I got to see some folks I follow who I thought were left leaning out themselves as crypto-chuds with the recent news though. "well now that the news of a single company being responsible for diversity in games has been outed, you should know that blackrock invests in sweet baby inc. and it's actually blackrock and also vanguard who are responsible for the forced diversity in games, and we all know who their CEOs are"
gamers so brain broken they think aaa studios outsource their games protagonist
this article is important but also just. incredibly depressing. why are Gamers like this? why are they so vitriolic? i don't get it. it makes me sad. it makes me wonder if i'd get harassed for working on something that weirdo nerds consider "woke"

i just knew sweet baby from them making some cool games for the playdate
its cool that theyre consulting on bigger games, i didnt even know that
it sucks that people just think theyre bad for no reason??
weh
