You’re apparently unfamiliar with the concept of the open letter or writing to a specific person instead of just spewing garbage out a general agency. It’s not uncommon.

The Hinduism excuse really doesn’t fly most of the time, especially when we’re talking about hate speech. It’s pedantic and weaselly and does not pass the smell test.

Unsafe could mean, for an examples I have seen on steam forums, that minorities get harassed or told they should be exterminated. Just like Nazis should be scared to be in public IRL, they shouldn’t have safe spaces online either.

I know by your language you already have your mind made up and probably have a real strong opinion on ethics in gaming journalism, but extremism is a real problem.

I don’t really want to engage with people like you, so I won’t be responding further, but I didn’t really want to leave your bs unchallenged.
