These are the thoughts of the man they are championing. He was not a good man. He was not even an average man. He was a wedge between you and your fellow Americans. We should all strive to live a life that actually brings us together as humans instead of ripping each other apart.

Who are the ones really celebrating his death? The ones that thought he was an asshole or the ones that are using his death in every way possible to push their own personal agendas? I betcha in private these people are laughing their asses off and being waaaay more disrespectful than any of us have been.
To prevent future radicalization and violence, the CEOs of Discord, Steam, Twitch, and Reddit must appear before the Oversight Committee and explain what actions they will take to ensure their platforms are not exploited for nefarious purposes
In other words, explain what you'll be doing to add censorship to your platforms.
They really could not have picked a worse demographic to try that on. Not only do online gamers despise censorship and policing, their vocal minority is known for being extremely toxic and unrelenting. The icing on the cake is that a good number of them are right-wing, too.
Have fun dealing with the shitstorm you're about to create!
We're about to see even more groypers assassinating political figures if they manage to put their greasy censorious thumbs on it.
I'm really not sure why Reddit is on that list. They were already censoring everything anyway all for their IPO.
The only one of those I really expect to show censorship resistance is Steam. And of that, I'm very curious if they're going to see repercussions from it.
Yeah, this is not a normal thing to do and clearly another way to try and make anyone who isn't MAGA, look like a criminal.
I'm sure they will find the majority of the hate speech is from right wing extremists, but then they will not post the research, or they will do their best to hide it from public view.
The administration has zero intention of being honest and helping society, so i really hope none of these CEO's do anything to coddle the crybabies in office. Let them cry themselves to sleep.
It’s too late. They will all capitulate out of fear. Democracy is dead.
Somehow I view this as just leading to GabeN never setting foot on US Soil again and living out his days between New Zealand and his yachts.
Like, I like Valve and Steam a lot. GabeN is libertarian as fuck (which is a lot of the problems that make Steam moderation non-existent) and has more money than many small nations. This IS asking Ron Swanston to deal with bureaucrats and idiots.
I really hope he just moves Valve to NZ. That way I could spend money on Steam again without feeling dirty.
Good job steam isn’t a company.
I really hope these people stand up with moral integrity and actually mention far right radicalisation.
Ah, yes, go pick a fight with groups of people who literally would burn down entire platforms before getting censored. Good luck.
But of course not Twitter or Facebook, where Russia pays money to radicalize people
That screenshots NEEDS more not random CAPITALIZED WORDS to make SURE that you know what THIS IS ABOUT
Don't you just love to read TRUMP STYLE messages?
Steam will be shocked to find out that they have fourms but unsurprised to learn their fourms are a fucking cesspit.
The only one I care about is steam. And the others I know will bend the knee because their policies have already been heading that way, thats why I’m not on them anymore
“The politically right wing motivated assassination of Charlie Kirk claimed the life of a husband, father, and American Nazi
I couldn't agree more.
Right answer: LOL get fucked Predicted answer: We will do all the censoring you ask for and turn over all the records for users without even being asked, ensuring maximum impact to users who have nothing to do with this while gun-toting assholes continue to shoot up schools unabated because this is America.
For decades, we've had a question live as a meme of misunderstanding and yet, it's exactly the question this committee should be asking now instead: "who is 4chan?"
Who knew that the Twitch CEO was actually the blonde bearded guy from the memes? TIL
