You know there's more than two game companies, right? You know that unlike the presidency in the United States of Fascism, there can be more than one game distribution platform, and those can be run by multiple companies, yes? While you're at it, buying games from Steam means your tax dollars go to the Trump Administration.

Oh ya i know. But no one actually uses anything but steam. Related, If you know normies, they only use Spotify (even though they support ICE and stolen llm slop audio). People dont buy CDs or records or use discogs or bandcamp etc. Same thing.

Lemmings are .000001% of the population.

Skill issue. Literally. See, unlike US politics, you don't have to choose between lesser evil and pure evil, because there are more options not vetted by two political parties and their donors. And in fairness to US politics, the lesser evil is recognized as a lesser evil, whereas here every single time I call out the pure evil, someone shows up and goes "they're not pure evil, they're GOOD GUYS"

Valve has done bad guy things, and I will call out the fact they've done things and their owner has been rewarded with seven yachts for it. You can come back to me when the hypotheticals with EA become reality.
