Playstation boss Jim Ryan apparently does not want to hit one side if questions of physical self-determination and integrity. In an internal email, the CEO explains that with regard to the impending abortion ban in the United States, it is important to respect different opinions. This was obviously not well received by many employees. But not only because the controversial PlayStation boss does not take a position here and apparently would not have a problem with a ban on abortion, but also because the rest of the email deals with the pets of the CEO.

PlayStation boss sends questionable mail and employees react angrily

Extremely questionable email: The PlayStation boss Jim Ryan has again lived up to his reputation as a controversial personality by sending an email to his own workforce, in which it briefly about the impending US abduction ban and very long His pets goes. That not only sounds absurd and strange, but is also. The people who received the mail react accordingly.

What is in it? Jim Ryan explains that with regard to the debate about the impending ban on abortions in the United States, it is important to respect all opinions equally – although this is about basic human rights, about physical Autonomy and self -determination. According to Jim Ryan, this respect for other opinions is not equivalent to approval, but that doesn’t make his problematic statements better either.

** The PlayStation boss proves particularly little sensitivity by writing for the first birthday of his cats in the rest of the email. Because it is important to distract yourself with a little ease in difficult times like this. He reports in detail about the Katzengeburt Day cake and that he is thinking about getting a dog. Because dogs are the best friend of humans and also “know their place” and “useful functions like burglars bite”.

That’s what it’s about: The USA threatens to return to a real abortion ban. A leak, which has now been confirmed as a real one, indicates that the Supreme Court could decide accordingly and the so-called “Roe VS Wade” jurisdiction tilts. Which would result in high penalties on abortions in many US states. Even after children rapes, abortions would not be allowed and could be punished higher than rape itself.

There were even efforts to impose the death penalty for abortions, even if they have so far failed (via Reuters). The underlying, Christian-foundal argumentation does not stop at contraceptives and, for example, could also punish the so-called “pill afterwards”. You can read more about this at the Süddeutsche or see this last Week Tonight-Video.

Incidentally, Sony’s developer studio Bungie in a blog post has very clearly commented on the whole matter and also received a lot of more positive reactions. Bungie calls the impending decision a “direct attack on human rights” and positions itself clearly for legal, safe and uncomplicated abortions.
