As if gaming companies have been unable to report illegal shit in the past… I really hope they don do it, but this combined with the recent Sweet baby inc fiasco, starts to feel like someone is tryimg to give SJWs a golden ticket to get ridd of people they don’t want in the hobby.

Go after actual criminals is fine with me. And I would like to think gsming companies are able to report actual criminals. Going after people for wrongthink, like not wanting SJW bullshit in their games is not fine.

... And it's Durbin. Of course. The first Amendment only covers free expression of ideas that I agree with!

Illinois is such a political shithole. You'd think after giving the country Lincoln, Reagan, and Obama, the rest would finally wise up and kick them out, but no...

Seems like a huge waste of time and resources to me, especially for organizations that believe serious terrorist threats are imminent. Then again, these are the same people who think that parents who attend school board meetings or Catholics who attend the Latin mass are terrorists, so par for the course I guess.

Gaming is a save haven to share idea's, people providing community servers will defend that at all costs. No matter what they do server owners will stand their ground, if Steam for example ever implemented mandatory filters the server will just be flipped to a pirated server.

I never in my life would have anticipated a time where the US government views Americans as their #1 enemy.
