Activision/Blizzard Video Game Company Decides To Join the Bud Light/Target Brigade, Demands to be Boycotted

NickMercs is the screenname of a famous Code of Duty videogame streamer. He's so famous that Call of Duty created a playable character for him which you can play in-game.

NickMercs also wants to Erase the Existence of Trans People. That is the Regime-approved smear for anyone who isn't keen to have the sick religion of transgenderism preached to their children in Regime-controlled schools.

Well, Activision/Blizzard isn't going to stand by and allow people to express reasonable positions with 85% public support. The cancelled NickMercs' in game character and declared that their priority is celebrating "PRIDE" month.

Activision Blizzard has cancelled their collaborative partnership with FaZe Clan co-owner Nicholas "Nickmercs" Kolcheff after the popular streamer voiced his belief that LGBT activists groups should "leave the kids alone".

Kolcheff, who joined what is arguably the world's most well known esports team in May 2019 before subsequently becoming a co-owner sometime in April 2021, offered his opinion on the current state of LGBT activism in response to a recent protest against the Glendale Unified School District's proposal to formally recognize June as

...

On January 6th in Glendale, California, the school board meeting in which officials would be voting on the resolution found itself inundated with parents -- primarily from the local Armenian and Hispanic communities, both of which are highly conservative -- who sought to voice their discontent with the district's goal of teaching and promoting LGBTQ-related topics.

...

In turn, Kolcheff's Tweet was met with a wave of backlash from the general public, many of whom took his statement as a pedophilic generalization against all LGBTQ+ members rather than a commentary on the group's aggressive activism.

I doubt there was a "wave" of backlash from the "general public." There was some shrieking from the same 100 bot accounts that always shriek.

Two days later, Call of Duty-centric Twitter news account @charlieINTEL would discover that Activision Blizzard had seemingly "removed the Nickmercs bundle from the Warzone and MWII store this evening."

"Activision has not commented on why it has been removed," they explained, "but the removal of his bundle comes a day after Nickmercs' recent comments about the LGBT+ community."

Released on May 31st, the aptly named Tracer Pack: Nickmercs Operator Bundle included two different in-game skins -- one featuring the esports personality wearing a spartan helmet and the other a 'hooded' variant -- two gun blueprints, one finishing move, a charm, an emblem, a sticker, and a loading screen, all of which was themed after Kolcheff's online persona.


Roughly two minutes later, the official Call of Duty Twitter account would respond to @charlieINTEL and confirm, "Due to recent events, we have removed the "NICKMERCS Operator" bundle from the Modern Warfare II and Warzone store."

"We are focused on celebrating PRIDE with our employees and our community," they concluded.

Activision -- "Activism," amirite? -- had better watch out. Videogamers famously do not like being bullied to adopt far leftwing position. There was a consumer movement called "GamerGate" about this.

And now the boycott is on, as other famous videogame commentators and Call of Duty players stand in solidarity with NickMercs.

Popular streamer Dr Disrespect called on gamers to uninstall Call of Duty and demanded Activision Blizzard issue an apology to NICKMERCS after the company removed his operator bundle from the game for telling LGBTQ+ activists to "leave the kids alone."

...

Call of Duty would confirm on June 8th that they removed the NICKMERCS Operator bundle "due to recent events."

The company tweeted, "Due to recent events, we have removed the "NICKMERCS Operator" bundle from the Modern Warfare II and Warzone store. We are focused on celebrating PRIDE with our employees and our community."


Fellow streamer TimTheTatman would request that Call of Duty remove his bundle as well if they were going to remove NICKMERCS.

He tweeted, "NICKMERCS has been my friend for years- we went in getting our CoD operators together. It feels wrong for me to have mine and him no longer have his. In support of my friend, please remove the timthetatman bundle."

And Activism duly did.

A first-person military shooting game probably has a supermajority conservative base -- and there are ten other essentially-equivalent games. We can crush Activism even more thoroughly than we're crushing Bud Light.

Update:

Microsoft is in the process of acquiring Activision for $68B, but the FTC is trying to block the deal. Maybe this is a calculated bribe to the ESG crowd.

Let's see if we can knock a couple of dozen billion off that value.

Related: Joe Rogan says the public has had it with this corporate "woke sh*t."

With massive companies facing public backlash for engaging in woke messaging, Rogan's guest, standup comedian Theo Von, proposed an app that could show customers of a business "where they put their political money."

"A little of that is going on right now with all the woke s--," Rogan responded. "Target lost billions of dollars because they tried to have this Pride selection."

"Yeah, and obviously the Bud Light thing with Dylan Mulvaney, they've lost $20+ billion," Rogan added. "Can you imagine, you're just gonna send a f---- can to a confused person -- that 'Day 365 of womanhood' -- and you send that person a f---- can with their face on it and your company loses $20 billion?" Rogan said. "That is wild s--, man."

"So we're seeing that now where we never saw that before, where people are going 'Enough! Enough! Stop shoving this down everybody's throat,'" Rogan observed.


That clip is shown at 5:45:


In this clip -- unfortunately by super-woke gay Fake Conservative Brad Columbo -- a woman defends transgenders pressuring lesbians to have sex with them and just ignore the "Lady Penis" by asserting that the term "lesbian" does not at all pertain to women who want to have sex with women.

Instead, the term means any "non-men" who are sexually attracted to other "non-men," including of course men in Party City wigs.

Bonus: This is months old but I just saw it (at the beginning of that Dave Rubin clip above).
