If this post is a meme / joke / troll, well played TENCENT INVESTOR.

Is that like chaotic evil, or does it encompass neutral evil, and lawful evil?

I know we can't blame the entirety of China for this. I just blame the people behind the pulling of Devotion.

No duh. They didn't lie about that either.

"Human decency"? Right, completely ignoring today's situation and history...

China (and communism as a whole) is responsible for more deaths than any other in the last 100 years:

Don't ever put CDP among these things! I know you're probably just working to get a better social score and trolling to get people to shift, but still...

What about Britney?

There is a lot of hyperbole here, you know.

If you're saying direct harm, I'm not sure. The CCP's economic strategy is producing their goods extremely cheap so that everyone buys from them, breaking the industries in other countries and resulting in millions of workers unemployed. Pretty much exactly like Walmart underselling in an area until they close every mom and pop store nearby, except in an international scale. (So in that sense, it could be this harm happened to people farther from me and you're technically right for me... but still wrong for people elsewhere.)

If however I am to consider damage to a society I happen to be a part of, then no, sorry. Slavery and genocides are bad. I won't delve further because I don't see it fair to sidetrack this further into politics than it has already. PM me if you disagree with my points.

(BTW I agree with WeirdoGeek above. Chinese people? Mostly okay with them. The CCP? Bunch of assholes whose death will make the world a better place)

Hyperbole aside I agree that some people here appear to display an incredible... need... to defend anti-consumer practices just because they were perpetrated by their beloved "heroes". Apparently nothing they do is enough to take them off that pedestal.

I also want to make a note here that I too think that GOGs behavior is unethical.
While that alone isn't enough to justify a boycott(many companies behave in a way I deem unethical), GOG is going against their own promises.
Therefore, GOG no longer a no-brainer for me and I will consider other options when buying game licenses in the future.

BASED China!

If anything, that's something I'd like to see more of: Billionaire leeches who grew rich at the expense of their underpaid workforce getting their comeuppance. First that guy grew filthy rich, then he complains about how the government should "Gib moar deregulations pls!" because even they consider the 996 system you're peddling a flagrant abuse of your workers. Seriously, Jack Ma can go rot in hell. He's a scumbag.

I want off the list. Far too often, the Devotion situation is used as an excuse for racism, and I do not want to be associated with it any further.

Ok, no problem, I have removed your name. I'm not sure what you mean by racism though. Do you mean in this thread, specifically?

While I respect your point of view and your decision, do note that this boycott and this thread doesn't necessarily have anything to do with Devotion. Some people boycott because of Devotion, others for other reasons. My boycott of GOG, for example, is not in any way related to the Devotion blunder, and I would not stop it even if GOG were to release Devotion tomorrow.

Seriously? You know most people know the difference between the CCP and the Chinese people right?...Are you sure you're not just hanging around Twitter too much?

I sure hope it's nothing like; Criticism against China = "sinophobic".
Because we've seen that trick before..

I want to believe, but in today's clown world...
