I had some other thing I was gonna say but you blindsided me there; why the living hell would it be bad for Steam to shut down a community that makes list of games featuring diverse characters so they can boycott them and spread ignorant hate about their developers? Yadayadayadablahblah the first amendment guarantees the right to freedom of speech. But Valve aren't an arm of the federal government, so it truly would be fine for them to nuke these groups. High past time even.
Fuck the ADLs censoring of Palestinians but I gotta ask, what is even the relation here?
Because both the Palestinian communities and anti-DEI communities have legitimate core messages, and both have members that spread hate.
If you're willing to let any community get taken down despite them breaking no rules or laws, accept that it also can happen to the communities you support. It is as simple as that.
