He shared them a long while ago. I believe he said he was a libertarian at the time, and others have said the same thing about him. Who knows where he falls in the middle of the current postapocalypse, but he runs a major tech company and the few reports that leaked out from his bubble make it seem like he's... you know, a techbro. A techbro with enough mental acuity to do long term planning, but a techbro after all. Could have told you from the fact that Steam is pretty much a gig economy app at the end of the day.

But also, I don't need a politics purity test to buy shit. That can't be how we operate society. There needs to be a better way than that handled at the public level, even if libertarians like Gabe don't like it. That goes for Newell, Sweeny, Andrew Wilson and all the other tech CEOs. I don't align with any of them, I just need a strong enough set of incentives for the government to keep them in check.
