Person who wants to censor a symbol: “the other side is so fragile”

Nazi symbolism is part of a WW2 theme. Censoring history is a failure of society

Even when I thought they were bad I thought that was fucking dumb it's just a fucking flag and it looks fucking retarded to be censored

Is this because the ADL claimed Steam wasn't doing enough to stop le nazi uprising?

Gmod isn't made by Valve so doubtful

I was aware of that much. What I wasn't aware of, until reading the article, was that it's made by a giant faggot.

“I can see merit in the games here where you roleplay survival and war scenarios,” Newman continues.

Newman poses a series of issues regarding the moderation of Garry’s Mod games and communities, in a style that mirrors a question-and-answer interview. In response to some of these issues, Newman provides a very straightforward answer.

“‘They [Garry’s Mod players who use the game to celebrate Nazism] should be allowed to do whatever they want?,” Newman asks themselves. “Nope.” “‘Freedom of expression?,” Newman asks, as another hypothetical question, again replying with an emphatic “nope.” ... “This isn’t a loss of freedom. This isn’t an attack on your free will. This isn’t mind control. This is nothing new,” Newman says. “We have taken servers down before, we have blocked unsavoury activities, and we’re going to keep doing that.”

Who the fuck interviews themselves?

The author of this article has written about it in a very strange way

Ah, that doesn't surprise me. Formerly freelanced for VICE.

said it once will say it again, for the kids justifys unlimited censorship and is a disingenuious argument at best. this wont end with just one "aceptable" symbol thats how it starts, this will start a gradual degradement with no end, "violence" is bad so we need to shield kids from it, speach is "violence" so we need to gag players so kids dont learn the wrong things, imagry is bad we need to shield kids minds from it. rather then tell me i cant have steak put the kids back at their own table before jack thompson takes all the fun away as that is where this will end. a blob on a screen, maybe the blob actually has color maybe its just grey and the backdrop is just as dismal, a solid color. no depth as its not needed, to stop violent imagry all gameplay besides the chat feature has been removed, to stop corrupting the youth all imput has been removed. all you can send is pre aproved canned responses from a list. sounds like so much fun eh... they can stuff that fisherprice demolition man knock off future up their ass while singing i wish i was an oscar meyer weener.

Last I played Gmod servers were still privately hosted, is that not the case?

They are privately hosted, he's just planning to blacklist servers he hates so they will not appear in the server browser.

GMod is famously weird with its rules. The real life Gary will ban people then cry because they were banned. It's a great mod, but no one knows what to do with it except those who do.

they should respond by replacing all their nazi imagery with pride flags.

This is bottom tier trolling in spite of being the only instance I've ever seen which is funded with actual money

Eh, I like his stuff, it's funny and occasionally I like something "dumb". He does have some good stuff also like his (I think) second to last video where he points out some really bad people who run these servers.

Ok. I honestly don’t give a damn about Nazi imagery and all that, but today that will be banned and then tomorrow will be something else they deem offensive. So what would stop me from using my own private server?
