    @Alphastream @darjr @btmoo Got into a discussion about this on a Discord server.

    It was the D&D fiction team, not the D&D rules/game book team.

    And they were part of the layoffs from Hasbro, not fired.

    Frankly, considering the guy says in the video they were laid off and not fired AND this guy’s done this clickbait crap in the past, Hasbro/WotC should start sending C&Ds for defamation since they’re knowingly lying.

      As if anyone’s been making the distinction between “laid off” and “fired” when talking about these corporate restructurings.

      They lost their jobs. They no longer work there. That’s what they’re saying, and that’s what they’re trying to say. Words have different connotations in different contexts, and those contexts can be inferred by listening to the other words that they’ve said.
