Tripwire CEO out after tweeting support of Texas abortion law
- garmaine 5y agoRidiculous. Stating a political opinion on your personal social network account shouldn’t cause you to lose your job.
- slater 5y agoIt should be if it's hateful towards 50%+ of the country's population.
- garmaine 5y agoLet’s not abuse words. Here is the tweet: > Proud of #USSupremeCourt affirming the Texas law banning abortion for babies with a heartbeat. As an entertainer I don’t get political often. Yet with so many vocal peers on the other side of this issue, I felt it was important to go on the record as a pro-life game developer. Where is the hate?
- 1MachineElf 5y agoIt's hateful to a political party, not a sex. Claims that it's hateful to women are a lie. There are women in my family who are rooting for Texas. I hope the former Tripwire CEO finds a workplace that better suits him. There are a lot of game companies in Texas.
- garmaine 5y agoStating a political preference is not hateful to anyone. Let’s not lessen the meaning of the word “hate.”
- slater 5y agoThe hate is towards the women who used to have a choice, and now, thanks to an ignorant, under-educated minority, do not have that choice.
- walkedaway 5y agoIf only there was a way those women could make a choice to avoid getting pregnant...
- RedXIII 5y agoI've seen people get fired for a lot less than pissing off literally half of the customers.
- garmaine 5y agoThey make ultra violent gratuitous video games. Not to be too gendered, but I don’t think women make up half of their user base. (Also, not all women are pro-choice.)
- swiley 5y agoIt’s Mozilla all over again.
- gringo_flamingo 5y agoI love how the people in this comment section pretend to be educated. I hope you all die, but luckily I don't need to hope... Natural Selection will kill you first; I mean, how can you survive when you so desperately need a safe space. For the record, this statement was hateful!
- garmaine 5y agoConflicted as I want to downvote you for not contributing to the conversation, but want to upvote you for finally using “hateful” correctly… I assume that was the sarcastic point you were making?
- gringo_flamingo 5y agoIt was sarcasm, but I genuinely meant that natural selection will take these morons out. I was agreeing with you, and making a point.
