Evidently on a posting tear today. What happens when you're stuck in a Dr.'s waiting room, I guess...

While I have no problem with what Sweet Baby Inc does, I hate that all of the articles defending them (like this one) refuse to acknowledge a lot of the reasons why they are getting backlash. Like all of the tweets from SBI employees that either use racist/anti-LGBT slurs or advocate for the mass genocide of Jewish people or the fact that this whole thing started because SBI started a harassment campaign towards the creator of a steam group despite not having any information that actually proved that the group was in the wrong and also ignoring the fact that the group was created by someone from Brazil and claiming that the group was created by right-winged conspiracy theorists.

I don't have time to read the article, but I do have time to unleash a paragraph stream of consciousness that asks questions that may or may not be delusions on my part

Just out of curiosity, have you even seen any of the tweets that I'm referring too?

So I just read the article and I was right and I'll be editing my comment to reflect that.

Also, I did just re look at the tweets, they weren't calling for the mass genocide of gay people, they were calling for the mass genocide of jewish people. The problem was that the tweet was linked with another tweet where they used the F-slur, so I forgot they said "jews" and not the F-slur. I'm going to have fix that too.
