Just saw Boogie's tweets and I'm so sick of him. I can't believe this dude continues to get the adoration of the gaming industry.
"but it does set a precedent that would allow someone to make that kind of decision based on politics further down the road and thats [sic] scary"
Please, Boogie. It's a copyright issue. In this case, Campo Santo owns the copyright to the game and PDP is not allowed to just stream the game, it is a right given by Campo Santo that can, at any time, be taken away.
It's basically the same damn argument we make when banning Milo from speaking at college universities. There isn't any infringing on free speech, but by allowing Milo to speak, the university is implicitly supporting him and his "business," let's call it. Campo Santo does not have to have to support the obvious loser PDP.
Why are we jumping to defend this guy? Boogie tweets:
"I'm sure it was just a stupid mistake, one he regrets immeasurably."
WHY ARE YOU SURE OF THAT? As someone that gets discriminated against constantly, I'm guessing this kind of reaction is just an act of privilege and it's shocking to me, especially under the current administration, that white people can't believe that sometimes their friends are racists.
Lastly, calling out neogaf is getting old. It's obvious Boogie thinks he's so much smarter than the emotional left that get's offended when someone (with a primary audience of kids) uses the n-word.
I know there are bad people in the world. I know there are racists and antisemites and sexists. We have to deal with that, but what I'm sick of are the rest of us that try to defend them for no reason.
