so the cards died without even raytracing. A life without raytracing, a life without meaning. That's just sad  ?

This was confirmed by YouTuber Taofledermaus, who was leaving a comment on another youtuber's video when he noticed that his comment was changed from what it originally was.

Very close to MSRP in some cases (thank god)
 
Seeing an RX580 8gb under $300 is a relieving sight

Whether the competition is sub-par or not isn't the issue here, and it by no means justifies potentially anti consumer practices.
Also, keep in mind that the landscape can change in a matter of a couple of years, this would be a potential "shoot yourself in the foot" move.
Well that's fucking great!  I find this statement a bit odd though, especially coming from MSI.
MSI had the largest selection of Ryzen motherboards when the platform fires came out.  That should say something about MSI's opinion about the company.
while that may be in regards to AMD's CPU's only, it still doesn't make sense for me.
 
Although I would like to point out another quote from the article.
Keep that in mind, this person is probably not stating MSI's opinion as a whole.
But definitely keep this in mind as well.  This is unprofessional at best.  Although the statements may very well give us a glimpse on what Nvidia is trying to do.

UPDATE:
Thanks to @Ryujin2003 for providing the information.
MSI responded to the Facebook post.

Not surprising, not sure if they are sincere, or if they are doing damage control.
After taking a look at MSI's website, I can confirm that there are Gaming X branded Radeon GPUs
https://us.msi.com/Graphics-card/Radeon-RX-580-GAMING-X-Plus-8G
https://us.msi.com/Graphics-card/Radeon-RX-570-GAMING-X-4G

No Gaming X Vega cards, but i'm not sure if MSI made custom Vega cards in the first place.

To play devil's advocate here I think that consumers also need to get this message. Next time a consumer wants to write a bad review because their provider was "giving them a hard time", hopefully they'll STFU and consider that all of the hoops they just jumped through because they forgot their password was to protect them and not because the rep thought it would be funny.

So this is about someone who used SMS two factor and T-mobile gave his SIM to some attacker, allowing them to get his codes, even after he had tried to setup additional security with them to avoid this exact thing?  Hm, sounds familiar doesn't it?
 
Well if I am understanding that correctly, I hope this guy wins the lawsuit, and I hope he gets his money back plus a large bonus.  Not because I really think this guy deserves it (on that I am rather indifferent), but because it might finally send a message to these incompetent providers that this kind of thing does happen, it has serious consequences, and they can and will be held responsible.
