No, please stop. I can't take it. What you wrote is an inaccurate interpretation of the facts. It also exposes your hypocrisy. You seem to speak passionately about "bullying" and that Phil Fish is a "victim". Apparently, it is wrong to harass someone on the internet, unless your name is Phil Fish. It is wrong to write "suck on it" "hows your boycott going nerds" "compare yourself to me and kill yourself", and to act like a disrespectful human being who insults his own fanbase, unless you are called Phil Fish. When people ask for Fez on the PC, and you insult them. That's okay, because he is Phil Fish, he is only defending himself from his "abusers", his fans. Phil Fish has a history of doing this for the past year. He acquired his notoriety preciously because of his disgusting actions. He was a bully, yet he couldn't take the heat. He IS part of the problem. Period. Now, when you realize that Phil Fish actions are indefensible, and are the REAL problem about this situation, you will say that he suffers from "mental problems", but this is another excuse.

Notice how there are many indie developers are out there who aren't being harassed. Thats because the idea that Phil Fish was harassed randomly is simply a way to gloss over the real issue. You spend all your time, like warriors, decrying about how bad his supposed "abusers" are, like there is some type of epidemic problem of people who are spending their time attacking poor Phil Fish for no reason. Yet, what set him off weren't the abusers, it was his critics. Again and again, he responded to his critics like a child. Shifting the focus on the "abusers" is ignoring the real problem. This is what western developers have become. It is sickening to see people defending the indefensible.

You simply don't know how this industry works. Pretty much every public figure in games gets abuse by being on the internet. It's why an article was written about it, because it's not just Phil Fish and it's not just something he 'did' to 'deserve' it.
