  I’ve seen plenty of “punching down” towards people who buy a game simply to enjoy it. It’s kind of happening in this thread.

    ah yes, Gamers the MOST oppressed class of people.

    bad faith argument that any sane person would be embarrassed to have uttered.

      The problem arises when you believe I’m trying to make some sort of argument. I am not.

      I was nicely trying to point out your hypocrisy. But since that didn’t work, let me spell it out for you:

      Stop being a dick.

        rights are being degraded for trans and women and fucking immigrants all around you but THEY CAME FOR THE GAMERS so you just HAD to speak up.

        if you actively choose to enable intolerant actions, you no longer deserve to be tolerated by civil society. there is no paradox here.

        civil society isn’t protected by people like you, which is what you clearly fancy yourself doing right now.

        civil society is protected from people like you.

      So are you going to make a bad faith argument that Microsoft, Google, Apple, Sony, Nintendo, Steam or who is a good company to buy platforms or games from? Note, most games brought to Linux happen because much of it was funded off selling off those platforms as well. So in todays world if you want Linux games, you have to hope people keep buying them on those major platforms.

      Or are you just going to take the low road of describing yourself as better than everyone else because you only play niche unprofitable games that most people will never hear of and therefor most of society who doesnt have large amounts of time to invest in games likely won’t ever see.

    If I buy a Trump bible to “enjoy” it, would you say that is wrong just because I give money to a fascist that is hellbent on killing minorities? Would telling me off be punching down as well?

      I don’t criticize people for how they spend their money. Do as you will.

  Not sure how you managed to extrapolate all that from my comment but your heart seems in the right place even if you can’t read

    This arguments won’t go anywhere, except a flame war.

    So please, both of you, kindly accept the disagreement, and move on.

        I have a life, I can’t just be 24/7 checking new report, and I don’t know any mean to get notified when one is opened.

        As for the value of my action, if you feel like my action isn’t legitimate, you can either contact the other mods or the Admins.
