US Senator Warner Presses Valve to Crack Down on Hateful Accounts and Rhetoric Proliferating on Steam
U.S. Senator Mark R. Warner
We can start with larger, much more influential social media platforms. How about Twitter?
Politicians would be better focusing on things that matter like how the Democrats lost the election to Trump and how they're going to win the midterms.
A crappy paper finding rude words and phrases on steam is not really worthy of anyone's attention but Valve's
"Millions" of examples sounds dramatic until you look at how many billions of exchanges have been made in valves forums and comment pages. It needs addressing but it's not of international or even national importance.
Instead of virtue signalling, Warren should be asking how the Dems managed to allow Biden a free ride through the primaries, held on til the bitter end blocking alternatives and then endorsing Harris blocking any debate.
I'd rather Warren focus on fixing the Democratic Party. A bit of democracy in the Democrat party would be a start.
It's a shame we can only work on one thing at a time
Just a quick correction, this is Mark Warner, not Elizabeth Warren. Otherwise I agree with you though.
Feels like the Steam community groups and discussions are so massive that it's going to be an impossible job to start managing it now, unless they just nuke the entire thing and start over.
It got noticeably worse in the summer of last year. I have no idea what actually changed around then, but that was the first time the Steam forums were so toxic that it may not have been worth asking your question.
