Attempts from woke activists to “cancel” a game developer have backfired; the game’s popularity has increased and its positive reviews have skyrocketed.

On June 18, one of the developers of Factorio, Michal Kovarik, aka Kovarex, posted a blog as part of the “Friday Facts” series, where he recommended Robert Cecil Martin, aka Uncle Bob, lectures on project management and programming.

OK, that was kind of amazing to read. This man has sound views on Communism, so yay him! Thanks for posting!

There are a LOT of good titles coming out of the EU and Russia as of late, and the developers are saying things and taking stands on subjects that many snowflakes find offensive; yet their games are getting gobbled up and seeing massive exposure on Twitch and YouTube.

I think this further reinforces the fact that European and even global people are tired of the BS American culture being forced into their worldviews, and I suspect that these global cultures will be the drivers for shutting down the idiocy bubbling up in our nation's culture.

Kovarex is 100% correct:

According to Kovarex, people should separate someone’s professional life from their personal and political ideologies.

They're literally calling for a boycott because the lead developer is calling for discretion. Unreal. And these enlightened twits are supposed to be the "inclusive" bunch?

Yeah, and it’s always BS because their side always gets a pass.
