Sweatshops? Really? I never heared about players complaining about EA having awful working conditions. Because majority of complains are about ruined franchises, Shyamalan quality games and being Fecal Midas, turning everything they touch into ****.

What would you post about if EA did go bankrupt?
Nothing. Will be too drunk after celebrations.

Okay we will have to agree to disagree about the importance and relevance of equality in places like Russia
Also I have had many discussions around topics like gay rights, so if you could provide the links that explain your opinion that would be very helpful
Finally if you feel strongly enough about topics like the USA border facing Mexico and how this could be a human rights issue then start a discussion around this? I'll support you if its a real issue around discrimination
I care not about USA/Israeli borders, just used them as an example. They can place minefields, razorwire, poisoned snakes, killer bees, mount automated turrets that will shoot any trespassers - it's their country and they are free to do as they want.

If EA goes under this would effect Bioware and why would any lover of RPG want something to negatively impact the company that has brought us some of the greatest RPG of all time ?Because they are the cancer that is killing RPG genre.

Yes I take every discussion seriously, I wouldn't waste my time responding if I didn't believe what I posted. I'm sorry you are so bored with your life that you make comments and engage in debate that you don't take seriously ( of course this is not true because you do make some relevant but incorrect points so its obvious you do think about what you say or believe, I hope you can see the contradiction when you make a comment like " people that take discussions seriously on forums must be mental" because this applies to you
)You mistake having fun with "it is very important, someone is wrong on the Internet"
Your view of the current state of South Africa and its problems is incorrect, but that's a discussion we can have another time.
Almost every time I have this debate with people around equality throughout the world they make similar points to you. They typically
- Quote how the West historically use to behave. Colonialism and how belligerent Western countries use to be comes up. But we are not talking about the past. We are talking about the current state of equality in countries like Russia. Western countries believe in equality and practice it nowadays. This is not whats best for them but what is best for there citizens as they like to be inclusive of all groups of people in there respective countries that pay taxes and contribute towards the growth of the country. Western countries also take seriously the principles of Human rights which are part of most constitutions
Colonialism is bad? Lol? Colonialism is normal and healthy. Strong eats the weak.
Again, what makes you think it is best for the citizens? From videos it is definetely the opposite - police standing around groups of gays, protecting them from being lynched by the citizens. Human Rights is no different from "Kissing Hank's Ass".People live as they want in their countries. If you are Angola or iceland, then you could be pressured into anything. If you are USA, Russia or China, then you spit on all "pressure" and do as you want. I would have a good belly laugh if some country would demand USA to dismantle their mexican border fence, or Israel to open border with Palestine, "becuz freedum fur peepolz".
We need to keep what is happening in Russia simple, do you personally feel that a gay person should have less social rights than a straight person. And if you do can you explain why?
We discussed it before and mods closed the topic. Go search it in your content.

It doesn't seem like you taking this topic seriously?
Also I am not talking about the whole of the African continent and its current economic prosperity, I agree there is loads of work to be done. I am talking about how Apartheid ended in South Africa and the external pressure that was put on the South African government that forced them to change the political system
If you are taking something written on internet forums seriously, then you are having a mental problems.
SA's post-apartheid fate is a great example of consequences of external pressure. Free shantytowns for everyone! Shaman medicine is not that free but at least it's everywhere.
My point is that if you want certain countries to change there social views you can't rely on them to "do the right thing"
Maybe it's because nobody asks them if they like your "right thing"?
Without external influence you won't see the right steps to a society that doesn't discriminate against certain groups. This discussion is about equality and how we get countries to accept that.
What makes you think they are right? Great Britain waged war because they thought smoking opium is the right step for China. Monarchies waged wars to restore deposed monarchs.
If you want other to change because you can force them to do so - you are welcome, might makes right. But pretty please, don't colour your intentions with "morality", "right things" and other moralistic stuff.

I hear you but in many cases the world can't leave countries to decide there social responsibilities. They need influence and pressure to change.
Agreed, for example there's an influence and pressure that all women should cover their faces and Piglet is an offensive character and should be banned. Or pressure that people should believe in the right god. We have social responsibilities to teach those uneducated masses how to live! It is insulting to assume they can decide for themselves how to live in their countries. Next thing they say is that oil deposits belong to them alone. Ridiculous!
In South Africa do you think Apartheid would have ended if it wasn't for sanctions and the fact that the Western world refused to accept discrimination?
And just look how happy and prosperous Africa now.

Just for putting greenpeace retards into small, cold and wet jail cell, Russia should be forgiven and absolved of all sins. Send all the greenscum closer to siberian nature, preferrably for a decade or so.

I feel like I should add precious bits of anime wisdom to the thread:

Such a man you are Cultist. Way above those neckbeards.
It's fully their choice to follow what they believe in.
And it's fully our choice to laugh at them for that.

By Lewis Carrol:
“Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.”
In essence, you're being extremely immature here.
Indeed I am. Anyway, Lewis Carrol was lucky because he did not witness things like this:
