Do you think this idiot deserves to be cancelled?



John Gibson, the head of Portland based Tripwire Interactive is facing backlash from the video game industry after the publisher tweeted his support to Texas' controversial "heartbeat" law which bans abortions after 6 weeks, when most women find out they're even pregnant..and now his co-developer studio CANCELLED their contracts with them!!

Texas SB-8, also known as Texas Heartbeat Act is the strictest abortion law in the country that bans women from having abortions once a fetal heartbeat is detected and they're even offering awards to peopel who SNITCH on women and doctors performing abortions.

But John posted his support of the ban as his company is best known for creating the popular survival game "Maneater" as well as multiplayer hit "Chivalry 2". John says he has quiet kept of his conservative politics for years but cannot hold back his profound happiness to hear that one state has stood up for the unborn and has made it illegal to kill babies.

He said he was "proud" of the ban writing "As an entertainer, i don't get political often. Yet with so many vocal peers on the other side of this issue i felt it was important to go on the record as a pro-life game developer"

Portland city where his company is based and is one of the most liberal in the united states is preparing to vote on an emergency resolution that restricts good and services and travel to Texas in protest

Shipwright Studios, a developer that collaborated with him announced they're writing ties writing "While your politics are your own, the moent you make them a matter of public discource you entangle all of those working for and with you. We know it is difficult for employees to speak up or act out in these scenarios and they may not feel comfortable to speak their minds. it is regrettable, but we feel it would be doing ourselves, your employees, your partners and the industry as a whole a disservice to allow this pattern to continue without comment. We cannot in good conscious continue to work with Tripwire under the current leadership structure"

Torn Banner Studios, who worked with them on Chivalry 2 also cancelled them writing they do not share the opinion expressed his tweet as they support women's rights.

Abortion Rights activists around the country are voicing their outrage which has now become a hot button issue with hollywood actors such as Reese Witherspoon, Eva Longoria Baston and Pink among criticizing the bill.

Uber and Lyft has also said they will pay all legal fees if any of their drivers bring women to abortion clinics as well the CEO of Match Group Shar Dubey and Bumble founder Whitney Wolfe

The Conservative Supreme Court ruling that refused to acknowledge the case has caused outrage as Roe V Wade could be comign to an end

It's the perfect "the radical left took away much free speech, use coupon code #MyRights at cheapchinesegargbage.com to get 20% off the supplements the big pharmaceuticals doctors dont want you to know about "

I can't tell if you're joking, but I feel like this is what's going to end up happening.

Even retail jobs have clauses in their contracts stating you can be fired over social media posts "for making the company look bad".

Nothing else makes sense.

Do you really need social media presence though?

My husband has a LinkedIn account and thats it. No Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc. You do a search on him and all that comes up is his LinkedIn page, his patents, and conferences he spoke at. No opinions from him. Just his work.

Exactly, no need to be a big public presence. It's better for your mental health anyway.
