Blizzard didn’t say anything for or against it either. They sidestepped as the others did. But omg lol go ahead and use the other China companies, that’s how they are as powerful as they are today. Capitalism bows to communism. And it’s only getting worse.

But continue to whataboutism like blizz is the only problem.

Blizzard did not do that. They simply enforced a rule in the TOS. I don’t see how that’s so hard for some people to understand. The penalty was even stated in the rule book. /sigh

WRONG. I actually buy as many American US products that i can. I go for EU/S. Kor/Argentina etc free trade places as well. My Blue jeans although cost me about 120 bucks a pop because "Merican Made, but at least im supporting U.S. Workers. I buy Samsung (Korean ) and not Apple products ( which are also Chinese made) I am an educated and aware consumer/buyer of goods/products.

Actually they did. Their public response for China did basically that with the “pride of our nation” crap.

It’s not about supporting the people of Hong Kong either.

Sure just seems like people just getting outraged at Blizzard and that’s about it.

The guy he’s talking to looks so sad when he does the “I talk to literally no one” tweet.

No they said pride in their company but you do you. Denial is strong.

Company? Can you read?

The company that profited off you buying that TV is owned by the Chinese government. So yeah, that’s exactly what it means.

I know what sound bite you’re trying to get out of me there. Fact remains, nobody thinks about the CCP when buying everyday items.

wink

Glad someone caught that.

Uh… sound bite?
Ok?

But thinking about it sure matters when blizzard messes up, hm?

Nobody is thinking about the CCP when they’re boycotting Blizzard over this either, because not playing Blizzard games anymore will have 0 affect on them.

The only thing this does is hurt Blizzard, that’s it. If your goal is to hurt Blizzard, not China, then congrats you did it. You also did nothing to help Hong Kong, either.
