-->-- '''Cliff Bleszinski''' of Creator/EpicGames.

->''"But we live in an age where, for some people, being unhappy with a video game is actually more fun than enjoying a video game. Just look again at ''VideoGame/TheLastOfUsPart2'' and how many supposed "fans" of the series were shitting all over it months before it actually came out, just preparing themselves mentally to dislike it from the start no matter what, and finding any reason at all to tear into it and the so-called [=SJWs=] at Creator/NaughtyDog. For some, playing video games stopped being part of their hobby a long, long time ago, replaced instead by hating them as part of an obsessive and utterly exhausting culture war."''

->''"The biggest problem with the internet is that [[InternetJerk deranged fuckers out there can hide behind their screens, write a comment to an actor telling an actor to kill themselves, and then just close down their computers]], return to their lives [[KarmaHoudini and face no fucking consequences]]. It's not even these few psychopaths who do this, [[InherentInTheSystem it's the culture of the internet]]. So many of the people you see on the street have likely written a nasty comment to somebody before. [[ButForMeItWasTuesday It means absolutely nothing to them and doesn't impact them or their loved ones at all]]. But it can truly break the person reading it. It doesn't matter if you think Creator/HaydenChristensen did a poor job portraying Anakin Skywalker, it doesn't matter if you think Creator/GeorgeLucas made some bad movies, it doesn't matter even if you're correct in these opinions, which, knock-knock, [[{{YMMV}} is fucking subjective]]. But, let's say even if you were right these were bad movies objectively, '''it gives you absolutely no right to attack them for it''', to bully them online or to write hurtful shit you'd never say to them in person. I honestly don't understand how people can get so angry over some fucking movies that they do shit like this. [[DontLikeDontRead If I don't like a movie, then I won't watch it again]]. It's that simple. And if I'm very invested in that franchise the movie's a part of, then I'll still love the franchise. And if you can't do that, respectfully step away, then that's on you. Don't be a bitch just because you can't handle a little bit of adversity in your life. I swear to God, people like this wouldn't last a day in the shoes of the people who are targets of this hate. No fucking chance."''
