You're saying it's completely impossible that a game developer remortgaged their home for their project and then failed to meet their required sales by a small amount that could be accounted for by being active on Twitter?

Like, completely impossible for that to happen under absolutely any circumstances?

If your entire argument hinges on such a myopic view of things then your argument is not very good. We also both know that I am not saying “literally zero people ever“ and that it is patently absurd of you to interpret my point that way. It’s dishonest and ridiculous.

You know what my actual argument is, hiding behind a flagrantly dishonest interpretation of it is not the slam dunk you think it is. Unless you are truly that ignorant and only able to read things hyper literally, in which case I apologize for expecting too much of you.

All of this stupid disagreement is about this:

You either do the right thing and lose a little exposure or you stick with it and accept that you’re a part of Elon Musk’s political machine.

For some people, that's a choice between scraping by and failing.

I'm saying: do what you gotta do
