What did you expect anyone to do about this? Every CEO has a responsibility to make number go up above all else and will literally be fired if they’re not willing to do what it takes to make that happen. There is literally nothing any gamer can do to stop that. And you call other people naive?
True but also my point is kinda that you might as well try because without workers having meaningful leverage in their workplace, management will undoubtedly drive large corporations that impact the entire industry into brickwalls for the dumbest, most shortsighted reasons.
Yeah, I don’t want to discourage anyone from trying, but tech jobs are a long ways away from having unions be the norm.
I’d love to have one in my job, since the only kind of job security you get in software is becoming a specialist in some niche area where you’re the only one who knows how anything works, which isn’t exactly a low-stress position either.

Organize, unionize and have a militant solidarity with people doing the labor to make art.
“Gamer Culture” in general has a longggggg way to go in this regard.
It’s a rough world out there for people trying to unionize…
