Original Discussion[1]San Francisco police told Polygon that officers responded to Unity’s San Francisco office “regarding a threats incident.” A “reporting party” told police that “an employee made a threat towards his employer using social media.” The employee that made the threat works in an office outside of California, according to the police statement.
I don’t know who needs to hear this:
Unity sucks, but death threats are okay.
If you really want to stop shit like this, vote in progressive legislators. So we can codify the fact that corporate actions influence more ppl than just the shareholders and their actions should reflect that.
FTFY
Haha I think you a word.
Freudian slip or really passionate about video games?
You might wanna double check that one, chief.
Answering more to the spirit of the comment, just voting is not really cutting it. Even when progressives are voted in, most of them are too hesitant to defy corporate interests.
Of course, death threats for if a game is not as good as someone wanted is just ridiculous, and generalized death threats involving people who have nothing to do with the decision is a psycho attitude. But this? A disgruntled worker worried about their livelihood, directing it to the people in charge? People who casually find fit to destroy countless careers to get a little bit more money? I find it hard to blame them.
Sympathize with their plight if you find doing so worthwhile, but also recognize their response isn’t helping.
Would you rather change ‘but’ to ‘and’, or change ‘are’ to ‘aren’t’?
You’re gonna die!
But before that, let’s go see this unity, I hear she’s handing out good times.
