Thousands upon thousands of people laid off in the games industry over the past year… Games journalism then: look at all these people getting laid off. Shit sux.

3 unionized journalists get laid off from IGN… Games Journalism now: KNOW THEIR NAMES.

Wish everyone was unionized. Except cops, I wish their union was destroyed and made by better, less terrible people.

Names of people being laid have been shared and many stories made public, what the fuck are you talking about?

There is no shift in tone. You’re complaining about something that you’re projecting.
