Square Enix now threatens to send players to jail for criticizing their employees

[Yshnal]

There's nothing to rebut, you have no argument. Your posts are hysterical paranoid nonsense completely divorced from reality and your replies are a loop of "NUH UH!" No reply I could ever formulate would satisfy you because you've already convinced yourself that SE is going to burn people at the stake for the slightest criticism despite having zero history of doing so.

For the final time, anyone upset about a "please don't harass our employees" policy needs to take a long look in the mirror. This policy is a non-issue for well adjusted people.

Your response employs several fallacies, including a strawman argument and ad hominem attacks. You keep misrepresenting my position by claiming that I have stated this policy will lead to the outcomes I’ve described, when in fact I’ve clearly argued that such outcomes can happen due to the policy’s subjective language. This distinction is evident in the language I’ve used, such as "can" instead of "will," and in the examples I provided to illustrate how this policy might be misused.

I have asked direct and reasonable questions, such as whether the policy explicitly supports my interpretation, and what makes your perspective different from those concerned about potential misuse. These are clear points that could foster constructive dialogue if addressed, yet you refuse to do so.

Moreover, your dismissive remarks and use of insults—such as calling my arguments "hysterical paranoid nonsense"—ironically reflect the kind of toxicity that part of the policy we’re discussing is supposedly meant to prevent. Additionally, you’ve entirely avoided responding to my counterarguments, including the points where I directly addressed your claims or provided clarifications. Ignoring all that does not strengthen your position; it merely highlights your unwillingness to engage substantively, or perhaps indicates that you lack valid arguments to support your position.

If you prefer not to engage, that's your prerogative, but resorting to insults and blanket dismissals doesn't strengthen your position. It detracts from any meaningful discussion and undermines the respect that should exist, even in disagreement.

Since it’s clear you’re unwilling to engage constructively and prefer to resort to insults and dismissive remarks, I see no reason to continue this conversation. I’ll leave it at that.
