This just popped up in a feed of mine, looks like an interesting project bringing retro games to new consoles. I guess I’m wondering what other’s think. Would you be willing to buy your old game again?

    That’s not at all what happened lol.

    Some colourful people got upset because she made comments about being excited to play Hogwarts legacy, a game they were “boycotting”. Said people then went looking for more reasons to be outraged and saw that she followed some people on twitter that they don’t like, namely “LibsOfTikTok” and Ben Shapiro, so started the “cancelling” movement of online harassment.

    She was then fired from her job literally for following some people on twitter, to appease the angry little mob.

    She said or did nothing transphobic. Being excited for Harry Potter isn’t transphobic.

    Stop trying to play the victim and get people cancelled.

      Just out of curiosity, sir or madam… have you quit drinking Bud Light beer recently? I’m just wondering if it’s wrong to cancel something if you personally hate the causes it supports, that’s all.

        It’s okay to cancel something you don’t like. I don’t support Nestlé.

        But there is a difference between a company supporting something, and an employee of a company supporting something. It’s not the same thing!
