I quit browsing r/gcj a while back after seeing someone get upvoted to the top of their daily discussion thread for their hot take that cyberbullying the U.S Army Esports twitch account is morally wrong because its probably run by some poor kid who was forced into the military by circumstances and surely itsn't responsible for what the military does. I think they compared it to yelling at a retail worker for their store's items being too expensive lmao
Glad to see its still the same den of faux-radical liberalism that it was back then

He Was Just Following Orders, you guys. :-p
I think they compared it to yelling at a retail worker for their store’s items being too expensive lmao
I mean, more comparable to yelling at an entry level marketing/sales rep.
And while I agree that's sort of a shit thing to do individually, I'd argue the world would be a better place if Sales Reps were more openly reviled and discriminated against than pimps or street dealers.
don't you hate it when the boss tells you to bomb a village and some 12 year old KAREN asks to speak to your manager because you "killed their parents." Like I'm sorry honey, but whose idea do you think that was?
Yeah it kinds of reminding me of Chick Fil A getting so much attention when realistically McDonalds is terrorizing the Amazon more and is more powerful. There aren't really good fast food corporations
I think it comes down to a question of how blatant it is. If you try to eat nothing that involved horrifying human rights abuses, you'd have an empty fridge. With games you have options hat involve far less human suffering and aren't inherently antisemitic while funding a massive transphobia campaign. I think we should also work on boycotting soda too though. One step at a time hopefully.
Just fyi JK Rowling was bragging on twitter recently about all the royalties she makes from Harry Potter merch. Stop giving her your hard earned cash. THERE’S BETTER BOOKS OUT THERE.
Meh. Its /r/gamingcirclejerk not /r/treatsforgeeks.
Also, I boycott Coca Cola because its a toxic sludge that destroys my body's ability to create insulin. The death squads stuff is practical incidental.
Might as well judge people on the model of gun they use to play Russian Roulette.

At the end of the day, no matter how not terrible their politics are, they are still g*mers.

I'm not sure how this could disagree with my point at all, which was that food has leeway entertainment does not.
