Gabe Newell (and other vaguely gaming related CEOs) called to testify before Congress on online radicalization Anonymous 09/17/2025 (Wed) 22:48:29 Id: 1dc4e0 No. 1761851
This is in response to the Kirk assassination. https://oversight.house.gov/release/chairman-comer-invites-ceos-of-discord-steam-twitch-and-reddit-to-testify-on-radicalization-of-online-forum-users/ The only two I understand here are reddit and Discuck.
>>1762712 No shit, Damn fossils are gonna try to grab for power most of them won't even get to see, the only thing I see that can be done is calling it out and be loud about it.
>>1761851 This feels like another one of those things I'm supposed to care for 48 hours until they shit out something new to care about for the next 48 hours.
>>1762022 he was a nigger a melanin enriched nigger
>>1763566 yeah it's the epstein files classic
>>1762540 >>1762525 From what I've heard, there's no actual mechanism to declare a domestic terrorist organization. All this actually does, at most, is tell Fed law enforcement the president considers them a priority. >>1762573 >>1762600 Twitch's biggest, non-bimbo, "talent" is a literal muslim communist who calls for gutting capitalist in the streets and he is never punished for this shit. A few years ago there was an incident where all the top bimbos decided to just straight up host full episodes of Iron Chef on their stream and everyone just got a slap on the wrist. Meanwhile V-Tubers are insta banned for too much skin.
So help me, if I lose my steam account over this, I swear I will write an extremely angry letter and mail it to my local congressman, and even put a frowning face in the byline. in Minecraft.
>testify before Congress Always a nothingburger it's just so politicians can wag their fingers and show their voters how much they care
>>1764959 t. fed.
>>1764959 You kidding? Getting dragged to Congress caused the death of 8chan prime. Fucking Watkins.
>>1766039 Alright it was dumb of me to say always, but I don't think any of these billion-dollar companies are in danger and I especially don't expect anything to come from politicians yelling at CEOs.
When was the last time a CEO was brought to get chewed out? I remember Zuckerberg was shat on for looking really awkward in front of Congress.
>>1766039 That was Watkins being a retard, the writing was on the wall. Congress didn't do shit.
>>1766039 Pretty sure that was cloudflare
>>1761862 You people should let your politicians know that you don't want to live in a dystopia.
>>1767654 Pretty sure it turned out they only pulled the plug because Watkins told Cloudflare to go fuck themselves when they asked him to keep better control of all the fedposting.
>>1767677 Please. Mr. Bateman, no more antisemitic remarks
>>1761851 >online radicalization AKA people being groomed by online communities into harassing others and committing violence IRL because status quo is fucked. Calling these people will accomplish jack shit.
Donald XxX_JewPuppet_666 Trump was the Kirk Assassin on Steam https://www.zerohedge.com/political/alleged-kirk-assassins-gamer-pseudonym-was-reportedly-donald-trump https://archive.ph/tnqXa >Alleged Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson used the pseudonym “Donald Trump” while playing on the gaming platform Steam, according to a Thursday report from Bloomberg. The factoid about Robinson’s gamer name came in a report that also revealed that the Secret Service is investigating the assassin, even though Kirk wasn’t under the agency’s protection. >“Agents are working with the FBI to study Robinson’s behavior and online activity, including his use of Trump’s name on Steam, as part of a profile they are building,” Bloomberg reported, citing anonymous sources. “The aim is to understand how suspects form grievances, how they select targets and whether their actions signal broader risks to current or former officeholders.” >According to Bloomberg, Robinson’s Steam account is 11 years old. “It lists an account that appears to belong to his partner as a friend. Some comments on the account were disabled shortly after Bloomberg reached out to Valve [the company that runs Steam] for comment,” Bloomberg added. The government has falsely linked assassins to Steam in the past. >Indeed, days after the July 13 assassination attempt against Donald Trump, Congress was provided information from the FBI that Thomas Crooks “previewed” his attack on Steam. However, FBI Director Christopher Wray told Congress weeks later that the Steam account in question did not, in fact, belong to Crooks. Wray admitted that his own agents were duped by a fake account—meaning that the FBI briefed Congress with fake evidence in the crucial hours following an assassination attempt against the presidential frontrunner. >“That’s a situation where in our effort to give real-time information, since we’ve provided that information, we’ve since learned that the July 13 ‘premier’ profile page on the gaming platform—it turns out, it was not the shooter. It was some other individual, who as a sick joke, after the shooting created the profile page pretending to be the shooter,” Wray said in response to questions from Rep. Benjamin Cline, R-Va. >“That person has since admitted to it,” Wray said, referring to the hoaxer. “Among the other challenges we as investigators have, we have people creating accounts pretending to be somebody when it’s not the actual person.” Wray did say that Crooks had multiple accounts on gaming platforms. “We do believe he was a gamer and that he did have different types of gaming accounts,” Wray said. The FBI has yet to release any information on Crooks’s gaming account. >The House Oversight committee has subpoenaed the heads of Steam, Discord, Twitch and Reddit to testify in a hearing about the radicalization of online forum users, including instances of open incitement to commit politically motivated acts.
>>1761851 I wonder if some of the retards at Congress are aware that schools and colleges are also part of the mess of indoctrinating people into radical Left Wing garbage like Affirmative Action and Critical Race Theory.
>>1769438 >I wonder if some of the retards at Congress are aware that schools and colleges are also part of the mess of indoctrinating people into radical Left Wing All tax payer funded, of course. Mark my words, there will be lolberts equate de-funding of this to censorship.
>>1761900 >Zuck and Musk Facebook and Twitter (under Dorsey nose rine beard, now X under Musk) has been in the hot seat since Obama Husseini, albeit at the time for "information gathering and privacy concerns." Plus given the troon lover is early twenties, he's probably had more of a presence on steam, discord and tik tok.
>>1773557 >WL Pierce Pencil neck, didn't even go out and lead marches like Rockwell. Just wrote angsty race war fanfics. Goebbels tier at best.
>>1773557 Andy Ngo leaked antifa's official larping 'after action report' it said the best way forward for them was to divide the right by bringing up kirk's stance on israel.
>>1761880 We're really doing this shit again?
>>1766039 8chan was killed by Watkins' unwillingness to continue hosting it, nothing else.
>>1774234 He turned it into a fucking FBI honeypot after the Christchurch shooting and all of that QAnon shit.
>>1774247 >after Hotwheels already fucked the place over with Sunshine.
Oh boy can't wait to see more games banned on stores because it offends the poor closet warmongering homosexuals pederasts in washington and their kike masters. cold war politicians, kikes and protestants have been nothing but a pain the ass for the last 70 years.
>>1774801 Those 3 things have been problems for way longer than 70 years
>>1761851 There's a lot of tranny groups on Steam, which has acted as a lowkey area for degenerates ever since Valve decided they wanted the Trooncord audience back in 2018 when they revamped how group chat works.
>>1775347 And furry groups, and grooming groups, and ERP groups, etc etc. Just like discord!
>>1761851 All part of the same spectrum of mental illness
>>1774247 I thought 8chan was turned into a CIA honeypot but it was 4chan who had a ton of FBI agents moderating it or something.
>>1775473 Something awful was the site that had actual confirmed glowniggers and state department employees using it.
>>1775473 there were no gov emails, only edu according to the sharty boy

>>1762512 I would love if this made them enact harsh restrictions on those four platforms, anybody who uses those platforms and says ANYTHING personal is fucking retarded when they don't have to although steam would be insanely based if they doubled down and went "actually fuck you niggers we're implementing our own form of end to end encryption for our users direct messages" I doubt it though.
