    I mean so what exactly are you saying here, because Cosby being a rapist wasn't a "well known meme used in the meme community" there is no chance that someone would make a Cosby rape joke? (Odd position since I've linked to a video where the writing staff of 30 Rock did just that in like 2010...

    I actually don't really know why they called it the Cosby Suite, lots of stupid friend in jokes have stupid stories. I certainly don't think there is any evidence they were running a rape room at Blizzcon, and I think there's a number of HR issues the lawsuit revealed at Blizzard but the "Cosby...

    Again, it was 2014 dude, I've linked to the article actually covering Burress's set, I'm not sure why everyone keeps getting the year it went viral off by 1. But anyway, you continue to confuse "this wasn't viral to the degree that I, a stupid person that knows nothing, knew about it, therefore...

    "No one can link me to anything not pure news media to show people knew about something." Dude you fucking know that people hear about things on the fucking news, right? Show me a non-news article about Biden's infrastructure bill. Oh wait you can't? So I guess no one knows about it? It's...

    I think Google had two CEOs for like a decade during which it made like $800bn in profits, so I'm not convinced it can't work.

    I don't think it matters at all, it's just silly to literally pretend that no one knew anything was off about Bill Cosby until Hannibal Burress's set in 2014, when the whole premise of the set was "go google all the shit that's out there." It's so much circular illogic it's almost like North...

    I would say if you actually did a Cosby rape joke the same time he was being accused of Rape on Matt Lauer’s show which was one of the most watched shows in America, some portion of the audience would get it.

    Well I mean I would not agree with what you were saying earlier which was basically before 2015 (which is not even the right year, Burress's set was in 2014 but it's w/e), it wasn't common knowledge. I would say tons of people knew about it, which means it's not at all unlikely some of the...

    I mean it was national news when Andrea Constand originally accused him back in 2005. After Constand came forward other women did as well. They were all old stories with no evidence to support them, but they got attention. One of the early Cosby accusers was interviewed by Matt Lauer on NBC...

    I don’t think they named the room the Cosby suite because they planned to rape people in it. But saying there was zero public knowledge that Cosby was potentially a rapist until 2015 just isn’t true. Maybe that’s when a lot of you found out, but it’d been in news articles and other discussion...

    I never knew Furor and don't think Furor/Führer was a thing. That being said last name Afrasiabi = Iranian = 100% guaranteed Antisemite, which is true of all Muslims and 75-90% of Europeans as well.

    It was just for one day. Note that for white collar workers a one day "walk out" has almost no corporate impact at all. When factory workers would do it in the old days, that cost the owner x amount of lost production and money he wasn't ever getting back. In a white collar job most likely you...

    WilmerHale isn't really a "union busting" law firm, that's Kotaku bad journalism nonsense. WilmerHale is a storied white-shoe firm, they represent any big clients with money.

    EQ also had some core design issues + a lot of its team got cannibalized over to work on SWG and executives decided to launch GoD completely unfinished which were major blunders worse than anything Blizz has done. Blizzard's biggest sin is it's just made the game tedious and boring, 2004-2007...

    For a long time the perception was Activision was undermining what made Blizzard "special." I think one thing that has come out of all this is maybe the realization Blizzard itself has internal problems that really can't be pinned on Activision, if anything it's like a company that just did too...

    WoW probably has enough passive subs from people that long ago forgot to cancel that it would remain the #2 MMO or so on the market for years just on that momentum alone.

    It's funny in that story your beef is with the Union instead of with Ford. Do you think that things would have been any better if Ford didn't have to work with a Union? You can look to autoworkers in the U.S. South who make like 1/3rd the wage of the unionized Detroit autoworkers and get your...

    State government jobs are not union jobs necessarily, many states don't allow public sector unions.

    A union has a similar role to an employee as a defense attorney does in a criminal case. They are an advocate/agent who acts on your behalf. Lots of defense attorneys go into court and try to get rapists and murderers acquitted, that doesn't mean defense attorneys are a bad thing. Your buddy...
