A video game company with a valuation in the billions of dollars, yes. Of which this guy was a co-founder and board member, meaning he was doing quite well for himself.
Does it not count because “it’s just video games lmao”? Would it be better if it was a music label or film studio?
Maybe instead of touching grass, you should pay more attention to the class war his type are waging against ours.
So what’s the cutoff for you then? If a person has more than $10 million does their life no longer matter? $5 million? What exact net-worth cutoff indicates they’re a cretin who is hellbent on enslaving the working class?
We live in a capitalist society. Even here in Canada where I have access to more socialized services, it’s still a capitalist society. People are going to make money - sometimes it’s borne of privilege, other times hard work, and sometimes the amount is egregious, but in my eyes the hard cutoff is whether or not they are a billionaire and/or use that money to influence policy.
Being wealthy at the age of 70 after spending literal decades growing one of the largest video game companies is not a crime and does not by default make this guy an awful person - AND - the amount paid to execs in many cases is disproportionate and would be better spent uplifting those who do the actual work.
I can believe both of those things simultaneously while not punching down at a dead guy who was not a billionaire. Why can’t you?
I’m not punching down. I’m punching up. This dude didn’t give a rat’s ass about the people who made him wealthy while he was alive, so why is he owed consideration by those same people just because he’s dead?
Why does growing a company matter, if it’s done by stealing the wages of the people that are producing the growth?
And where were you to punch up when he was alive? Ah right, on the internet being a keyboard warrior.
You’re making an awful lot of claims about somebody you don’t have any actual information on or had even heard of before they died based on what, perceived net worth? General dislike of large companies? Or maybe you’re projecting.
I’m not here to mourn this guy or defend him, if you remember how this conversation started I was looking for a reason to piss on his grave right beside you, but I can’t find one. Dude was nearly 70, had nothing to do with the day-to-day at Ubi for who knows how long, living his life until he wasn’t. No scandal, no donating to MAGA, no Epstein association, no union-busting. Just a higher than average net worth though I don’t think he was in the 1%.
We’re talking about a fuckong video game company.
Touch grass.

how about be a decent human being that isn’t fucking over someone, doesn’t seem that hard
The difference between 10 million dollars and a billion dollars is roughly 1 billion dollars

Yeah. He reached that higher than average net worth by wage theft.
