      To be fair he probably didn’t come up with any ideas. Just approved the worst ones that were presented to him.

        That’s not the problem. The problem is him not doing anything about all the toxic culture and sexual assault in his company, causing the best employees to leave.

      How? Did he force people to buy and subscribe and endorse something?

      No. Idiots bought in, sucking balls purchase after purchase.

      Edit: gamers who spent tendie money are mad

          Agree. Like, it’s not water or transport. Just don’t engage.

          I don’t like some movie franchises, and that’s fine, I just don’t consume them

        Agreed, don’t buy the battle pass, or better yet, don’t buy the game if all you’re going to do is complain.
