What does Trump have to do with this thread? There's already a thread dedicated to that kind of discussion, so bring it over there.

Just to be clear is this a mod warning to not talk about political preferences in a thread about buying or not buying a game based on political preferences ?

The comments above related to the president or fans of him is directly on topic of this thread, unless there is another thread directly related to buying games based on the creators being supporters of Trump would you have a link to said thread?

If you read some of superchunk's comments, for example, they're not on topic. Just because politics is involved, it doesn't mean it is completely fits in the discussion. It's less related to buying, refunding, or boycotting games for political reasons and is more of how much he hates Trump and Trump supporters.

I guess the talk of disdain for the person as a whole does sort of undermine the thread, I'll be honest and say I've not seen his other posts related to Trump nor normally raise to Trump hate/support comments in general as I feel it's all wasted energy, he is what he is at the end of the day, disliking the lil orange fella doesn't do much.

My main point was corrected above, but just that if you want to avoid anything related to Trump you'll need to find a game worked on by less than 3 people in the states :D one of the 3 would likely have voted for him based on the correction I got by Jweincom above, but I'll shup about Trump now, sorry for the derailing here and thanks for the clarifying.
