For those who haven't been paying attention, Hong Kongers are desperate for freedom. These have been some of the largest and longest-running demonstrations of a people who want to be free of an oppressor in all of history. 25%+ population participation, going for months on end.

Problem: Epic's largest shareholder is Tencent.

Tencent, being a company under the purview of the oppressive, totalitarian, mass-murdering Communist Chinese government, will likely push for censorship even harder than the spineless cowards at the NBA or Blizzard have.... and every dollar that goes to Epic helps indirectly support Tencent and the continued influence of Communist China on our media and businesses.
I hope that some companies (and PGI may not be capable of this) will disengage from Epic and other Chinese-dominated partners as a stand for freedom, and as a show of support for HongKongers. I am not optimistic.
