[QUOTE="LordEntrails, post: 9220875, member: 6804070"] You can safely assume I've never claimed to be an authority on gossip. Cuz that's pretty much all this opinion piece is. And we won't know the truth of this lay-off until it is evaluated by experts in hindsight of time and information. Nothing coming out now has any of that. No one has a complete picture, or even a comprehensive one. It's all just emotional reactions. "Ooh, corporation evil, see proof!" Never maid such a claim. But given the successful track record of WotC/Hasbro it really hard to argue that they don't. i.e. they are in business, generally making money, generally growing. Let's see all the naysayers manage a similar feat. That's because we the public don't know more than gossip and a few individual points of view. Hence why claiming to know if this is good or bad, motivated by greed or anything else at this time is just BS. Sure, I get it, we are now a world of near-real-time information and the half formed opinions that come with it. It's the power and potential of the internet for world peace and justice for all. But until the masses get to the point where they understand they need to wait and evaluate events critically for the truth, all this flood of info will just continue to lead down the path of extremism and misinformation. (And none of that is helped by the algorithms.) Maybe. But as [USER=177]@Umbran[/USER] says it better than I, different people and different positions have different priorities and realities. I'm not anywhere ready to equate them, but I find it interesting how people can be so tolerant of others sexual and social differences, but so adamant their own views of right and wrong are absolute when it comes to evaluating corporate actions.
