At the end of the day, people actually making a concious decision to not support a company by simply not buying its product is the best you can hope for.
You can’t expect some random kid in another country to start looking into American Unions in fields that won’t ever apply to them.
I didn’t say “join a gameworker’s union”. Joining a union is a good idea, no matter where you are and what you work as.
Not consuming a product is simply that: inaction. And the publisher won’t even notice it, if it’s not connected to a publicity campaign (like e.g. BDS)
Well, isn’t that what we’re doing here? The entire point is to communicate you stance to others. And there’s quite a few AAA titles that have suffered simply because the customer base actually can communicate.

Lol. Whut? I can point to no example like that and ample examples where these kinds of “boycots” did squat (like e.g. with the original Modern Warfare 2 not having a server browser).
oh awesome thanks. I can give you my name and address if you want to go ahead and donate in my name. also I am broke as fuck so you can do that for me too.
and let me know when you want me to start organizing stuff in my neighborhood with the time i don’t have. you’ll have to come and take over my responsibilities too.
It’s nowhere near that simple. Not even close. Even forming a limited company or LLP is more than “an Excel sheet” and that’s before you even start the due diligence process. Unless you wanna go the sole trader route, in which case good luck with the whole “unlimited personal liability” thing.
Capitalist brainwashed folks like Meldrik do not comprehend his monopoly money means shit to a merger conglomeratepropping up value for investors to get dupped on in an at-will state.

Not gonna solve the union busting. Individual boycotts (without a campaign behind them) don’t work.
Not much else I can do.
And Prunebutt shouldn’t be discouraging it. Voting with your wallet is the way to go and it’s the only thing any of us can do.
Your “wallet” belongs to your minter.
Electoralism is toilet tissue.
You can be composting C-suites.
It’s also ineffective as fuck…
Doesn’t matter.

Well, it has to start somewhere.
From Dragon Age: Veilguard and Suicide Squad to Condord and Redfall. They all underperformed for the same reason. People talked.
what is your plan to fix the issue? please be detailed.

thanks this is super rewarding!

Edit: You asked how to help and I answered. Were did I state that it’s a moral imperative to help if you’re unable to?
my point was that you are judging those who wanted to help as not doing enough. not being good enough.
not everyone can dedicate time. they’re not wrong for wanting to help and not being able to.
You can form a cooperative, and hire them at prospective dividends plans.
I’m right behind you.
I’m in Japan. You gonna emigrate me to UK to do all that?
No one can do anything about anything ever, sorry
Sure if you pay for the lawyers and accountants necessary to form a cooperative
That’s like a one person with an Excel sheet of work you just describe.
I can hire you at $Sales/150+you current [IWGB] unionists. How does that read?
Not UK barred yet.

I’m not in the UK either though.
Then just say “Wish you unionists best wishes. I feel at a loss on what to help with.”
I already said what they need to do from the start with my experience as a syndicalist. Heeding my expertise is another matter.
Oh well then do nothing then I guess
Which was what you were planning on doing anyway, isn’t it?
Umm, yeah?
So what
Well, good for you. But don’t act as if you helped.
