Wouldn't be a bad choice, regardless of what happens with Steam.

I can't tell if this is an ideological thing or not. There's a lot of states out there to vehemently dislike. But it's always this creepy strain of cold war torch-bearing that is so many people's pet cause. For the record, I think almost all states are on the exact same level of hateable, as a concept.
- auggierose 5y agoThat's wrong. Saying that two things are the same doesn't make them the same. So a comment like yours is either totally naive, or paid for by China.
- sovietmudkipz 5y agoThe Chinese government != the Chinese people. Whenever geopolitics separates artists from their audiences, it’s just sad. It’s in a similar vein of when total war is waged; the governments talk a big game but it’s the common, every day people who suffer. If you have an axe to grind be advised to make sure it’s targeted at the right people.
- coolspot 5y ago> The Chinese government != the Chinese people Are they controlled by aliens from the space? The government people come from the people, it’s same culture/mentality. You can make whole CCP government disappear and new wave of similar people will replace them setting same rules.
- ErikVandeWater 5y agoWhen did I attack the people themselves? It's the Party I said should be stood up against.
- sovietmudkipz 5y agoOn second read that’s fair. As long as we separate the people from the government/party!
