Okay I'm stupid.
What's wrong with removing rape and incest games from Steam?
Edit: Thank you all for your answers, I was nervous to ask the question incase I would come off as a troll or ass hole or something and piss everyone off. They are very informative and have given me much to read and think about.
First, they will remove rape and incest, then they will remove all LGBT games, then they will remove all nsfw, and then they will remove all violent games and so on until only the games deemed acceptable by the US evangelicals are left.
Woah, so I know you're not saying rape and incest is part of LGBT, but that sentence kinda made the jump. How did we get from rape and incest to LGBT? Why can't just rape and incest be removed and stop there?
Conservative movements are not known for their restraint and fairness. They cannot be trusted to not abuse people.
Fair
The platforms do this when found or reported already. This is the first they came for (group A) then they come for (group B) etc. I don't think they meant that rape/incest = lgbt(note the comma in their comment), it looks like they are saying that when this is successful the companies will then get "complaints" about LGBT games and they would get removed, then the violent games etc.
Okay, yeah I noted the comma, but I guess the word all being in that sentence is why I could've misread it
