There’s no way you wont see coverage of any protests that happen, it’s gonna be all over gaming news websites and on youtuber channels

Ah yes the uneducated are here to try to ruin the day for people who spent 100s of dollars and travelled across the country, perhaps even across the world.

The protesters probably spent same. And it would seem they’re better educated than you since they understand politics and organised themselves to do this.

The idea that protesters are uneducated and unwashed hippies is just a way to keep you in line and stop you from joining them.

Because we should totally diminish people spending their money on moral principles and human rights over mindless consumerism and unquestioning fanboyism … how “uneducated.”

The protesters are not educated at all, as the people they are trying to get the attention of are not going to see it. I think the whiny protesters who will be at blizz con should be looking a little closer to home before trying to tell other nations how to live their lives.

As long as they don’t attack the devs and/or ruin other Blizzcon attendee’s experiences I really won’t care.
Will be entertaining to see how Blizzard deals with it though.

Oh the good old ‘they’re protesting in the wrong place argument’. Like coverage of it isn’t global. If you’re protesting against a particular company’s stance on the right to protest, then there are in fact few better places.

They seem to be more aware of their rights and how to exercise them than you are. So that strikes me that they absolutely are educated.

Uneducated? Are you suggesting that they need visit a re-education center.

You do understand that people can be concerned with more than one thing at a time, yes?
