              Lmao they laid off 1900 from Activision Blizzard last year and shuttered multiple XBox game studios this month! Sure, I suppose they could all just hang around and work as volunteers, but I suspect they’ll be doing that exodus thing.

                Mass firing is not an exodus. Exodus is when people are fleeing, and generally in terms of liberation. Firing people is just firing people

                  No definition I’ve ever heard requires an exodus to be initiated by the people leaving. Also, if you read the comment that started all this, I was explicit that I didn’t mean employee-led. So thanks for stopping by weeks later to display your ignorance and/or lack of reading comprehension.

                    Someone on the internet hasn’t heard it so that must be wrong then!

                    Save your saltiness for 9gag, friend. I saw that you specifically wrote that but you also continued using exodus in the first sense, as the one you replied to did. But you just wanted to be snarky to that person I guess.
