You’re not wrong, the downvoters are just sad because you are right. Just takes one personality shift from Gabe to turn him from beloved figurehead to shitty billionaire and being reminded of that sucks.
If you just pay attention more than the average person you quickly realize that he’s already a shitty billionaire.
Steam underage gambling profits him directly.
He owns a yacht collection while his clients can’t afford to own the place they live in. How’s that for an environmental impact?
His reaction to George Floyd’s murder wasn’t that Valve should release a statement as he considered that problematic (source), instead he gave each employee 10k to spend however they felt like. Where I used to work we used to call that a “shut the fuck up”. Employees are complaining about something? Here’s 10k each for them to shut the fuck up. Hell, they could spend that money to finance far right groups if they wanted, Newell didn’t care!
Women employees with managerial positions at Valve? What women employees?
Valve takes a 30% cut but Newell is a billionaire, which means they could afford to take a much smaller cut, he could have hundreds of millions instead and the devs could have more money in their pockets.

“one personality shift”
That’s everyone dude. “Bernie Sanders is one personality shift away from being a Maga tech bro.”
Entirely correct. That’s why we shouldn’t put anyone on a pedestal.
Sanders doesn’t have control over (probably) thousands of the games you “own” or, if we’re honest, the PC gaming market as a whole.

I always get shat on for saying they do unregulated gambling, including to minors
People be really defending Valve
Pretty sure Musk has had a significant shift. Not saying he started out as a nice normal guy, but something cracked for sure.
We also spend dramatically more now as well and are on an unsustainable path according to the Fed.
People want more spending and less taxes though, as its human nature.
