Love how people like you instantly come to NATO’s rescue, when Vietnam banning Steam should not ruffle the jimmies of westoids. Turns out, “government scrutiny” is bad when Vietnam wants to protect its native game developers, according to some people here. It is okay if Steam digests them.
What exactly do you think did “government scrutiny” mean by the above poster, an idea you seem to defend? It is meant to refer to the communist Vietnam government as authoritarian, because they refuse to let USA’s Steam destroy the indie game dev scene. NATO has everything to do with every single prominent USA or Europe based service or platform, which includes Steam. Steam spies on DNS cache of users for some mysterious reason too.
What exactly do you think USA/NATO has not to do with Steam and colonising the game dev scenes around the world? It accomplishes western imperialist proxy colonisation.
If NATO countries benefit from laissez faire market crap, it kinda does. Vietnam must have thought quite well about the loss of western market, when protecting its game developers. Vietnam is not a country that hates globalisation, but it will take whatever necessary steps for protection.
So if I publish a game on steam I am now a colonizer? If I am a Vietnamese citizen who downloads a game that hasn’t gone through “government scrutiny” am I now a collaborator? What if I am a Vietnamese game developer that has published directly to steam without giving a shit about whatever censorship my government is trying to implement? Should I be sent to reeducation?
Yep, this is the mindset I was trying to describe. Thanks for making my point clear. I have seen you around too much with your anti-communist politics, so I can see through your arguments, like this one where you describe Vietnamese government in a particular manner just because they decided to protect their country’s game developers.
The diseased western individualist leech mindset has invaded too many people for it to not exist in large groups (fediverse instances). Anglos act like one hivemind as far as some core ideas go, and they will push it at all costs. The white man’s burden is shouldered by men, women and minorities of Anglosphere alike. Fediverse overlaps with western diaspora, so it is easy to come across these specimens.
Sounds like the problem here is the “government scrutiny” not steam.
Ah yes so this is how NATO/WEF shilling works… destroy native development and make a country the host for western parasites to suck money.
Love how people like you have to bring in NATO into everything. As if it has anything to do with Vietnam banning Steam.

What exactly do you think NATO has to do with this situation?

I don’t think you have the slightest clue about what NATO actually is.
Because they have nothing to do with Vietnam choosing to ban steam.

NATO is a military alliance. Being part of NATO does not grant you any benefits in any market beyond perhaps weapon sales.
Being part of NATO has no meaning when it comes to game development, and sales, global otherwise.
So again. I ask the question. Why do you think NATO has anything to do with the topic?
Lmao you really have no idea what NATO is. You just use it as a buzz word

What point is it you think he made clear?
If they want to protect their developers. They would help them succeed on the global market. Make it easier for them to compete.
Government scrutiny means devs need the govs approval to release games, hurting their devs
The government scrutiny sounds like it is hurting the devs not protecting them

Did not know NAFO trolls existed on Lemmy. But then, some NATO/OTAN profile pic accounts exist, so no surprise.
I wonder if they know they’ve got nazifurs on their fed. Wouldn’t surprise me if they do and don’t care; but… I wonder if they know.
