Seconded.

Regards: Game dev who cares about conservation and doesn't like chilling effects.

Agree or disagree, it won't matter. When you let gamers vote with their wallets, the answer speaks for itself.

I wonder what else we should just keep to voting on with our wallets?

Probably most matters of free speech, here in America.

I am saying that someone who wants incest porn games reinstated on Steam (the GGP commenter) should create that petition.

I’m not that someone; I don’t think Valve has any moral obligation to platform ”any content, as long as it is not illegal”. They have the freedom to choose what they publish. Petition away, see if anyone cares!
