Not in the slightest in this case. He very much did say that live and also still stands by what was said. The idea that you need someone to walk you though it to such a degree is odd and likely is because you are looking for a particular reality that you can agree with.

Like I could understand if we were talking about some event that had opposing claims here, but in this case the man in question does not even deny that was what he said. And if you want "the context" more then what was on that clip, the live stream was just that he was made aware of the campaign and this is how he reacted.

This initiative can eat my ass, the whole thing. It can eat my entire ass

Its like the most used clip in almost any coverage of this, I don't get why you keep asking as if its not a well documented thing.

...he’s dealing with such fall out over an opinion in an industry he’s active in...

Congrats to him, he is now the poster child of everything everyone hates about the industry. And its all due to his own ego centred actions.

Please stop felatioing the game companies. The issue everyone had on his hot take is that by the very same logic no regulation on any company is warranted, and that is insane. Its just more of a bad industry wanting to have their cake and eat it as well.

The solution to this mess is not simple, but it will not be to hide things that may offend people, to stick heads into sand or control speech.

The very idea that someone needs to follow a "non-offensive" guide in political commentary is very much a part of how the us is in the mess it is.

No rules it seems as well. That one image has more "boring dystopia" in it then most feel good news stories.

Wait, "alamy" claims ownership of the picture?! As in monetizing the fucking Holocaust!?

Oh yeah, but watching this from outside is leading me to believe that there is no unifying force in the usa. Also it seems every american thinks that they are in the majority and that someone will swoop in anyday now.

Really at this point the damage is done. Rule of law is gone, international relations permanently damaged if not out right destroyed, literal masked goons on the streets picking up undesirables and 1000 other indications that the usa as a nation is done (at least as a free one).

Well its here, and I can hope/dream its the dumb type of fascism that collapses under its own weight.

I will be a touch disappointed if there is still a us in 2028.

I don't think that the us is worth saving at this point.

The scenes were emblematic of the crisis gripping the small, Oregon mountain town of Grants Pass, where a fierce fight over park space has become a battleground for a much larger, national debate on homelessness that has reached the U.S. Supreme Court.

The town’s case, set to be heard April 22, has broad implications for how not only Grants Pass, but communities nationwide address homelessness, including whether they can fine or jail people for camping in public. It has made the town of 40,000 the unlikely face of the nation’s homelessness crisis, and further fueled the debate over how to deal with it.

“I certainly wish this wasn’t what my town was known for,” Mayor Sara Bristol told The Associated Press last month. “It’s not the reason why I became mayor. And yet it has dominated every single thing that I’ve done for the last 3 1/2 years.”

Officials across the political spectrum — from Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom in California, which has nearly 30% of the nation’s homeless population, to a group of 22 conservative-led states — have filed briefs in the case, saying lower court rulings have hamstrung their ability to deal with encampments.

 

I keep seeing more and more news that fits here.....

 

Well today has been rich in boring dystopic news.....

 

Dang it, why are they not working more jobs?!

Definitely has nothing to do with sky-rocketing food prices in our capitalist hellscape.
