Privacy I guess isn't a thing anymore or something.
It is scary how you can't escape these things easily (idk unless you don't ever leave your house, or you are in some "third world" country).
Snapchat stores peoples photos and can use them like developing face recognition software, but at least snapchat is optional.

Yes, it was discussed. The baseline conclusion was: The author's presence would be toxic to an already volatile community, no matter where you stand.

Of course not, but in that scenario, it's not the guy's sexual orientation that was the issue. And even if it was, that's an unusual thing to occur. It would be serious and should be taken seriously, but it's intellectually dishonest to equate those two possibilities.

Also, Russia has a terrible record on LGBTQ rights.

So what does that have to do with anything?

Or what, bringing that up just to rub it in the face of someone who hasn't said anything against gay people and seems to support the egalitarian worldview and had nothing to do with the situtation is somehow going to fix things? Or make them admit their fault when there's no real fault to admit?
Or is it going to actually push them away?

Have you ever considered why does Russia have such a record with the LGBT rights?

Or maybe other people here could AVOID the threads that might contain stuff they don't want to see or read? I mean that's just common sense.....you wouldn't think it common sense for a vegan to go into a butcher shop and then be shocked at/complain that they're selling meat, now would you? :\

The OP made a thread with a charged subject, I agree, but one look at the title(with the word SJW) would tell one that they shouldn't bother entering it due to it's subject matter. Those who dislike such on GOG(SJW talk on either side) that come into said threads and subject themselves to such have mostly themselves to blame if they saw the title and entered anyway. If one doesn't like a thread title topic what should one do, then? Enter and get mad/complain or just avoid it?

Also: Comparing all those who talk about such(even if indirectly) to steam forums users and that such people dislike GOG is a cheap shot.



It makes me laugh and cry/sigh to see this lowrated.....it would seem many GOG users dislike SJW talk on the forums yet they don't mind it in their games & media.

With many areas having regulations(only done in the name of safety, supposedly) on wearing face coverings in most public areas it's becoming harder and harder to avoid such tech.

Calm down man! XD

Sounds to me like someone is a tad insecure about something. :P

Errr... insecure about what?

He just likes to joke around/mess with those he dislikes the opinions of, and sometimes also just for laughs.

First off, a comment like yours legitimizing this sort of trouble living in a country with such a terrible human rights record on the issue is definitely a legitimate reason for pointing out.

Secondly, you're country has that kind of a reputation for a reason. It's a bit baffling to me that you don't seem to know about the official crackdowns on LGBTQ people in recent years. This isn't a western conspiracy, it's based upon things that the government really has done.

It's still the same thing if you subjecgt yourself to it....also isn't calling it a toxic dumpster fire a good bit hyperbolic? This isn't the steam forums or the worse parts of reddit, after all.

Also, in general, why would anyone against such topics come into such threads in the first place? If they're clearly marked as such one would think those against them would avoid them.

Such talk is part of current events/society and as such people are going to talk about it on occasion....such is life.

First of all, in which way is my comment legitimizing anything? I didn't say that it was a good thing. What I did say is that bringing it up just to rub it in someone's face as if it was their fault (or mine, for that matter) isn't going to fix it. Or change anyone's mind. Then again, you don't even know if my mind needs changing and you don't even know what my (or his) stance is since you never actually bothered to ask, assuming you know everything there is to know without any evidence.

What I also did say, is that there's a reason behind this sort of thing happening. A wise man would ask what this reason is so they could maybe learn how to stop this from happening.

Well yeah, I don't know about the "crackdowns". I know that the pride parades are outlawed, I know there was a rather disgusting attempt at equating gays with pedophiles by one one of the deputies of the State Duma but you make it sound as if there are government-sanctioned Spetsnaz raids on gay night clubs or that the people are forced to wear pink triangles or something, which is baffling in itself.

I think SJW is a childish term/acronym that idiots use to describe someone that they disagree with.

That's funny. I thought that was used to describe patriarchal, racist, misogynist, shitlords. What, no tit for tat? Goose and gander? Does your universal translator not work?

Some do this, but there are those who wear the moniker with pride who are actually pretty offensive in the name of tolerance sometimes.
