Not denigrating what they've done but it's like they're going out of their way NOT to say "abortion".
Good on em! Shouldn't have been as much of a fight needed from these studios to be able to do this.
Going to assume this has been ok'd by Sony.

Given how they all have the same exact design, this is very much company wide approved.
Perhaps. But then again.. reproductive freedom encompasses and acknowledges other freedoms that are being threatened by this court.

I think abortion is a very personal choice because each single person could have a diferent opinion... I think the most respectfull way to act in this things as a corporation is dont say nothing unless it´s directly related with your products.
I am sure there are prolife and proabortion PS fans and workers.

Fuck off with this "keep politics out of gaming", it's human rights.
Yeah how dare we spoke up when human right are being taken
Fuck you
typical mealy-mouthed corpo speak. no doubt the folks at these studios believe in the message but such a shame their beliefs have to be diluted as such
You obviously know this already but the fact it's a personal choice is why the only respectful thing to do is to support people's rights to have abortions.
When it comes to politics I would tend to say that corporations shouldn't take political stances. Our political systems would be stronger if corporations had less influence on it. However there are lines, and when those lines are crossed all people and organisations should stand up and be counted. What the US Supreme Court has just done crosses that line in the most obvious and egregious way.
You're right about abortion being a choice, and it's one that shouldn't be taken away.
Let me ask if the choice is so personal to you, are you okay with The System just openly taking it away? Get out of here with that nonsense. Nothing dictates a company should remain silent about it when it affects so many of their employess and fans.
Well, the prolifers are wrong about this, so it's good to let them know that.
Maybe those 18 days and 3 posts were plenty already. stop while youre at it.
Indeed it is a very personal choice. Which is why "unelected judges" (conservatives love that term) shouldn't be making personal choices on this issue.
Doctor's and patients should be making this choice.
EXACTLY. IF YOU DON'T WANT ONE, YOU DON'T GET ONE.
But DON'T take that right away from others just because you're "the other way" on an issue.
WOMEN WILL DIE because of this.
Bolded the important part. It's a choice and that its being taken away.
Also Get the fuck out.
That's the fantastic thing about this discussion, if you're pro-life, you can choose not to get an abortion. If you're pro-choice, then it's your decision. Don't make decisions for others.
The fact that corporations or people need to make statements to reinforce that freedom of choice is abhorrent at this point.
Most people that are "pro-life" are only pro-life pre-birth. The more people and organizations that openly oppose the reduction of rights, the better.
Yeah, and unfortunately some of those opinions are shitty and lead to oppressive laws. There is no equivalence between opposition to bodily autonomy being enshrined in law by people who want control over others, and individuals wanting the freedom to make their own choices over their own body. So framing it as an equivalence is bullshit.
I agree with you, that's why each individual should be free to choose for themselves.
