EA was awful before anyway hopefully more people will boycott
Oh no! A company from a country with no human values buys a company with no human values!
Couldn’t have happened to a more deserving company!
I like the implication that EA’s old ownership wasn’t at odds with progressive society
Yes, but at least the old boss cared more about money and shareholder value than political statements…
What political statements have the Saudi’s made? I’m curious cause they are also focusing on esports washing, so I wanna know what to expect with upcoming esports worldcup.
Remember that Jamal fellow?
That does not answer my question whatsoever.
He really did explain it, but here you go:
-
The media, in its many forms, provides information.
-
Jamal Khashoggi works for a part of the media and said something the crown prince didn’t like.
-
He used thugs and A FUCKING BONESAW to hack up that brave man.
-
There is no four, that’s it. It’s the same message Israel is sending journalist: “The state message is the only message, say something different and we’ll fucking kill you first chance we get.”
-
They are doing this with ICE and police in America more and more, so soon it won’t matter which totalitarian country owns which sycophantic company.
-
Ah yes. Much better to stay owned in America, where progressive society is… looks around hang on.
“Say hello to the new boss, same as the old boss.”
Honestly I doubt the PIF is going to micro manage EA to the point that employees feel it on the day to day. Usually they just sit in the board and contribute in high level management decisions like mergers, acquisitions and mass layoffs. Doesn’t mean there’s no changes, but it’s not a “Saudi company” now either.
People in glass houses…
Shouldn’t dismember a journalist?
At least not throw the parts around I guess
Should grow fruits and vegs
…should really get new houses since the solar radiation will quickly give you cancer, it robs you of your privacy, and it is very fragile and expensive to replace?
Doesn’t really roll off the tongue well, though…
I believe glass stops the harmful radiation? You can’t get a sunburn through glass. Truckers would all be pretty cancerous.
truckers often have sun cancer on the arm closest to the window/door iirc
Side windows are the bigger issue: ordinary tempered side glass can transmit a meaningful amount of UVA.
Windshields are apparently better than side windows 😲 MY ARMS!
No no, Islam is progressive you guys.
You dropped this -> /s
What do you mean? Women being forced to wear burkas is totally progressive man, get with the times. You’re supposed to hate Jews.
Do you also talk about Judaism under every tech post considering most of the big tech is in Tel Aviv now?
I don’t like Israeli, next question
