Oh, that’s Jason Pargin. People might recognize his pen name David Wong.

Because “everyone else is doing the same thing” isn’t a form of dismissing the problem and burying your head in the sand.

US exceptionalism once again.

“We’re not shit, everyone is shit! But we’re better at being shit than everyone else!”

Okay then.

Capitalism is a shit system, but it took ~200 years to corrupt to this point because the power is more distributed (at first).

The US is reaching the average lifespan of an Empire. Capitalism has not been particularly good at preventing collapse, it has been about average.

with what little we have

Like lobster.

Who will think about the poor individuals that can only afford lobster and a pot, but not a freezer?

No, you smash that repugnant shit

Sounds like a very quick way to kill it.

I feel the need to point out that the person you’re arguing with is not saying you shouldn’t kill lobsters.

That was literally a point they made.

Yes, most billionaires keep quiet. Doesn’t change the fact that just because they are billionaires that doesn’t mean they can’t also be complete idiots.

When have they ever tried to hide it?

Only videos, but they don’t seem to be stupid.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump have proven that intelligence, competence, and charisma are not important factors in someone becoming obscenely wealthy.

Do the Nazis ever claim they are intolerant of minorities because the minorities were intolerant to them?

Group A: “I am intolerant of (group) because they need to go back to their own country and not live in mine.”

Group B: “I am intolerant of (group) because they don’t tolerate other ethnicities.”

This guy: “but who was intolerant first?”

Nice try FBI

The article from July explains why Steam banned this game last month, despite Itch (which stopped selling certain games due to the payment processors) is selling it?

Who is this article writer that can see 4 months into the future?!

You claimed Steam banned this because of the payment processors. The same payment processors being used by stores that didn’t ban this. Seems a relevant point to the discussion we are having.

Do the other stores hosting the game have the same payment processors?

Steam hasn’t banned adult games. That is proven with a quick search of Steam’s catalog.

the slippery slope starts somewhere.

You know slippery slope is a fallacy right? The “slippery slope” can also stop anywhere.

When did I (or anyone else) exert pressure on Steam to not carry this? My understanding is this is a decision Steam made.

I don’t know but don’t give up. Try reading my post again, take it slow, I’m sure your can work it out.
