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"]
-
“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

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
Your intolerance is not welcome here.
-
Not just against the grain, against the instance rules (bigotry). Like a house guest that comes over and pisses on the floor.
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?
-
It seems to be one set of cards, as a part or a deck. Its pretty much a nothing burger.
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.

An angry enough people overthrows their government. Depriving the people will get them closer to that
That’s literally was Israel says about Gaza

Non-traditional as to the religion. Orthodox catholic church is fucked up in head, and lately been standing on a wrong side of many things. Even going so far to in-fight with each other for their statements. They are like The Mouth of Sauron - they preach on behalf of government and lately it feels that they spit to vile shit out of their mouth just to please their government.
-
If America does this shit, they should pull out of here too
By this logic since you disapprove of the actions of Valve then you should not use it if were an existing user and not start if you’re not.

Calling LGBT content sexual deviance is bigotry. Regardless of it being your opinion. It’s still a bigoted opinion you chose to break the rules to share.
And since bigotry is against the rules, you’re like a guest that doesn’t respect their host by pissing on the floor. Leaking their bladder (your bigoted opinion) all over the carpet.
Which is why the host kicked you out (banned you).
So you can see my imagination is fine and shielding your bigotry behind ‘that’s just my opinion’ doesn’t fly on most of lemmy.
Hope that helps.

Its a free card game with paid or grind to get skins. One of those skins is a rainbow camelion.
