Where I think he makes a crossed point about social media. Attacking a game worker on social media who is just minding their own business isn't cool, I agree.

However, responding to a game workers taunts on social media is exactly the engagement social media was designed for. That's why the creatives are there calling their customers toxic to get engagement
