Seeing how nobody even knew who they were before despite organizing an equally large protest a few years before, yes. Liberal media was desperate to cover it up just like they did last time but they weren't able to. Just the fact Valve outed themselves as a racist company by refusing to stand with them is evidence enough that they found success, because before then they were a squeaky clean company with the PR to smooth over all the dark money shit they were profiting from on their platform. Did they end racism? No, but it was a huge step towards making people realize it was very much a real and ongoing thing. Their biggest failing in my opinion was not calling it what it was; a deliberate genocide.
