    I have heard that kind of claims for doing in economy, but financially, it is not a good idea.
    It would only make sense, if they could fix the IP, after they buy it.
    But it would cost more to fix, than they saved by tanking the stock.

    While there is the option of Amazon buying GW if they get cheap enough, I doubt it would be any more faithful to the lore that was set up once they own it. After all, Amazon Studios produced Wheel of Time, which as I understand it is a very far cry from the lore in the books.

    Amazon doesn't want GW. Same was with Hasbro. GW has wanted to sell for years now but the factors have never been right for them. It's probably better for ESG/DEI managers to simply restructure GW slowly and silently with less fanfare. To covertly undermine the few who aren't ready to relinquish full control. They may bend to the will of ideology, but power is the one thing imo they just don't want to relinquish.

  • @Havic1137
    @Havic1137 4 месяца назад

    I genuinely think all of the blame shifting onto Amazon is a bandwagon and distracts from the real issue. There is no doubt in my mind that they were putting pressure on GW, but it's ridiculous to claim they are responsible. Blackrock and Amazon both have some blame - and there are undoubtedly factions within GW itself who are either supporting or opposed to further wokeification. There is clearly some level of sense somewhere in GW given that they hadn't given in on Female Space Marines already and have held that topic in contention, but whatever voice was shutting that down did not have the oversight to prevent Femstodes - or it slipped past their radar.
    I do not believe that GW made this decision unanimously. I do believe that Amazon, Blackrock, and GW themselves are all responsible and a group of people in the company basically managed to force their company into this position where they lose either 30% of their stock and their Amazon deal or they lose their fanbase and tank their own stock for a buyout over years. It's a lose/lose for them and the progressives know that no exec would have the spine to be willing to sacrifice the gangrenous hand for long term gains.
    But it doesnt matter who is to blame. It doesnt change the fact that this happened and is the reality. What matters is what we do about it.
