Almost everything Goons do is - self-avowedly, no less - an attempt to show people that all actions they take have consequences, and not neccessarily ones they'll like, either.
I'm amused that Goons are reacting so negatively to the undesirable consequences that actions they took precipitated.

But this isn't about CCP punishing people for exploits they weren't told about. This is about CCP punishing Goons for exploits they weren't told about.

I'd be OK with all of that.

When a child is violated are you not appalled?
Yet when that child is a goon you cheer?
Wow, you've got a well-constructed strawman here, in which you compare Goons to children and the punishment they received to sexual assault.

Not only did he make a comparison to child abuse right after invoking the goons by name, he made a direct connection to goons by saying "if that child is a goon". So yeah, he directly compared CCP punishing goons for exploiting to child abuse. I concede that may not actually be a strawman, but it's certainly a false and misleading comparison.

Clearly.
