double fine busted its union, alas kotaku.com/inside-the-f...

I just want to flag for anyone who listens to me and might be understandably under the Double Fine spell (despite their propaganda show depicting some pretty grim shit) that there's no way this is true. These union efforts don't just happen. Huge amounts of care go into getting these things lined up

I'm sure it's a great place to work for a lot of people a lot of the time, but it's never a good idea to accept the idea of any company as a big lovely teddy bear; you need to be sceptical of these narratives. There are otherwise lovely people you'd never dream are viciously anti-union, anti-worker

The layoffs are something that "happened to" Double Fine (fuck Microsoft) but the exact layoffs that took place will have been heavily informed by who was known to be involved in unionising. That will be the case For Sure and it's fucked up

Like this is fake, sorry. This is damage control. The big bad unionnnnn it was dodgy you guys trust me, there was just a vibe. Fuck off

Like they fired the entire union, as best they could
