oh awesome thanks. I can give you my name and address if you want to go ahead and donate in my name. also I am broke as fuck so you can do that for me too.
and let me know when you want me to start organizing stuff in my neighborhood with the time i don’t have. you’ll have to come and take over my responsibilities too.
I’m not judging people by stating that certain strategies don’t work.
It would be judge-y if I stated that they were stupid for believing such a thing. Which was not my intention at all.
Not buying a game is by definition inaction. It’s not the fault of the people that this is the only way left for them to “protest”. But as I said: it’s also not a moral imperative to do anything, if you’re not able to.
Why do you care so much about someone deciding not to buy a game as a result of this? I would say if someone who planned to buy the game decided not to because of this it makes an impact on that person.
That person gets asked by a friend why they didn’t pre-order. they tell them. that friend who didn’t know now knows. it spreads.
you are not the judge of what is and isn’t impactful. or what does and doesn’t matter.
How does that signal reach Take2? How will Take2 know that these sales that will not have happened were due to their union busting?
When will those people “cave in” and simply buy the game whenit’s been released for 4 years on discount? These things don’t work without a PR campaign. I don’t make the rules. I’m sim’ly the messengere
Your dismissal is duly noted. As well as the fact that you didn’t address my objections and we’re having different interpretations of what “idealist” means.

Edit: You asked how to help and I answered. Were did I state that it’s a moral imperative to help if you’re unable to?
my point was that you are judging those who wanted to help as not doing enough. not being good enough.
not everyone can dedicate time. they’re not wrong for wanting to help and not being able to.

you seem to be a messenger for your own opinions and nothing else.
and your methods don’t make you righteous or just. all it shows is that you’re a very loud soapboxer with an idealist take on the situation.
