    GOG in this situation: Block the video for everyone speaking French.

    But let’s see if Proton actually stop this shit with other right wing weirdos or will just stop the sponsorship with this one dude.

      For sure. I’m suspicious of Proton, though they clearly have a better PR staff. Low bar compared to GOG’s recent self-own.

        Nah this is what peak PR looks like:

        "The right wing ideology is part of my cultural and historical heritage. As a Swiss, I am fully aware of both its history and the sensitivities surrounding it.

        As a Swiss, I have every reason to treat this history with seriousness and respect. Precisely because of that, I reject any suggestion that this promotion carried an extremist message. It did not."

        I’ll never forget this shit, such ass response from GOG
