But you're a Bernie enthusiast, which means you're a Wars for Israel fan, which means you literally are a rape kidnapping and murder supporter. Wherein am I mistaken?

...right, I'm giving you too much credit by assuming you have thought any deeper about him than "he offered me free shit". My bad.

Would you object if SE pulled it with the expectation of higher sales from the title?

No, that is what I thought we were discussing; the reasons why they might have that expectation. I am annoyed with those who fostered that perception though.

If I don't like tomatoes on my sandwiches I am not going to bitch until sandwich shops stop offering tomatoes in their sandwiches. I'll just look for tomato free sandwiches or sandwich alternatives if those aren't offered. Why take other peoples' tomatoes from them?

uh the mere fact that you want a sandwich without tomatoes is censorship and you are bad for trying to ruin gaming.

on top of that, its self censorship... which is even worse.

I've already endorsed (this is the third time now) sandwich shops that do not wish to serve tomatoes. That is their prerogative. Are you suggesting that all the regular patrons who enjoy tomatoes should go elsewhere? Doesn't make sense since I the one with the problem and they were happy with he service as is. Why would I do that?

What if I don't even eat sandwiches and I lobby for tomato-free sandwich exclusivity at sandwich shops? What then? Huh?

[Pokesan]

It's more like you're angry with the sandwich shop for offering a sandwich with the most popular ingredients.

Whether the sandwich you liked was once the most popular choice is completely irrelevant to their current goal of selling the most sandwiches they can and earning the most profit.

[maskedmelon]

Oh ok, so you contend that the rest of the sandwich shop patrons and/or sandwich esters in general no longer like tomatoes and I am alone I my tomato indifference. That may be and it's fine too if the case. I am just not convinced that most gamers have any issue at all with the Honey Bee Inn.

If the world in general deems tomatoes foul though, then business expansion would certainly be a challenge. I don't think that is the case either though. I do t think most people care about the content of other peoples' sandwiches. It just happens that the fee who do are very vocal about it.

I could be wrong though. The world may be most displeased with my indifference or appreciation of tomatoes.

I am most interested in why SE believes the world is against tomatoes. 70 years ago, sure, that whole sequence would have been offensive to many. But today?

[Pokesan]

I don't think tomatoes are a hill most sandwich consumers are willing to die on; I surely am not.

SE thinks they can make the most money without including HBI. This isn't censorship, it's a business decision. Demanding they include it, to their own (theoretical) financial harm, is unreasonable.

Do you think people will abstain from purchasing the game, solely because HBI was omitted?

[Pokesan]

Does it count as censorship if I intentionally ruin Kaga's threads with tomato chat?

this could be useful
