Again, I emphasize: you are talking about this as if picking a team.

Yeah, I mean, gotta buy video games from someone. Valve’s one of the least shitty corporations by far, so they get my money.

Vavle do not deserve excuses and hand-waving just because one thinks they are a ‘lesser evil’ in some other context; every service should get criticized a-la-carte.

Why don’t you think I’m open to a-la-carte criticism? I’ve expressed plainly that it’s valid. Do you want me to fight you about it or something?

They are not people, they do not get passes.

I would say people don’t get passes either; I could quote Stannis the Mannis, but I won’t.

But I’m not going to apologize for Valve in the same breath eather, and I am appaled so many commenters here are.

Are you ranting with me or at me here? I never “apologized” for them.
