I really enjoyed that game, though I definitely saw why it struggled.

Well, they really don't like it when you call them a cunt here.

Parody is a protected form of speech.

Yes but to be fair, I don't care about my employer either. I think I'd prefer a simple e-mail rather than listen to someone face-to-face or over the phone blow smoke up my ass about how much they regret having to do this.

Sit down boomer.

They definitely are, though I don't know how even 4.5 billion dollars would help the issue any.

I think a lot of people are under the false impression that when a private entity becomes ubiquitous enough it somehow magically becomes a public service, because I keep seeing them spout first amendment claims whenever someone gets banned or demonetized off youtube ...

Read that again. “Paying employees is the top risk to the economy.”

That shouldn't really be surprising to anyone though. Employees are a huge expense.

If my rent goes up, or the cost of groceries keeps going up, that's a huge risk to my financials as well. Yet no one expects me to just roll over and take it, I'll look for a new place with lower rent, even it if means downsizing, and I'll look for lower priced food items or even cut specific foods from my shopping list. And this is while I keep on spending my disposable income/entertainment budget, and putting money into my RRSP/TFSA, and keeping money in a savings account in case of an emergency. Just because I have reserves doesn't mean I want to pay more for rent or food.

Companies are no different. Can you explain to me how it makes good financial sense when I do it, but when a company does it people freak out (even though they have no valid alternatives)?
