Video game company EA Sports has announce that it will remove all Russian teams from its games “in solidarity with the Ukrainian people”.
The company made the announcement on social media, saying that it is working in line with FIFA, the global football body that has banned Russia from competing in future tournaments.
The company also announced it will remove Russian and Belarusian teams from its NHL games:
The move is part of a spate of pointless virtue signaling that won’t do anything to help Ukrainians or prevent war.
Fact check: video games are not real life.
