Show Notes
A game that allowed you to play as an active shooter was pulled from the Steam Store and many on the left started praising Valve for doing so. But the game wasn't pulled for being offensive, it was pulled because the developer was banned from the service.Following this Valve clarified they would allow any game on Steam so long as it was legal and not trolling. Naturally the Social Justice left is furious over this refusal to censor legal content.But why did Valve do it? Are they really standing up for free expression?SUPPORT JOURNALISM.
