How did I accept that those who built it were child laborers? If it happened, it happened, but me taking possession of a used laptop isn’t giving them any money so I’m not doing anything to incentivize that they keep doing it. I don’t really know what “accepting” it means. If JK Rowling died or was cut out of making…
But...I didn’t give my money to anyone employing child labor?
Also. You really should. See someone about that. Tic of. Yours.
In what way am I responsible for it? And why do you type like. You’re having a stroke every. Few words?
I got my computer used.
I don’t have a phone.
You can’t only support media by people you agree with, or if you could, it would at least be a very energy draining, stressful process that would just cause you more harm in the long run. But Harry Potter has been overshadowed by this stuff for a few years now, and most of the people who feel the worst about it are,…
I guess you’re right, no ethical consumption under capitalism means that we really should just entirely give up on the idea of boycotts and judicious spending in general. I’m gonna go get a MyPillow, they look comfy as hell. It’s not like I’m doing more harm than I was before, right? No ethical consumption under…
Can you think of any famous activists coordinating those campaigns?
Truly.
I could do without sea lions.
I’m sorry people are angry and aggressive over people giving money to someone who advocates for legal restrictions that directly leads to the suicide of trans youths. Thankfully, you’re spending your time angry about the right thing.
“What I’m bothered most by all of this hate and policing streamers and calls for boycotts is all of these people are so happy to jump on forums, TikTok, etc. and announce that they don’t support the game and anyone who does is a bigot.”
So that’s the part of the discourse that bothers you, and not the transphobia? Some…
I don’t think it was an idiotic thing done by a stupid kid. It was vague, yes, but should he have really expected this result? Is it that intuitive? The email was just comic hyperbole, I feel bad that he send it to the teacher expecting them to maybe get a chuckle out of it and they thought he was about to come in…
Why can’t we just consume product and then get excited for next products?
Yeah, but Nike isn’t a competing video game press event. It strikes me as if a store in a mall moved out and started running a kiosk in the parking lot. I know that’s not 1:1 because the building across the street doesn’t belong to E3 or the convention center, but I thought there were regulations addressing that kind…
I was thinking more because it’s blatantly leeching off E3. As the OP notes, they’re essentially taking part in E3 without E3 getting anything out of it.
I’m surprised it’s not lawsuit territory.
You seem really pissed that the guy has a bunch of other shady stuff in his past and that she is, at worst, guilty of lying about those things being new information to her. TJ Holmes could turn out to be the Zodiac and you’re gonna be like “How could Amy Robach do this?”.
Marvel has already proven taking gambles on relatively obscure characters works out, and Lobo is much less obscure than, say, the Guardians of the Galaxy were when they got their surprise movie announcement.
