San Francisco police told Polygon that officers responded to Unity’s San Francisco office “regarding a threats incident.” A “reporting party” told police that “an employee made a threat towards his employer using social media.” The employee that made the threat works in an office outside of California, according to the police statement.

I don’t know who needs to hear this:
Unity sucks, but death threats are not okay.

If you really want to stop shit like this, vote in progressive legislators. So we can codify the fact that corporate actions influence more ppl than just the shareholders and their actions should reflect that.

Edit: thanks everyone for correcting me. I meant not okay.

but death threats are okay.

Freudian slip or really passionate about video games?

Maybe they're just a fan of death?

…Or maybe they mean threatening death itself— As in, like "Stop killing my friends, Death, that's really not cool, and I'm going to start stealing your Death-beers from your Death-fridge if you don't stop".
