PanzerFranzz: I have a source by way of inference:

The study points out that the 8% of the US population that calls themselves "progressive activist" are also roughly similar to the 7% of the country that doesn't think political correctness has gone too far in suppressing free speech. The study also states that 80 percent believe that “political correctness is a problem in our country."

We need some assumptions for this to work, but if we assume these attiudes are similar throughout the west (probably a more generally pro-PC in regions like Scandavania, England, France and a bit less in generally anti-PC regions in eastern Europe) and if we understand "progressive activist" to mean the sort of person who is happy to use activism to suppress free speech and finally if we assume that GOG's customer base is roughly similar to the general population then we can infer that approximately 80% of their customers would be against the handling of Linko90 (insofar as what we do know: he was harassed by progressive activists and GOG took no public actions or even make a statement to defend their employees right not to be harassed) and at most, about 7-8% would support it.

N.B. This study was carried out by leftist academics from England and their research design looks solid, so there is no way for a progressive activist to try and argue that they and their ideas were treated unfairly in this study - the evidence is clear, the sort of people who harassed (and/or supported that harassment) of Linko90 make up an ever decreasing share of the population.

SirPrimalform: And where do I fit in your extrapolation? I understand why GOG had to let him go (he was bad at his job repeatedly), but I'm not part of the 8% in your statistics. Woah!
Is it possible that not everyone outside of that 8% is a redpiller? Sounds pretty crazy if you ask me!

LootHunter: How can you be outside of 8% "progressives" if you have "progressive" view that Linko90 jokes being unacceptable?

SirPrimalform: 1. They said progressive activists. I was entirely passive with regard to this situation.
2. You are making big assumptions about my views. What I said was that Linko was fired for being bad at his job. Using a corporate account to make controversial jokes is being bad at PR.

LootHunter: 1. So called progressive activists are also passive with regard to many situations.
2. You just confirmed my assumptions - you think that Linko's jokes were controversial.

SirPrimalform: 1. Passive and active are antonyms.

2. That the tweets were controversial is not something up for debate. They were the subject of controversy, thus controversial. You may think the controversy is undeserved, that is not the same thing as the jokes not being controversial.
To put it another way, the jokes were about controversial subjects. You can't for a second pretend that gamergate and trans rights aren't controversial subjects, can you?
Making jokes about controversial subjects is being bad at PR.

LootHunter: 1. Yes, but a person who is active in regard to one situation can be passive in regard to another.

2. No, tweets were not controversial. Theye became controversial after "social activists" from ResetEra created controversy.
And yes, I agree that gamergate and transgender people rights are controversial subjects, but tweets were not connected to those subjects. The connection was made up by "social activists".

SirPrimalform: 1. Arguing with you is about as active as I get.

2. The only way that works is if you consider Linko to be a complete idiot incapable of understanding what he was doing. I give him a bit more credit, he knew what he was doing and was trying to be "edgy". Linko knew what he was doing when he picked the hashtag, he even referenced it in the tweet. I think the tweet was insensitive at worst, not outright offensive but that doesn't change the fact he picked a politically charged topic.
He was bad at PR and lost his job because of it. It's sad, but it's hardly unexpected.

RWarehall: So one mistake and someone like you can judge him as being "bad at his job" and "deserving to be fired". Judgemental much?

[...]

amok: Didn't he make three of these "mistakes"?

LootHunter: Yes, your reasoning follows "social activist" template to the T. Other people don't consider jokes about sexuality, or gender to be edgy and controversial. And hashtags are free to use.

LootHunter: EVERYTHING might offend some people. No matter what Linko would tweet SJWs would spin that as an offense. So there was no way for him to avoid controversy.

SirPrimalform: Absolute bollocks. Who knows how many thousands of companies there are out there managing not to offend anyone? If everything all companies tweet is offensive then GOG's tweet wouldn't have even been noticed. It would have been background noise amongst all the other offensive tweets.
