What you're describing is transphobic. It's a completely different kind of thing. This isn't discrimination.

I don't like this method of measuring a company's competitiveness with how popular they are with consumers. Just because MS can't cobble together a decent product that people enjoy doesn't mean that they should just be a

I’d add Rare and Mojang to the list as well. Rare for obvious reasons (kinect, etc), and people are finally starting to realize that most of the additions to Minecraft in the last 5 years have been kinda terrible.

Xbox is loss leading hard for Microsoft right now. Profits are down, console sales are down, and things on the horizon are looking not too great. If Xbox spun off, they’d go out of business within the decade because there’s no reason to o

It’s interesting that the website is considered far-right simply because it doesn’t ban far-right posters. The website isn’t explicitly for right-wingers, but by allowing them to post on the website that’s what it’s become.
