The Stop Killing Games initiative announced not too long ago that it had accrued and validated the necessary number of signatures to be heard out by the EU parliament via the Stop Destroying Videogames EU citizen’s initiative. According to a new video put out by activist and spokesperson for the movement, Ross Scott, key players in the movement have been hard at work in the background since that announcement, and that there has been progress since that update, although not all of it positive. The first important note is that the Stop Destroying Games citizen’s initiative already has a date secured to present its case to the EU Commission, but despite this, it seems to have already had an impact on EU lawmakers.
I’m still confused why they chose two different names. StopKillingGames and StopDestroyingVideogames.
SDV is the EU Citizens initiative, which has the same goals but is otherwise mostly independent of SKG to avoid political affiliations being used against them.
What political affiliations would be used against them if they were just part of SKG?
Lobbyism, populism, meddling in voting, whatever the hell else they can make up. Politics isn’t about truth, it’s about accusations.
Why can’t SKG do those things? They all seem… oh. ROSS IS AN AMERICAN. I see.
Ross doesn’t have EU citizenship yet so he can’t participate in the EU initiative, having different names makes it more clear they are 2 different things.
