More than 70 recipients of The Game Awards' Future Class are calling for a statement to be read at next week's The Game Awards, on their behalf, in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.

I'm not sure what you're on about. A game event has a relatively small audience, and that audience doesn't have any particular edge in effecting change vs the public as large. So protest in public where more people are watching. You're just going to get a lot of people rolling their eyes at this kind of event.
