NickMercs Part 3: A long time friend of Mercs and professional gamer/ streamer asked Activision/ Blizzard to remove his skin or promo pack or whatever from CoD; the company did so within hours.
Here's where it gets funny. I don't recall the details, but I know A/B had this big PR/ ad campaign touting its support of women in general and specifically those in the company. Problem is, A/B was later hit with a massive lawsuit over sexual harassment at A/B headquarters. The main perpetrator? The CEO. But wait, there's more!
The CoD franchise has killed a metric shitton of Arabs and Muslims over the years. As to not offend Muslims, A/B removed...LGBT references from copies sold in the ME.
But now the compassionate, "coexist" fans of the game, aided by A/B, are cancelling a couple of guys over "leave kids out of this."
