Fuck that shit. Standards are called standards for a reason. MS can eat shit or comment.
Comment on US government uses Halo images in a call to 'destroy' immigration, Microsoft declines to comment

We do have to hold Microsoft to a very slightly different standard, because they’re a Military Contractor. They’re not going to risk hundreds of billions of dollars to take a stance and make a statement. In that sense, this should not surprise anybody.

No, we really don’t have to hold them in a different standard. It makes sense they are kowtowing to the fascist regime though

Yes my entire point is that what they’re doing makes sense. It would actually be strange if the did anything differently given their position.
T00l_shed@lemmy.world 22 hours ago
Right, so no need to say anything about different standards
finitebanjo@lemmy.world 22 hours ago
It is, though. It’s one thing for some random artist to condemn the current admin, a totally different thing for a massive miliatary contractor to. That is a different standard.
