Political reasons =/= actual bad actors.

The person you're replying to made a case that a person with outsized influence is creating media to stir resentment for attention and your conclusion is "political reasons".

The word "political" always ends up meaning "don't talk about reactionaries throwing rocks"

You're moving the goalpost. I get that many people view Vincent Bolloré as a bad guy.

But him being a "far-right actor" or whatever that means doesn't excuse Sony's anti-consumer actions in the slightest, that's completely missing the point, and turning things political for no reason. And also a logical falacy.
