SirPrimalform: That's a bold statement that would be tricky to prove. Do you have a source for that?
Honestly, I'm surprised people are still going on about this.

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.
Is it possible that not everyone outside of that 8% is a redpiller? Sounds pretty crazy if you ask me!
