  • Does it matter if they’re responsible anymore? We’re talking about companies that have become so titanically large and so obscenely rich that there’s literally no way to challenge them for any normal person. Not even to mention the extreme level of capture and Corruption of the justice system. Does Jeff Bezos or Mark Zuckerberg or whoever else we’re talking about have to worry about anything if at the drop of a hat they can just turn to an Administration that will sabotage any possible retribution?

    Even if she doesn’t get a direct payment per copy sold, which I’m not sure I believe considering you know her negotiating power, there are still benefits for her. Increasing the brand increases future payments. Increases her bargaining power later on. And I’m sure allows her more creative control which means that any trans inclusion would probably be nullified in future projects.

    Maybe it’s a good game, but at a certain point you got to nut up or shut up. Are you going to take a stand and boycott something or not? Yeah you miss out on things with your boycott, that’s the point. If you’re not willing to sacrifice at all, and we’re talking a very minimal sacrifice here aren’t we, then what are you even doing?

    Though why we are even talking about paying for it I don’t quite understand. There’s always other ways.
