Wizards of the Coast Employees Walk Out Over Hasbro's 'Tone-Deaf' Response to Overturning of Roe v. Wade

Good luck to the WotC employees who are standing up against their cowardly corporate leadership. I may be done spending my money on Hasbro products.

Wizards of the Coast Employees Walk Out Over Hasbro's 'Tone-Deaf' Response to Overturning of Roe v. Wade

The employees of WOTC plan to take a day off on June 29 to “show solidarity that Hasbro will not."

Sad to hear that about Hasbro. Glad to hear it from their employees.

Idk, it seems like an unnecessary measure to pay for travel for employees when a company is already located in a state where it's legal.
I would be instantly fired and incinerated into the bowels of hell if I made a demand like this to my employer.

Yeah—-I don’t think I have ever worked somewhere that I could demand much of anything.

For example, I like to donate to children’s hospitals and to help animals.

“Listen boss, if you don’t put out a statement about these things that I LIKE and think is good enough, I will walk out!”

Boss to me: Well, bye.” Wonder how this will pan out.

Makes sense that a toy company wouldn't want to be seen supporting the murder of children.

I've said my peace on this. Don't @ me.

Hasbro (and it’s subsidiaries) only has employees in states where abortion is legal? They don’t have employees in other states?

I wish those employee's well and that they walk away forever. You are paid to create content to entertain. Entertain me with content not your beliefs. I am on neither side of the debate.

The Hasbro Latin American HQ is in Miami, Florida which may be directly impacted by the recently passed 15-week legislative ban with no exceptions for rape or incest.

They’re people, not your word processor monkeys. If you don’t like their opinions, you may ignore them as you please. But I prefer people to speak out when facing injustice.

I'm glad to see so many good actors talking a stand as voices within our own little community.

I'm also glad that  most of our community is compassionate and dedicated towards justice for all.
