Normalising digital restrictions management and renting games rather than owning them. He didn’t start it. But he sure as hell normalised it.
Holding a near-monopolistic position in PC gaming and taking a one-third cut of most PC games sold, and an up-front fee to be allowed to sell your game in the first place.
And then spending that eye-popping sum of money on multiple yachts rather than, I don’t know, maybe improving the world even a little?
Gabes goals are twofold. Make money for himself and those under him and improve the PC game space.
He does both both unapologetically and without secrets or shady shit. Honestly, it’s not his responsibility to fix the world. It’s ours collectively. He does his small part to improve what he can. He saw a need and he does his best to fill it. And at the same time he pays his workers the highest wages in the entire industry. Most people who work at valve are millionaires.
I believe billionaires need to be taxed out of existence but this one is not the one that we need to hang first
Honestly, it’s not his responsibility to fix the world.
Yes it fucking is. What the hell am I supposed to do other than occasionally turn a blind eye while grannies shoplift 65p packets of biscuits? Which, if my boss is reading this, I obviously would never ever do. He has the means to actually do it.
It’s not his job to feed the world either. That’s our goddamn government’s job. He puts money where he wants. That’s the system we live under and we can fix that and change it but until we do denigrating this one man out of all the evil billionaires is kind of strange.
He also funds a Marine research facility that maps the ocean floor and gives scientists access to deep sea diving tools and submarines. He donates to charity occasionally, to the tune of hundreds of thousands to millions. What have you done other than complain on the internet?
You need to understand the propaganda machine’s in full swing. There are enemies online that pretend to be your allies and they slowly turn your opinions. You’re being brainwashed.
Well im fucking women all the time, ive joined my local DSA to find more opportunities to improve my community, I donate to local food banks and charities within the means I can afford. I help out my local community members via volunteer time or just being out there on the street handing out food/cookies. I enrich the lives of my many friends by working on my baking hobby and bringing cookies and cakes and happiness to everyone around me. I work very hard 50 hours a week and I love my job. It’s basically a socialist haven and I do my best to bring excellence to that restaurant learning many valuable skills and in turn passing them on to others. I work on myself physically, exercising and strengthening myself should I ever need to stand up and protect my loved ones. I’m even looking into joining a local rifle association and training the skills I might potentially need to use in the future since my country is fucking falling apart. One of the only things keeping me together when I get home is playing a fucking PC game on my Linux install which is only possible to the degree it is because of the efforts of valve and by extension, Gabe Newell.
Also, I’m not derailing the conversation so I don’t know how this is sea lioning. And I’m not simping for billionaires. I don’t think they should exist. I just think that valve specifically is literally being targeted by large corporations to hurt their image since they have suddenly become a major player in the graphics software and OS space. The FREE DEVELOPMENT of proton and the like is a threat to Microslop’s bottom line. And if valve were to go under my immediate happiness would be affected. So yeah fuck you.
Oh no, I’m not suggesting it.
I’m outright saying it.
But why?

its the politicians that are enabling this to happen they are supposed to do that, and to keep billionaires in check.

Precisely as much as my means allow, which is fuck all. What have you done other than simp for billionaires and sealion on the internet?
