    Stocks went down. Fact. Companies are inclined to avoid controversy. Fact.

    Imo, Nintendo made the right decision.

    Stop crying about my non controversial position being too much for you to allow on the message board.

        I said broadly sales went down for these companies. That was inaccurate. Bud light sales definitely did go way down. Imbev sales are doing fine. And I acknowledged quarterly sales for these companies were fine. I clarified that although my comment about sales across the board was mistake.

        Nonetheless, stocks are still down, and companies tend to like to retain value for their shareholders. Now whether you don’t attribute the decline of their stocks while others are across the board have been rising is kind of a guess.

        But I definitely can see why board members of these companies would be inclined to just have no take in the matter, and avoid the variable altogether. Whether it’s misguided or not, or just plain wrong. Yet I’d prefer they stand up for marginalized groups and civil rights. And that’s what Nintendo seems to be doing in this one particular instance. So I give them some credit.

        Seems not worth fighting over for several days tbh. But I’m here for you.
