@Baconstrip78:

I guess you missed the part of my post where I said I would bet money that more people canceled D+ because of this than for all the tweets combined.

Obviously neither of us have stats, but every time she tweeted there were a few dozen twitter people saying "fire her" and nobody actually canceling (mainly because as proven time and time again, the twitter complainers are people who amplify their numbers with fake accounts and retweeting each other AND don't actually spend any money on products) but when the news broke that she was removed, there was a big burst of people posting pictures of canceled memberships.

So, all the anecdotal evidence says you're very very wrong in your estimation of "costing them the least money possible."

Also, good job immediately dehumanizing me by saying I'm offended by not being able to shit and troll on people. Because surely, anyone who disagrees with you MUST be a shitty troll, right? Typical.

The problem, like 99% of the articles about the matter is that its filled with outright LIES and nobody is even pretending anymore.

"blatant anti-semitism"? there was not a single bit of anti-semitism in the post. Comparing people you don't like to Nazis has been done by both sides of every argument since WW2. Every time its done, the Nazis are portrayed as THE BAD SIDE. That is the opposite of anti-semitism. And as numerous people have pointed out, Pedro Pascal himself has done it!!!

"abhorrent public behavior and then crocodile tears and feigned ignorance has become an entire "brand" for many people on social media" - yeah but which side started that??? As a life-long New Yorker who has always been considered super liberal, im now considered one step short of far-right. that flipped in the last 5 years.

"This particular style of engagement relies on the tried-and-true bad faith argument wherein a case is made full of blatant and obvious falsehoods and misrepresented facts, dressed up in such a way to bait arguments from people who spot the issues and try to push back against them. The argument then serves as a social megaphone, boosting the falsehoods and deliberately misrepresented facts to bigger and broader audiences, stripping them of context, creating straw men for others to argue against that derail the issue even further." Yup- this is EXACTLY what you're doing Mason and Gamespot. Exactly what YOU'RE doing. You misrepresent the facts, and then you vilify and dehumanize people who disagree with you.

People also say that Disney is just doing this for "the bottom line" and that Carano is bad for business. I have no stats to back this up but I would bet money right now, that more people canceled their Disney+ after news of her release than after all of her "controversial" tweets combined.

But you are right about one thing Mason, and Gamespot, cancel culture doesn't exist. So when I stop using Gamespot completely for posting this vile article, and when I make sure that ANY website Mason posts for is added to the "do not give any views" you won't be able to cry about cancel culture, will you?

You and your allies are the ones who tries to turn disagreements into war. Its a war you WILL lose because people have barely started fighting against you.

Bye Gamespot. Its been real.
