I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

yes the Republicans are losing, but the Democrats are just losing slower. This will not change anything and they know that, they just want to keep appeasing their billionaire donors and giving little more than lip service to actually helping regular people!!!!!!!!
NEWS: The DNC is killing off its 2024 autopsy.
DNC Chairman Ken Martin has decided not to publish a public report, believing that a backward-looking document would be counterproductive as the party has started winning.

I want to re-emphasize, the guy who has made HUNDREDS of videos calling people in the industry slurs, calling for them to be fired, calling all the studios that are showing games "woke and gay" and has harassed multiple journalists covering the show over the years is at the Game Awards.
LOL hey everyone in the industry who is at the Game Awards, the guy who has made countless videos harassing you is there!

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

not that anyone's shopping at target anyway but I hate this customer service model so much. please don't have every employee try to engage with me while I shop. I promise I'll let you know if I need help.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

As the holiday season fast approaches, Target is urging its employees to add a little more “jolly” to their work routine.

Yeah and maybe that should include every single American with no exceptions??????
84m people in the USA have the equivalent of universal care via Medicaid and the ACA, with cost sharing reductions.
What if that AND what if billionaires just paid the right amount of taxes so the working class wasn’t burdened by billionaire money hoarding?

Seen stuff about resellers just getting in and making thousands of orders on Pokemon Center for Phantasmal Flames before it was even publicly up.
I am frankly sick of these people ruining the hobby. I honestly can't wait for them to leave. The sooner the better.
