To be fair to them, they had to. It would have been pretty much suicide to not even though it was obvious. They would have lost most if not all their sponsors

I agree though, they're still cucked regardless. It's that exact mind set (I had to or I would lose sponsors!) that gives these idiots so much power in the first place. But when your income is on the line, it's hard to not do it. The real problem is the sponsors who would have backed out due to pressure.

It's a tough situation that pretty much leaves people who have fuck you money or based sponsors who are able to speak their mind

I think it's time we turn this culture war around though, and bowing down at the slightest bit of pressure won't do it
