The ones that actually boycott them are nothing of value lost
And the rest don't have the conviction to actually boycott
So you're right, it is funny

I remember when I was leading the Operation Rainfall campaign, there was two Youtubers that were completely against us. They would release daily videos about how stupid we were and how we only wanted to hurt Nintendo. Then Nintendo localized the game (xenoblade). Those same youtubers were sending us congratulation emails and thanking us. Fanboys continue to be fanboys.
My favorite is "get woke, go broke". I'm going to enjoy the fucking meltdowns over TLOU 2 selling and reviewing gangbusters.
I went on the website for fun and oh boy. The list has almost 300 companies. The best was even listing "Anonymous".
Anyone whose reaction to BLM is "unfollowed" or any other type of objection, rebuttal, or qualification is a waste of space, and no one should be concerned what they think.
They always rely on the perspective that they represent the majority consumer base when trying to flex that unfollow sentiment
Lol
Before every election ppl say they'll leave the country. They never do. How many ppl said they'd leave if trump won? And yet they're still here
If you feel the need to announce it on social media then you are a bitch and I don't believe you or you are a small enough minority that the brand/band/artist/whatever doesn't need to give a shit.
What is even more pathetic is that this person acts like this whole ordeal can be reduced to points for the "console wars". "Social unrest? who cares. I can spin this in favor of the company that makes the toys that I prefer"
Surprisingly he was raising money for Black Lives Matter earlier.
Was there any follow up from that chode after Nintendo's statement? Guess he's playing his Atari Jaguar now.
They also never had to deal with anything but privilege. They don't know (actually they don't care) what challenges poc have to deal with daily.
Why are those 2 companies singled out?
Havnt all the publishers pretty much shown some kind of support?
Also I'm sure companies really care about the 0.000000009% that don't buy their products lol they'll cave anyway, just empty threats.

Good, fuck those guys. The less toxic people playing games the better.
However, we all know these fucks are just blowing hot air. They will buy the next-gen consoles because what else are they going to do? Build their own?

Man you should see the Resident Evil BLM comments, so many racist snowflakes, just wish the social media manager had the courage to just reply and tell them to get fucked.
That crowd always just ignores it or accuses every company of lying about sales. Happened with MK11, RE3, FF7R, etc.
Just last Christmas, Coheed and Cambria released the video for their song "Toys", and it was a very anti-Trump cartoon. Now, Trump is never mentioned directly in the lyrics of the song, so this video was eye-opening for many MAGA fucks that were fans of the band. They're all over the comments, acting all sad and disappointed because their favorite band would be so "divisive" and "politics shouldn't be in music".
I chuckled at the time because those fucks apparently missed that the previously released song "The Dark Sentencer" was much more obviously anti-Trump in its lyrics. Again, Trump isn't explicitly mentioned in that song either, but I always felt it was anti-Trump (although I used to question myself at times, like maybe I was just hearing what I wanted to hear).
The Dexit Controversy really put that into perspective. Regardless of how you feel GameFreak dealt with the national dex in SwSh, that protest proved to be nothing but hot air.
Lol, they will be back. Gamers are probably the least proactive community out there. They talk the talk, but the sales NEVER actually reflect that.
Saw lots of posts like that for lego on their announcement x donation x pulling of police sets
Lol I always laugh when people boycott stuff, they usually come back

The bigger thing is that it just goes to show these chodes are a very vocal tiny minority that matter little in the actual scheme of things.
I reported so many replies to Idea Factory International, PQube, Crunchyroll, Square Enix, and Pokemon's tweets during the first day or so that companies were making statements. Just report, block, and move on since these people are not interested in a discussion.
I wouldn't mind having less shitstains playing the few online games I'm playing.
Too bad the crushing majority of those people are simply trolls who don't care about anything but themselves and will still buy the new consoles and games from publishers and devs that spoke up.

Games are their whole ass identity too lol, like what else they gonna do without em
Its easy for people like that to talk shit with their mouth, especially cause the fucking internet, but when it comes down to it they'll be speaking volumes with their money. Though it would be great if they back up the big talk and fuck off completely from a hobby that I enjoy and a hobby that I don't want any more shithead toxic people to in and around.
