PlayStation boss Jim Ryan sent an email today asking his staff to "respect differences of opinion" on abortion rights.

He's doing that thing that conservatives like to do where they try to downplay their opposition to civil rights by framing it as "just an opinion"
They took a stance for womens choice. As everyone should. But not Jim.
Fuck him for not supporting people's rights.
How dumb do you have to be to send out this email?

Normally when this place dogpiles on Jim it's pretty cringeworthy and making mountains out of molehills.
But this idiocy from him is some grade A bullshit. Massive foot in mouth moment.

That really doesn't have anything to do with what I said, unless you quoted me by mistake
Or if that's too difficult a task, at least just fire him.
Awful. "Very bad people on both sides" vibes. It's 2022 and human rights are a point of contention.
Also first saw this pop up on Reddit. The locked thread itself saddens me the state of discourse around this.

It's amazing how all of his controversies are all self-inflicted too.

He may be good at business and maybe that is why he got the job, but yeah, there are few CEO's that shoot their own foot more than Jim. The problem is that this sort of CEO is not good for the brand. The brand can take some hits, but this is just too much. At what point does Sony just have to step in and just get rid of this powder keg of incompetence
My guy really hit send on that and thought it would go down differently? Sometimes I think Ryan gets too much shit for saying harmlessly dumb things, but this isn't harmless and so much worse than "dumb." Genuinely reprehensible and the kind of thing a satire of a horrible boss in a sketch show would send out.
You're right and people in this thread are expressing their opinions on this topic.
Get over it
Congrats on being among the first to defend him.
You can fuck off too
