did they think this would go over any other way
I've seen this posted in a few places already, can people check their sources

Yeah sorry i'm not buying it. This is an actual Infowards reporter. This guy lies and spreads dogwhistles for a living. Give me another source.
it's part of painting the people with legitimate concern in a bad light and delegitimizing them, not surprised to see it's an infowars idiot.
i get all my news from "lulz.com" hahah
If you aren’t politically active, you probably have no idea what #WontBeErased refers to. Like so many other trending hashtags, it looked like one of those every day normie hashtags that people tweet into and post jokes or references, so it’s difficult for any sane human being to fault the social media managers at CD Projekt Red and GOG for thinking it was anything but political.
This source reads like some parody.
This is written by Ian Miles Cheong. The guy who was a reddit mod and spammed links to his site for money.
this article is literally oozing with bias and personal opinion lmao
Their non-apology didn’t help much either, calling the potential erasure and abuse of minorities a “social debate”

This is currently blowing up r/gaming and other places, nobody questions it or looks further into it because what amounts to a few trashy Ian miles cheong tweets now looks like a genuine article with a juicy headline.
You know someone is trying to influence your view on some news when they point at resetera posts as the whole "trans mouvement".
Boggles my mind that this has happened twice from the same company. Do they do no screening of which intern gets put on their social media?
Why are people blaming CD Projekt Red for this and acting like they deserve it? the fuck
wow big hulaballo over a non-issue
Ohh fuck off with this bullshit. Who did they kill? Who did they threaten? What the ever loving fuck was the consequence of this? There isn't one. So this dumb shit can piss off.
It's actually a bit more funny than that -- he supports whatever opinion ends up being the highest bidder.
He's a literal shill who has no opinions of his own.
I think that might've been sarcasm, dude.
Unfortunately Poe's law has only grown stronger in recent years. There is no way to tell because those exact same kinds of posts have been made in this forum before, let alone elsewhere on the internet, and with total sincerity.
Nobody said that. it was just a pretty dumb tweet. But this article and its author are garbage

Seems like a perfectly rational human being to me...
Wasn't Infowars supposed to be a banned source? Or was that just in Polidicks?
ive never heard of this hashtag before now
And now yet another shitstorm ensues because blood's in the water and the tabloid sharks are willing to stir hell and a half to get it.
Gotta love that weird socially unconscious and self-congratulating original tweet from GOG, controversy or no.
"Trans issues? Aren't you guys forgetting GAMERS? 😎. Yeah, we said it."
wtf does GoG have to do with cdpr
GoG was created by and is owned by CD Projekt, who obviously also own CD Projekt Red.
Both are owned by CD Projekt SA. I'm pretty sure they're in the same building.
Projecting, much?
Yeah, he's a lying bigoted piece of shit. And he has mourned Infowars being taken down from Google search results.
But I'm not finding anything about him being one of their reporters. I've found him linked to on the site, but nothing saying he works for them.
I mean, he's still not a trustworthy source, and is complete shit. And does lie and dogwhistle for a living.
But I don't think we should spread a misconception that he works for Infowars.
Maybe I'm just missing something, though.
There's a great little collage that I'm having a hard time finding now of his historic tweets about climate change. They start off fully understanding that it exists and is man made, and as he rapidly drifted into the alt-right lunacy they become, well, that.
Ian is an absolute fucking idiot and the definition of a manchild who can't stop inserting himself into everything. Utterly irrelevant and totally clueless as to how the world around him works. He's been bounced out of so many gaming sites for his shitty practices now he's like the Black Plague. Nobody wants him but those already too far gone to save.
He wrote a lot of trash for Milo Yianopoulos's website, "Dangerous", which then got posted on Infowars.

Just a general alt right shithead who's paid to write dogwhistles and lies.
