Does anyone know of any specific examples of people who got fired from their jobs (especially in the gaming industry) because some nutjob Twitter user went through their internet history and found that they posted something that goes against the liberal cult, possibly years prior? Things like if they said they voted Trump, didn't support trans people, etc. Bonus points if their employer made a public apology for hiring that person.

Sam Hyde - had a show on Adult Swim that was cancelled before its first season ended due to him being on the right.
JonTron - had his cameo appearance in the game Yooka Laylee removed as well as losing some sponsors after he came out as a pro GamerGate right winger while debating destiny over race realism.
Tim Soret - developer of the game Last Night was cancelled by Zoe Quinn after his pro GamerGate tweets from 2014 were dug up. His game has been in development hell since then.
Diversity And Comics/YaBoiZack - is a comic book youtuber who had a campaign for his comic sabotaged by industry veteran and rabid SJW Mark Waid who petitioned to get his publisher to drop him.
Wasen't there a lawsuit by YaBoiZack for tortious interference? What happened?
To the best of my ability here's my memory of it: Despite the near daily hype by some internet lawyer who kept folks up to date with the case (and raked in a lot of donations) eventually most people realized Zack's lawyer was all hat and no cattle (sucked bigly.) During covid lockdown Richard Meyer (Zack) dismisses the case voluntarily, neither party admitting liability or responsibility.
So basically Mark Waid won even though he did contact a comic book distributor to tell them not to work with Zack. Zack won by having the public fund the lawsuit, gain viewers and sold a shitload of comic books in the process. GamerGate and ComicGate lost because shit lawyer and Zack didn't hold up their end of the bargain and see it through. Simping for some justice and didn't even get to see the titties.
I never brought another RCM book afterwards. Also sold my autographed copies at a profit, so thanks yaboi.
IIRC it was dropped because ironically YaBoiZack ended up being very successful despite Mark Waid's interference.
With something like tortious interference you have to prove major damages.
to specify, Jon was accused of being a white supremacist (despite being an iranian? don't remember too well, immigrant) after saying that rich blacks commit more crimes than poor whites, which is simply a correct statement lmao
Yeah hes half Iranian and half Hungarian. I remember even some leftists were criticizing him because his middle name is Aryan lol.
Even though he was correct, the problem was hes very much a layman on the subject and came off as a bumbling goof when arguing with Destiny, whos notorious for arguing in bad faith by constantly filibustering and moving the goal posts. Leftists are also too scared to verify their opponents claims, especially the one Jon was arguing since you can no longer rely on "muh socio-economic conditions" to excuse black criminality when even richer blacks commit a higher rate of crime.
