I don't think there's any evidence that this is the case, but even if it is true, so what? If anything, it's good to see American gamers standing up for those from other countries. An injury to one is an injury to all, and solidarity is the only way you can make large companies pay attention.

It's dishonest solidarity, that's my point. Only care about other countries when America can benefit from them. How very American.

Solidarity is literally sticking together, even when something doesn't directly benefit you.

Arguing that it's "dishonest" solidarity if you're not directly affected is so backwards I can't assume you're coming from a very honest place.
