Someone on bluesky said they're "beginning to suspect" I'm "on the right wing pipeline" because I hate Gabe Newell and his armada of megayachts.

@eniko the right wing, famously yacht-adverse?
@0xabad1dea famously!

@eniko “I hate the billionaire guy owning Valve and who is a well known libertarian.”
“Wow. You must be from the right or something.” -

@eniko I apologize on behalf of that idiot
-
and they're complaining now that i "organized a dogpile"
i didn't quote their post, i didn't boost their post or mine, i literally just *fucking replied* saying it was hurtful and that i should get an apology, because it was and i should
and other people saw it cause it was *in fucking public* and they thought they were as full of shit as i did
@eniko public speech, public consequences, if you didn't want that you should send a dm (personally i'd ignore that though)
-
@ct publicly stating you suspect someone is a reactionary "on the right-wing pipeline": not harassment, perfectly acceptable
replying to that going "uh wtf that's so hurtful i want an apology": definitely harassment, not okay, dogpiling
Booo to their foolish absence of logic.
I hope something unusually nice happens for you today to balance it out!

@eniko defending a billionaire is crazy

@fireborn thank you

sorry, i dont mean to bring bluesky drama over here, i'm just very hurt and shocked
@eniko Sorry to hear that, bsky is a hellhole and I understand how you're feeling in this situation.
I recently got into some hot water over there when I asked "what is it about Florida that attracts shitty people?"
They were very quick to assume I was taking shit about the state and people who live there, and it took me some time to realize their response was conditioned by other folks actually saying and doing that in bad faith.
Bsky is no better than pre-Elon Twitter in many ways...

@eniko solidarity. Fuck him and his fleet of boats. He probably has a boat parked next to zuck's here in Seattle.

@eniko You might get a kick out of the "controversy" around the creator of "The Amazing Digital Circus". The TL;DR is her (Gooseworks), her show's fandom is toxic as fuck, literally hating on her for some of the stupidest reasons.
I was about to suggest just watching any YT video on the subject, but then I remembered the number of stupid YT videos (and BlueSky commenters) are the problem.

@patrick_h_lauke @eniko the number of them who waited until it was fashionable before leaving the nazi bar (for a place made in the nazi bar's image, by the same guy) would have put me off it for life.
If it hadn't already called itself fucking "blue sky", like the most mindless hollow corporate-dipshit-speak anti-language phrase you could have thought of
@sinvega @patrick_h_lauke @eniko you have so eloquently put into words my exact feelings on the matter.

@foxyoreos @eniko Imagine thinking the man deserves all that money when he won't even invest in proper moderation and harassment prevention for Steam.

@jedimb @foxyoreos @eniko I have lost the count of openly nazi accounts, with swastikas and adolf and other famous nazis names and pfps and all the hearts of iron 4 icons i've reported. They're still there.
They aren't even big accounts, it isn't like "oh but we would lose a huge customer", they tend to have less than a dozen paid games.

@eniko he wants to make sure you're fully aware of what a huge pile of shit he is.
-
@eniko maybe they assume by default that Gabe is progressive because he isn't famously a shithead? Maybe the bar *is* that low.
@fabiosantoscode @eniko it still takes a huge leap to jump from that to «you're right wing if you dare to criticize him»

@eniko
wait, when I buy something from someone, they’re legally prohibited from dunking on me? -
@eniko I'm staring at the screen for so long because of that... I don't know if I am just misremembering, but didn't liberals used to also have this type of reaction regarding elon musk before he became THE neonazi "poster-child"?
@passocacornio @eniko he sure had plenty of liberal supporters because «electric car!»
