Is this even a real problem on steam or something some random dude wrote to his senator about?

My biggest issue was valve being slow to vac ban people bragging about cheating, which was almost exlcusive to TF2.

Seen way worse on reddit than steam for “hate” content.

It’s a real problem. I’ve seen forum posts calling for the extermination of minorities.
