Steam was founded on the concept that piracy was a service problem, not a price one.
Steam had best remember those roots. People are willing to pay, and to pay good money (as proven by Steam itself), for a reasonable gaming platform that shuts up and distributes games. But they're also quite willing to engage in other platforms should that one no longer be a service they may freely enjoy.
The ADL, the SIC, and the CIA can winge all they want about it, there's no illegal content. And if there's nothing illegal, they can fuck off. It's a platform (in the regards of operations as to what they're complaining about), not a publisher. You don't go to the phone company to try to make them curtail "hateful content".
They don't care. They'll twist laws, conjure new ones, use unelected governmental beaurocrats to pass edicts, and use all manner of social pressure to stamp out ideas, words, actions, and people that are dangerous to them and their scheming.

That's antisemitic conspiracy theory
