A hypothetical question: If I buy something that Michael Moore creates, am I not supporting Michael Moore and the causes he represents? What if Moore came out with a fantastic video game that everyone was talking about? Would he not still be the same person with the same anti-American agenda? He is not anti-GOP, he is anti-America...and his beliefs have very little to do with politics and a whole lot to do with a skewed mindset and distorted view of the world. If I knew a product was putting money in Michael Moore's pocket and there were other choices available, I would have a decision to make about which product I'd buy and why.
I've never heard of this person who created Halo, but if someone creates and sells a product to openly promote and finance a political/personal agenda I disagree with and a belief system I find dangerous, why would I want to put money in their pocket?
We have no way of knowing what the politcal leanings are of most game manufacturers. Or if we did have a way to find out, it never occurred to me to ask before.
This creator pretty much put his beliefs on the label. Once the consumer learns that the proceeds from the sale of Halo products will finance a radical anti-American agenda, the purchaser is now confronted with a choice, like it or not. This announcement/article is as good as a warning sticker on the package.
Minor problem. He's not the creator of Halo. He's just one of the grunts on the project. It's like saying that you won't shop at a store because the accountant is a jerk.
