Comment on Unity temporarily closes offices amid death threats following contentious pricing changes

  When you call for violent threats you give ammo to the very groups that you wish to inflict harm upon for the masses to side with them

  Accountability for CEO actions needs to be done financially. It needs to first and foremost affect shareholders - because that’s the only point for a public company to exist - and then after that it needs to personally penalize CEOs.

  If you just target the figurehead of a company the owners won’t really be affected. You need to get them where it REALLY hurts - in the wallet. Only then will the dynamic change.

    We can see clearly that that’s not happening. No one has any actual sympathy for Unity and even the most highly upvoted comments in this thread are of people justifying it.

    No one in the masses sides with them. People are not that stupid.

      I have a fuckload of sympathy for this company after people call in death threats.

      You people are acting insane. The proper response here is for devs to stop using unity not to fucking threaten to kill people dude.

        You only have a fuckload of sympathy for them because you either have a political agenda or they’re lining your pocketbook. Either way, your opinion is irrelevant.

        You’re acting insane. And vile, and despicable. The proper response to people saying #EatTheRich is to leave them the hell alone. If people agree with the dumb death threats and stupidity, that’s their right. Not everyone has to think like you to be good or valid people. You’re deeply problematic for thinking otherwise.

    I’d say being dead really hurts them. Seriously though I get what you’re saying but it isn’t the reality and we know it. The rich take advantage of us, write the laws and just win overall.

    I don’t see it as wrong for us to be violent toward these people
