hateful, it's mind boggling. I struggle to imagine how they get through a single day without passing out from the shock of seeing all the "woke" things around them.

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

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

[-] [email protected] 21 points 1 week ago

These are literally reviews pulling down the review ratings of the games

Sadly I expect this kinda shit to be normal

  1. I used to get various death threats because of a trans flag in my profile, it's been replaced by spam scammers
  2. When they didn't take down the Rittenhouse game that stung a bit...

These weirdos even think there's an LGBTQ character and boom, instantly triggered. Bonus points for a minority existing as anything else but a target.

LGBT is a tag on steam so it's really redundant, bigots can just filter the tag on their account page.

[-] [email protected] 31 points 1 week ago

They don't want to filter it for themselves, they want to filter it for everybody or better yet, stop it being produced in the first place. They make their tantrums as public as they can for a reason.

[-] [email protected] 23 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

what, you think a company that makes more than ten billion dollars a year should be able to afford basic moderation?

[-] [email protected] 22 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

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.

Oh no, bro! Hypnospace Outlaw portrays a version of the Internet in 1999 that is more diverse and inclusive than it actually was?? Oh no!

[-] [email protected] 24 points 1 week ago

I remember the Internet of 1999. It was full of awesome weirdos. Everyone thought it was great that awesome weirdos had a place to say what they want to say.

If anything, in some senses, the Internet of 1999 was far more diverse and inclusive than the Internet of today.

Ironically the LGBT community could probably use this list really well to find games they want to play involving lgbt things

[-] [email protected] 20 points 1 week ago

Until the curator gets shut down, their list is a great reference of games to buy

Steam curators are such a stupid feature, why would I care about reviews from some specific person instead of just general users? Also clearly a lot of the curators haven't played the game because lots of them already have reviews on unreleased games

[-] [email protected] 24 points 1 week ago

Curators are just the steam equivalent of movie reviewers.

If you get familiar with a reviewer's take on things it can help to know if something will be enjoyable based on their preferences to yours. For me, I loved Ebert's reviews because it wasn't the score he gave, but how he worded the review. Some reviews were listing the things he disliked, but since I knew he disliked certain things I loved, it let me know that kind of movie getting a low review from him meant it would be dumb fun and not pretentious. Butbif he mentioned something that we both disliked, I knew to skip that movie.

Bisexual

1368 readers
1 users here now

This is a community for bisexuals, their allies, friends, family, anyone curious about us or our community, or just people who want to hang out.

Bisexual means different things to different people, and I'm not going to tell you what it should mean to you. But one thing I will say is that being bisexual does NOT mean being trans-exclusionary. We love no matter what dingles, dongles, or dangles you do or do not have in your pants.

Of course, there are the basic rules. No hate speech, no brigading, no doxing, no homophobia, no transphobia, no sexism, no racism, no illegal material. Rules will be added as needed.

At the moment, we do not have a hard and fast rule over NSFW images or posts, but I will say that this is a community about bisexuality, not for porn. Please don't make me ban NSFW content altogether.
