I just laughed after reading this thread :D
Not because the idea of grown men getting worked up over cancelled cartoons and Velma is funny. But because some of the angriest in this thread are the very loudest cheerleaders for the very sort of corporate action that leads to this sort of shit. The reason these cancellations are a symptoms of conglomerate who grew via mergers and acquisitions. They will cancel your programs just to make a show to shareholders that they’ve made cost cutting moves and are refocusing their strategies for increased future profits.

I know someone’s going to come in here and give me an earful of how 2 trillion USD valued big tech conglomerate is still not big enough, and should be allowed to buy up more and more companies, including the largest third party in the Console Gaming industry. Because apparently you’ve bought the PR, believe Microsoft are benevolent, and would never cut costs, programs, budgets, and staff to make a show to shareholders the way other conglomerates do.

That was more explanation than I wanted to give to explain why this thread is funny :D



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
