What they did is wrong and immoral, they could simply just afk ignore it, why did they need to go that extreme, to firing even the casters who probably had no idea about anything in first place
My hope is ppl chant free Hong Kong in blizzcon, that will f8ck blizz and ruin their bending for china, if they want a piece of china market, they must learn they will lose everywhere else market

Blizzard folded quicker than Henry Hill...like a lawn chair
Revolution happens when they get outside support, yes ironic
an unarmed masses vs heavily armed government always end in 1 side, as someone who saw first hand how brutal a government can really be in the failed egyptian revolution, if literally every non-armed (or even with light weapons) rise up against government, the government can wipe everyone out, and no one will give a f8ck, specially china who has half of world in their pocket, including the strongest nation usa
Any revolution in last 100 year always had a way and someone to get them weapons, here in the WORST country on earth (also venzuella/yemen is serious competitor) zero nation had interest to stop the bloody coup d'etat, heck Angela Meirkel was crying on tv on human rights breaks in egypt in morning and at same night of that conference selling glorious tyrannical regime ammo and light weapons (don't get her wrong, she need money to buy napkins to dry her tears) that was used to suppress the ppl and kill them in streets
We like to fake the truth, but the world understand only 1 language, power, if u don't have power, no one will care to talk to u, no matter how right u are and how wrong ur opponent is

- They dont want someone to use their platform for political standpoints.
- Yes the casters knew what he was going to do, thats why they got fired, they even baited him into saying it.
- China is worth way more than a handful of internet warriors who have no clue how the world works
nah, but blizz will, bobby kodick is only greediest human alive, and while he will f8ck anyone to keep china market, if he feels he is forced to either china vs everyone else, he will pick everyone else
And that will send msg, Activision is still biggest gaming company in USA (with EA the favorite villain 2nd, even if EA doesn't even have half of Bobby game-hating quotes)

pls talk to me after u get burned alive, gut split open, stabbed, lose left eye, lose ur sense ability, see many ppl turned to corpses, a tank run over ppl in front of u, a baby get snipped in front of ur eye with bullets that pierce road sign poles (i assume those were metals) and failed revolution
and no, i exist in egypt, the WORST country on earth, apple has almost no market here
So i have quite a very bloody experience when i talk about how power works first hand

Man, fck Blizzard. What happened to this company?
They cite a rule that it is so ambiguous that it can be applied to anything blizzard doesnt like. Like they could cite that rule for wearing wrong colored socks if they wanted to.
And then they add a contradictory statement saying they support free speech and opinions. Its your actions that speaks blizzard, not your statement in regards to free speech.
Bailed on the reddit thread, way to many idiots over there.
A player used a blizzard platform to make a political statement.
Said player gets punished by blizzard for violating terms of use, however vague those terms may be.
And now blizzard all a sudden is the bad guy siding with and promoting hong kong's human rights abuses?
Get a damn grip, jesus.
A company did not want it's product being used for political activism and punished the offending user. Period, done. That's all this is.
this whole thing is stupid.
Well... shit.
To say 'doesn't make it right' assumes that allowing this being said would be the right thing to do. But it's not right either.
I don't think people who are supporting HK here really know what is up with the whole political situation to understand what's actually been happening there. We think it's about liberation and freedom and suffrage, but the vibe I'm getting is it's just people who are anti-China jumping on a bandwagon to support people who are 'pro-freedom'.
The context though would be like if liberals were protesting for Trump to get kicked out of office, and furthermore, for California to separate from the US. There's a fantasy element to the HK protests that are simply unrealistic, and being promoted by a certain group moreso than reflect the full sentiment of all HK people. We're not really supporting freedom, we'd be supporting radicals wanting their way because they can't deal with their own government.
I'm criticial of both sides here, but moreso on the people who are banding behind the HK protests as if it's something meaningful to them. Yet these people don't even know the full situation, they just using this reason to attack Blizzard or attack China.
