Good to see Calandra getting blasted publicly, the man is a humongous piece of shit so I hope yahtzee follows suit and I can go back to watching his stuff too.

Gonna sub to frost meanwhile.

Never heard of this dude before, but I’m getting some serious second-hand-catharsis for the public naming-and-shaming Frost gave him on his way out.

I’ve left a couple jobs angry, but always bite my tongue.

It’s soothes my bitter heart to see someone burn the bridge and also take a shit on the ashes.

He's a culture war brained team sports guy who has his own doxing server and has sent actually organized harassment campaigns against the families of people he is beefing with online.

That guy shouldn't manage a Target, let alone have a platform.

What the fuck? How did I never heard of this let alone his name?!

[–] MolochAlter@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

He's objectively not that important of a person.

He's the EIC of a tiny journalistic outlet that basically lives off of one or two of its content creators' clout (one of whom was Frost), and a terminally online asshole on his own time.

Good for Frost for getting rid of that albatross, basically; Calandra is about as useful as a sawblade made of dicks, his survival in the public sphere is entirely predicted on people wanting to work for him, and any one person deciding not to is a step in the right direction.
