Well, this is something you don’t see every day.
Tripwire President John Gibson came out in full support of the Texas law banning abortion for babies with a heartbeat. Seems Gibson felt that it was time for people to hear from a different group, the pro-life gamers. And we all know how ugly and hateful and awful the mob can be, and Gibson had to know this as well, so the fact he still did this anyway makes him a total bada*s in our book.
Take a look.
Proud of #USSupremeCourt affirming the Texas law banning abortion for babies with a heartbeat. As an entertainer I don’t get political often. Yet with so many vocal peers on the other side of this issue, I felt it was important to go on the record as a pro-life game developer.

We so dig this.
Thank you for standing for LIFE! Children will continue to live because of your courage in speaking out.

Seriously.
It was incredibly ballsy because HOOBOY, check out the screeching … it’s impressive, even for pro-aborts:
This was a sure fire way to convince me to uninstall Maneater and disregard anything with your name on it.

Imagine being SO ANGRY with someone for supporting life that you want to destroy them and their work.
Steve is doing it wrong.

Yes. Pro-life is so disgusting.
But abortion is totes great.
*eye roll*
Oh wow misogyny in game development, very original.

Pro-life is misogyny?
Hrm.
Here's $1 donated to @FundTexasChoice for every hour I've spent playing a game developed or published by @TripwireInt . I can promise they will be the last.

thanks for letting me know that your „pro-life“ attitude seems to end at the pregnant persons life.
I just deleted maneater off my steam library and am never gonna touch a game of yours on my livestream ever again.
it should always be the pregnant persons CHOICE of what to do.

Yikes.
Pregnant person.
This country is so broken.
Pro-life? Go support Tripwire before the mob puts them out of business.
