Was the CEO doing this from a personal twitter account? Or did he use an account that identified him as an employee of the company in any way?

Odd, since video gamers don’t really have to worry much about pregnancies.

Uh, no. By purging anyone who disagrees with you, you are not fostering a more positive environment. You are, in fact, fostering a more Stalinist environment.

The old-time classical liberals believed in freedom of speech and freedom of thought. They would weep at how modern “liberals” behave.

It shouldn’t matter. I guarantee if he supported mentally ill deviants with external genitalia saying they were really women, he’d get a raise.
This only goes one way.

Very true. They only will support public expressions on the liberal side of whatever issue is being discussed.

“Or did he use an account that identified him as an employee of the company in any way?”

I say it doesn’t matter as others had already made their feelings heard.

““This perspective is not shared by our team, nor is it reflected in the games we create. The statement stands in opposition to what we believe about women’s rights.” “

Who decides what the “team” believes? It would seems like the CEO would have a say. If he sides with “the team” he could have tweeted all day long with no complaint.

They all, as well as I, will ultimately answer to the Lord for beliefs and actions. Perhaps Jonathan Edward’s sermon is in order. http://www.jonathan-edwards.org/Sinners.pdf

pretty sad state of affairs when you get canned for standing up for the sanctity of life!

The lies of evil people hurt the innocent. And they hurt the righteous. Evil is now so normalized, it has become a code of behavior. We watch as American descends into darkness. We must reverse this calumny now!

Ho can the majority of the country support this, but the only acceptable public opinion is to condemn it?
