Yep, it's awful, but it can be hard to get across that point and the disgust at other people's lack of empathy all in 240 characters. You are totally right though.
Totally, we just shouldn't equate overtime to crunch because it perpetuates the idea that crunch is overtime and since overtime is often normal and fine, crunch is fine. need to avoid semantic arguments where possible, given how reactionary some gamers are :(

Agreed! The problem with debating over twitter is that it's hard to make a nuanced take on something in 240 characters, especially when regarding a problem like crunch which is so multi-faceted. Unfortunately, a lot of gamers only care about their new game, not workers rights.

I think the thing is that there are a lot of people who "crunch" on a regular basis working 60+ hrs on a job or working two full-time jobs, some involving manual labor. This type of crunch, though mentallu exhausting, is essentially just sitting in front of a screen for hours.
