Ever looked at an advert? Bought a computer? Eaten food produced by a multinational chain like Nestlé? Almost every action you take will involve generating money for an absolute shit. It’s fine (even encouraged) to let people who might not know that Rowing is a horrible bigot, but don’t have a go at someone for enjoying a fucking video game.
If I buy a Trump bible to “enjoy” it, would you say that is wrong just because I give money to a fascist that is hellbent on killing minorities? Would telling me off be punching down as well?

nah, they asked a question. it’s a loaded question for sure, but they asked a simple question. stop enabling.
What does this even mean?
stop enabling terfs. stop enabling punching down. stop enabling fascism. stop enabling ignorance.
I’ve seen plenty of “punching down” towards people who buy a game simply to enjoy it. It’s kind of happening in this thread.
ah yes, Gamers the MOST oppressed class of people.
bad faith argument that any sane person would be embarrassed to have uttered.

How? There are no good corporations. We are all enablers. There is no conscious consumption under capitalism.
That’s not an excuse to not even try.
