when I got laid off from Vice, I later found out that members of the c-suite had awarded themselves bonuses that were higher than my annual salary. I hope that answers your question.
There's a common mythology that those with wealth and power must have "deserved" that wealth or power: they must have been smart, or good, or kind. But it's just that. A myth. They'll keep making bad decisions that make money hurting the lives of their own workers until we wrestle that axe BACK.
Yeah always so weird to me that the c-suite of these companies that quite literally sell their employees just escape any scrutiny. I mean I get it, 'lots of money + more resources' is always going to be attractive and it takes bravery to resist and plan for the long game, but...due diligence much?

The contradictions of our cruel and idiotic system are laid bare.
Frankly, they have been for a couple of centuries already, but at least we, in gamedev, are getting the first-hand experience.
Of course it had to be a turtle magician. Inevitable really.
...it goes diagonally....right??
Also a good reminder to occasionally kiss your monitor so it knows you appreciate it
