“People hated living under communism just ask them”

Actually you’ll find most people preferred living under communism

“They’re just blinded by nostalgia”

So you can’t just ask people about what it was like under communism?

“No you can, if you did you’d find they all hated it”

Monkey’s paw curls. Raw chicken is now more expensive than cooked chicken; The price of cooked chicken remains the same.

Anarchists are left. Anything to the left of capitalism is left. Anarchists want to get rid of capitalism.

Turns out the lesser evil was evil. Who woulda thunk.

People can make racist jokes. But the punchline has to be more than just “haha racism”. If only racists are laughing at your joke, it’s not a funny joke, you’re just being racist.

What the? WHY AREN’T YOU LAUGHING AT MY RACISM?

Weird. Does this mean the selling of cheaper steam keys just isn’t true or is it just not enforced?

And if you want to sell on a good platform that platform is going to want to take a cut.

So you’re saying even in the case of steam keys valve is cool with it?

What does that have to do with my comment?

Videos games aren’t like food or housing. If you want to buy a game you can look up all the different sites selling it and buy from which ever one you think is best.

Goal post.

What do you mean it doesn’t exist? Epic got me to download their launcher because they were selling gta 5 for free. How could I have found that out if I only play on steam???

If there’s a genuinely good product that’s popular because it’s good. There’s no need to step in and give shittier products more share in the market.

The point in breaking up monopolies is to be more fair for consumers. If you want to say they’re technically a monopoly because they have a large share of the market then fine. But I don’t see that as a bad thing until it starts abusing its power.

That’s only for steam keys.

If they do anti-competitive behaviour then that would make them a monopoly.

“Steam is so popular because they’re good not because they’re a monopoly”

“Oh yeah? Well what if Steam was a monopoly? They would be a monopoly then right!”

It’s weird because normally having a monopoly is really bad but all the competition pales in comparison to Steam and they actually provide a good platform. Maybe after Gaben dies Steam will go to shit but for now they’re not just the best but also doing way more than just being a place to buy games.

Everyone deserves a fair trial ffs. That’s how you prevent innocent people being thrown in jail.

If you’re legally required to have a degree or whatever related to the topic then all you have to do is require social media sites integrate some sort of display that shows the users qualification that they can submit to these sites if they want to use their platform to discuss such topics. Then when you see someone making consistent claims without displaying their credentials you have the evidence right there to deplatform them.

I can literally go and do this right now I wouldn’t need authority.

But with an actual dedicated team they could collect this evidence and present it to a court for this issue.
