I love how countries are fighting over Microsoft’s purchase of Activision doing “harm” to their industry while this WB merger has literally lost thousands of jobs for hard working people.

If this doesn’t show how fucked the laws are for us peons nothing will. They don’t care about regulations as long as their pockets get lined along the way.

When I went to college for a media arts degree, the main thing I learned in MART 110 was fuck Sonny Bono.

This is how all acquisitions go. It’s not like it’s some brand new idea only affecting WB. Shit sucks but that’s life.
