Imagine having so much fake outrage you uninstall a game
Then imagine that fake outrage will last until you’re bored with nothing to do.
The reality of these threads.
Just gonna throw in my bit. This reminds me a lot of Martin Shkreli. Company did a crappy thing, something they were well within their rights to do. But it blew up in their face.
He’s still the most punchable face on the internet. Think about that for a moment. The epipen price fiasco happened years ago, and he’s still hated.
This will be a very interesting week, and a very interesting Blizzcon. But not for the reasons Blizzard’s management thinks.
Did you actually read your own definition or are you just that bad at reading comprehension, because what you posted says literally what I just did but in more words.

Blizzard as a company is at a cross road and their employees are even more so.
You, Blizzard, really need to get on top of this and deal with it officially. The lack of clarity and promotion of China over freedom and human rights is clear.
Either you care and will address this or you hope that over time everyone will forget.
Deleting the topic is also demonstration that you can’t handle the truth.

Yes I did. Democratic socialism is not communism or socialism. How can democracy exist at the same time as communism like you are suggesting?

by state you mean people own everything, not some selected corporations or central banks? because if some “state” owns everything that is not much different from capitalism we have now.
Only if every single corporation was owned by a single monopoly megacorporation, then they would be similar.
To be fair (and I hate playing Devil’s advocate here) it looks like they’re just merging the various threads rather than outright deleting them.

Blizzard can either side with Freedom, or with Communism.
The problem is, so much of the “Do business in our country and you must follow our laws,” is pretty well universal. The rub is, that each country is as valuable as another to some, less so to others in time.
Blizzard needs to realize that their Customer is not at fault, he is hoping Blizzard will have his back.
The Corporate Suits need to know that, lawyers exist for a reason. I don’t expect China and the U.S. to go to war over this, and most people realize that a war is dumb, for any major reason, save self defense or defense of those in unreasonable suffering.
The suits don’t care; the people working in Blizz clearly do, as some walked. Gamers are a society unto ourselves; mess with one of us, mess with all of us.
So the question is, what is the “Good” name of Blizzard worth these days?
Not much, apparently.
this is pretty much what we have right now, majority of big corporations share same board members.
Devil’s advocate or not:

communism, in theory at least, is literally 100% pure community rule. That means democracy, shared everything etc
This is political fact
the USSR was not communist, it never left the socialist state that was supposed to transition into communism. China is the same way. It turns out, when you give the government absolute power, they tend to not want to give it up.

It is possible, but merging the threads also delete the volume of threads and thus make it look smaller.
Again, not a single word from the CEO or if WoW agrees that China should be protected over freedom.

TLDR for anyone
Gotta hide how bad things are. Don’t want the share price to sink before you find a greater fool to divest.

I hope was ironic and the entire post was made to slip this one line in.
So then how do you explain democratic socialism? You said it’s “government rule over corporations, ie. communism, but with democracy”? That’s inaccurate, and doesn’t even make any sense.
