Jesus christ, chill the hell out. ๐
Who still writes letters anymore? Uh... A lot of people? Especially sitting senators to massive, multi-billion-dollar corporations? Would you have preferred they go on some shitty social media platform to write "ayo get your shit together fr fr"? Fellas, is it ~~gay~~ pretentious to use your position in government to bring attention to an issue? Have you never written a letter?
One of the reasons a neo-Nazi fuck just won the election is because these online spaces allow fascist rhetoric to run rampant. (Edit: probably also the general attitude that shuns literacy and intellectualism, like "writing a letter? how pretentious lmaooo") You're bringing up a nonsensical, extreme edge case to justify why action shouldn't be taken in 99.999% of cases. I also as a Hindu (a religion I'm sure you actually understand or care about) get a facial swastika tattoo and then post that as my pfp to Steam. Definitely how that really works in the actual real world.
Writing coherently about an actual issue facing a platform like Steam actually shows that he's more in-touch than most politicians. You sound deeply insecure.
This entire comment oozes intellectual dishonesty.
