  • He is not talking to us, he doesn’t give a fuck about us. To the ones he is talking to, though, he has delivered a whole message where he is very concerned about a lot of very important issues and the journalist is focusing on a small irrelevant point. He got his discourse out, all of it. The people he is talking to don’t give a fuck about the journalist’s point. 1/3 of the voters won’t ever vote for them. 1/3 of the voters will always vote for them. This video just let him deliver a message to the remaining 1/3 saying “won’t somebody think about the children” and “dictators are sending their criminals here and you worry about crime data in another country.”. Yes, he got what he wanted out of that exchange. This https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xuaHRN7UhRo explains exactly the point.







  • She might not even have known that there is a different way of doing it. The guild had to tell her that she was owed money and benefits. That’s different from taking somebody else’s place. There is probably no entry process for newcomers to lean about better way, since it is not a company but a nebulous industry with thousands of independent actors in the game. That’s why the guild is necessary, it’s impossible to expect each new excited, clueless person with an idea to know and bargain for that on their own.

    The problem will persist as long as the exploiters can do it. You will never get every person to individually negotiate the right way.

    Game developers should also unionize at industry level. That way new developers would be protected right away and could not be exploited before they realize it. No need to dissuade them, although there probably will not be that many openings that often anymore.
