If a corporation does something good, it's OK to say, "Hey, good job. I love that!"

If a corporation does something legitimately shitty, it's definitely OK to criticize them mercilessly too (I do it all the time, would recommend).

What's not OK is trying to tell me people what they can or can't praise/criticize.

The echo chamber on this platform is spacious.

You said “Fuck yeah, love you Valve.” Loving a corporation is weird. Loving the actions is less-so.

  Maybe you've have enough Internet for today but before you go, allow me to explain:
  
  When someone says something like that, they don't literally mean it.
  
  "I love tacos" does not actually mean that I have actual feelings of love for them, even if they are delicious.
  
  It's just a phrase.

    Ah, so I guess I shouldn’t take it as “Valve is a good actor” at all?

    Tacos are not actors.
    
    I'm taking this out of context and there's nothing you can do about it.

I dunno, even if it results in billions or even trillions of humans deaths, I’d rather corpo die than let one thrive. The best form of economics that is not only financially but morally sounds is that of anarchy

  You’d rather the entire human race be wiped out than a corporation do well?

  You probably should stop having your own opinions, you really suck at them.

Good lord you people are so gross. It’s actually more than OK for me to tell you that worshiping some greedy billionaire is an insane thing to do.

Go touch grass, Gabe doesn’t give sit about anything except making huge gobs of money. Steam fanboys are a bunch of looney toons.

  Holy shit who said anything about worshiping? Unhinged response. Follow your own advice and touch some grass buddy.
