Valve bows to Kremlin: LGBTQ+ solitaire game [Flick Solitaire] pulled from russian Steam [cited a 2006 federal law prohibiting the "promotion of non-traditional sexualities"]

Which steam games have been removed by the US government?
There was the whole thing about payment processors raising a stink because of Steam, which is comparable and I have no evidence Dementia Don simps were not somehow involved, since this was started via some republican christofascist Karen association. But even if that does not suffice it for you, I’m not wondering about to the present situation, I’m wondering about the situation of when (not if) it happens in the future.

Well, I know im against the grain here, but I find this to be very positive news, for Russia. I not a supporter of sexual deviance. Im stating an opinion, not supporting any imagined “hate”. I want to only support love

So, human rights stuff aside, how/why the fuck do we need a genderised solitaire?
It seems to be one set of cards, as a part or a deck. Its pretty much a nothing burger.

That was done by Australians and had nothing to do with the US government. Stick to the facts.

Not just against the grain, against the instance rules (bigotry). Like a house guest that comes over and pisses on the floor.

“Non-traditional”? Homosexuality has been around and recorded since the Romans and even prior. 2000+ years isn’t traditional? That’s just as long as Christianity.
Inb4 the ackshually, homosexuality is a modern concept that’s been around for less than 100 years

Your intolerance is not welcome here.

No, me merely stating my opinion is against no rules. And what you consider bigotry… well thats fine. Im sorry you imagine I pissed on your floor. Maybe your imagination sucks?
-
Your intolerance is not welcome here.
Ignorance…
Im “intolerant” of nothing.
I tolerate sexual deviance just dandy
Not supporting and not tolerating are very different
-
Canada’s are mostly good so that would be fine
I’d argue imposing your view onto others is not good.

So what you are essentially saying is that you want to persecute LGBT people.

Clearly not if you think said “sexual deviance” should have its culture shuttered by state force.

It’s called “complying with the law”.
Russia issued a lot of legal requirements that don’t make sense. For example they at some point asked more money than we have on the planet, from Google.
Complying with the law on a territory not controlled by sensible human beings should be considered questionable at the very least.

Why the fuck is Steam still in Russia?
Why are they still in America?

You cant just say I “essentially” said something then totally misinterpret what I said…
Well, I mean you can, but the stupidity continues to pain me physically…
It may please you, but if im victim of much more stupid, I may have an intentional seizure/heart attack… either way, i pray to God to help me through this

There’s no misinterpretation. You openly support the state banning LGBT expression. That’s a form of persecution.
If the government demanded that Christian-themed games be banned, that would be persecution to Christians. This is no different.
Why shouldn’t a Solitaire game be allowed to have LGBT skins or themes?

And besides that, who the fuck cares other than rabid homophobic assholes?
-
So, human rights stuff aside, how/why the fuck do we need a genderised solitaire?
it’s art. the question should be “why not” and the answer is “no reason”.

Surprised to not see it linked. Warning: despite being free, recent reviews point out how they’re pushing a monthly subscription to get all the cosmetics.
