    GabeN is a CEO, rich, probably greedy and has a yacht, but by all accounts he isn’t a douchebag.

    I don’t simp for him, but he is different from most other billionaires in that he got rich doing what he loves and just kept doing it, and has kept his company on course on a mission that is, all things considered, pretty good for everyone involved (insofar a for-profit company is capable of such a thing).

      His platform supports and allows a lot of gambling and turns a blind eye to children being sucked into their trap.

        They have, since that post was made, banned skin gambling sponsors from being featured at all CS2 and Dota events: https://www.strafe.com/news/read/valve-bans-skin-gambling-sponsors-from-all-cs2-events/

          They get points for correcting, but not enough to warrant praise.

          “We’ve been promoting gambling to children for years, and not a single one of us thought that was bad until a Youtuber with a large following pointed that out to us. So we stopped.”

          Should be read

          “Someone with the reach to hurt our bottom line spoke up”

        If you read their comment and still thought they were doing that, you’re the problem here.

      He loves his yacht so much that he bought the yacht company.
