From the GOG newsletter: "A note about your GOG Patrons subscription"

Transcription as alt text for the image.

#GOG

**Dear Patron,** We want to let you know that due to a technical issue on our end, at least one of your GOG Patrons monthly subscription was not charged. We've since identified and resolved the problem. **Here's what this means for you:** • Your next subscription charge will go through as normal. • We will **NOT** retroactively bill you for the missed​period — consider it on us. • You don't need to take any action. ​We appreciate your continued support of GOG Patrons, and we're sorry for any confusion this may have caused. Warm regards, **The GOG Team**

Dear patron,
in light of the recent bad publicity for shining a light on our Nazi leanings, we've decided that we can't afford any more bad publicity at the moment, and are highlighting how cool and good we are by eating a small financial mistake we made.
Rest assured that if we couldn't financially afford to do this we wouldn't be allowing you to keep your free month.

Best,

    Do you have a source for that claim?

    Of their knowing sharing of Nazi imagery? Yes.

    There is quite literally a source posted directly above you. Stop flaming, calm down and take in new information. This was a very well publicized story.

    The apology doesn't substantially address how the symbols wound up in the email in the first place. The problem with the runes isn't their placement, it's that they are explicitly and indelibly associated with Nazis and white supremacists. Just as with the swastika, their meaning prior to the Third Reich is irrelevant: The Nazi links are too clear and prevalent to pretend that any other connection is equally meaningful.

    A source was already shared hours before you decided to be a dick. Fuck off and read it.

    Disabilities as insults? That makes sense for you, tbh. My instinct was right: you're genuinely a bad person.

    Get blocked, loser.

    Lol you're the one spewing insults as a maniac (in maniac good enough for you?) because you don't have the mental capacity to respond in a normal way. Moron is maybe better, or is that too bad too for mr sensitive snowflake?

    A source has already been shared, hours ago. You're clearly just trying to be antagonizing.

    Not at all, you were the one who said you had a source. So I wanted your source. I've read the ones other people posted. But you are the one antagonizing, because you started this whole source discussion, yet you seem to be the only one who isn't providing one. You're just talking shit and letting everyone else try to back you up.

    You wanna parrot what you "heard" and expect others to back you up, but when I ask you for a source, I want yours. But sure, sit on that high horse if you want, but everyone else can see it's not a horse, it's an ass.
