I know that a lot of people have been focused on Brandon's willingness to be on Colin's new show/podcast, given Colin's political and personal comments that have offended many, but I feel as though people are kinda missing the point. For the past 2 years (and even earlier if you include Gametrailers post Viacom), Easy Allies has been a community of overwhelmingly positive discussion about video games. While never afraid to be critical, the gentleman of Easy Allies have always set out to be respectful of others and loving of others despite varying opinions. I do not think that Brandon wanting to be on Colin's show is in contradiction with the Allies core values and beliefs. Honestly, to me, it shows that Brandon is more than willing to have conversations with people he may not always agree with, and is not afraid to give love and respect to those who do not deserve it. These values have been a part of the Allies from the beginning and played a huge part in why I backed them, and will continue to do so because I trust their judgment.
Another important point worth noting: The Allies are always listening to feedback and they take criticism way better than most in the industry. After the latest Cup of Jones went up, Brandon tweeted that he was listening to all of the feedback and taking it very seriously. He could very well decide to not go on Colin's show because it would hurt people of the community he and the rest of the Allies value deeply. To me, this openness to discussion makes Easy Allies who they are, and I think that they have stood true to their values more and more as time has gone on.
