Call of Duty faces calls for boycott after cracking down on streamer over LGBTQ comments

 

The company's decision to remove the bundle prompted several streamers to urge their followers to uninstall the game and boycott Activision, which makes Call of Duty.

 

Popular video game franchise "Call of Duty" is facing a prospective boycott after cracking down on a streamer who asserted that the LGBT movement ought to refrain from targeting children.

 

Streamer Nickmercs last week commented on a video depicting a clash between competing groups in Glendale, Calif., over a school board vote on recognizing pride month.

 

"This happened 4 blocks from my Overwatch League apartment. Americans are in a sad place right now. Let people love who they love and live your own life," wrote streamer Puckett, to which Nickmercs replied "They should leave little children alone. That’s the real issue."

 

The official Call of Duty Twitter account later confirmed that "Due to recent events, we have removed the 'NICKMERCS Operator' bundle from the Modern Warfare II and Warzone store. We are focused on celebrating PRIDE with our employees and our community."

 

Nickmercs was one of two streamers to recently receive their own merchandise bundle in the game. The other, TimTheTatman, asked that the company remove his bundle in solidarity with Nickmercs, a request with which the company complied.
