It is starting to feel like the 1920s.

Over the weekend a youtuber did an unboxing video for the newest Magic the Gathering cards he received early by accident. Instead of contacting the man WOTC sent the fucking Pinkertons to his house. Who does that?

Hasbro apparently but their financials are in the toilet.

Also the Pinkertons have no legal authority and actually are banned from working for the government thanks to the Anti-Pinkerton Act of 1893.  If you tell them to fuck off and they try to enter your home, you are within your rights to shoot to kill.

The Pinkertons? The predecessor to the FBI?

Hasbro did a dick move but at least they offered him some items for the incident and the dude’s views doubled since it happened 

other than that, yeah, between the political shit going down and now this, def makes it feel like we’re back in the ass end of the 20th century
