Nobody cares about what you have to say, don’t agree with your point, or don’t find it relevant to the conversation so don’t be surprised when people tell you so. If all you want to do is people agreeing with you, start a community with like-minded people. I honestly don’t know what else to recommend you. Good luck on the internet.
If I have demonstrated anything in all my years online, it is that I am ready and willing to argue. But it’s not an argument if the other side is just saying words recreationally. That seems to be the case here, when no amount of pleading for specifics or alternatives results in anything besides ‘shut up.’
Meanwhile:
The actual topic remains that Valve is a monopoly. In what universe is that not relevant to this article about their largest competitor being so unimportant they can’t give things away? If everyone here takes that for granted, great… so why am I getting the same response as the many times people deny it? Even the meta discussion about phrasing is fraught and confrontational, regardless of what I’ve actually said. Have I offended you in some way?
Epic offering a game for free, only to be treated as advertisement for its sale on Steam, is the headline of this submission. What do you mean, what? Do you speak English?
I’ve demonstrated I keep notes on these arguments. Not that it seems to matter, when even the people who agree that Steam is a monopoly pile on, like I’m the asshole for pointing it out. I have asked you, specifically, what I should say differently, and your response was ‘well I dunno.’ Great! Thanks! How distinctly useful!
No one here disagreed with the fact that it’s a monopoly.
You very first comment in this thread was in a condescending tone as if to say we here don’t agree with you. Then we told you about your tone. Then you said you refused to be silenced due to tone.
Nobody is arguing here and then you started mentioning how others in other posts argued and told you to shut up.
Like what the fuck do you want? You came in here swinging and bitch when people engage. So fuck off.

What?
Besides, I think part of the issue is that you argue with different people as if they were the same people
