‘Grand Theft Auto’ Studio Accused of Union Busting After Firings Union says 30 and 40 people were terminated. Rockstar Games’ parent company cites ‘gross misconduct’

BREAKING: Yesterday Grand Theft Auto VI maker Rockstar Games fired dozens of people, all of whom were involved in union efforts. A British union calls it "blatant and ruthless" union-busting. Take-Two Interactive says it was due to misconduct.

Here's the scoop: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

This is literally Nazi shit. This is what the Nazis did. If you support this, you are a Nazi, and if that makes you upset, then STOP BEING A FUCKING NAZI

And I won't play a single one. Just a conduit for art theft.

I just saw a website with a list of 20,000+ people who posted disallowed opinions about Charlie Kirk alongside the names of their employers.

Many of the posts aren't even inflammatory, but they were just deemed unacceptable by people in red hats.

Side note: People are getting fired from jobs that must watch videos annually about harassment, racism, and cultural awareness, but aren't allowed to say the hate Kirk spewed was unacceptable. Kirk wouldn't have been allowed to work at these places based on his own behavior. Weird

I also rolled my eyes at Trump ordering flags to be lowered half mast for Charlie Kirk.

Let me get this straight. He wouldn't lower the flags for John McCain, an actual WAR HERO, but he'll lower the flags for THIS GUY???

In the next decade or two, nobody is gonna remember who the fuck Charlie was.

🖤Remembering how in the 80s-90s, there was a massive effort to dissuade anyone from using condoms because the campaigners believed "the right people were dying" from HIV/AIDS

same shit with COVID repeating, and we'll see it again with the next pandemic in 10-30 years

Awesome! I'll give that one a view. I appreciate the response!

Getting back into modded Minecraft is daunting after so long away from it, even if I have put thousands of hours into it in my life lol

Do you have a semi-recent series aimed at less experienced (or rusty) modded players? It's been so long since I've played modded Minecraft so it can be difficult keeping up sometimes lol.

And yet Rune Factory 5 exists lol.

Was "profressional" intentional lol

It is amazing to me that Dems are pressured to water down their messaging in order to avoid alienating 'centrists,' but Republicans can round up and deport sobbing children without fear of alienating 'centrists.' Says a lot about what we mean when we say 'centrists'

They just needed to make sure you managed your expectations 😂

It is far from my favorite, but I put 150 hours or so into it so I didn't *hate* it. But I do have a lot of criticisms of it.

Same with Fates. Put 300 into that.

I was amazed when people were insulting and sending me character attacks when I criticized it lol.

We all have our tastes, it's all good.

Gasp, Israel lied about executing aid workers? The genocide nation lied? The human rights violation nation that massacred babies in respirators lied? The war crime nation that massacres journalists to hide the truth lied? The apartheid nation lied?

No way, who could've seen this coming.

$70 is going to be the Switch 2 standard seems like, with some games going to $80. I expect most other major developers to follow suit now if they were hesitating.

The clock was always ticking on the $60 benchmark. I'm only surprised it lasted this long.

$60 AAA games have been on borrowed time for a looooooooong while. Between inflation, and now the tariffs, this does not surprise me one tiny bit.

Even a $60 game from a decade ago, 2015, would be $80 in today's money. Is what it is.

This is Bambi. She loves flowers. Because just like her, they bring immense joy into the world while remaining impressively close to the ground. 12/10
