When I decided to create the Steam curator Sweet Baby Inc. Detected, my goal was to warn players about people who wanted to turn video games into tools for ideological messaging and political propaganda.
Things escalated far beyond anything I ever imagined and today, terms like DEI are widely known across the global gaming community.
We have also seen Sweet Baby Inc. become increasingly secretive, and having your game associated with Sweet Baby Inc. has effectively become a badge of shame, leading to significant losses in sales and reputation among gamers.
Over the past few weeks, I have been watching the industry's movements closely, and the reemergence of Anita Sarkeesian as a relevant figure is deeply concerning. This is someone who has already done far too much damage to the video game industry with her toxic and hateful ideas, combined with the influence she somehow still holds within the industry.
I see a situation very similar to what we had with Sweet Baby Inc.: a malicious individual trying to use video games to spread twisted and hateful ideologies, using gaming as a vehicle for propaganda.
That is why I have decided to start including games connected to Anita Sarkeesian in the Sweet Baby Inc. Detected curator.
We need not only to warn players that the game they are thinking about buying may be helping fund Anita Sarkeesian's disgusting work, but also to send a clear message to the industry that WE WILL NOT ACCEPT OUR ENTERTAINMENT BEING TURNED INTO PROPAGANDA. PERIOD.
However, I cannot do this alone, not this time. Unlike Sweet Baby Inc., Anita Sarkeesian does not provide a ready made list of games she has worked on through her official website. She does list clients, but not specific games. And I simply cannot spend endless hours every day tracking down and investigating these titles anymore. Life happens. Bills need to be paid, and I have to focus on work that actually brings financial return. I am being completely honest with you here.
But I know many of you can help track these games down. To get things started, I have added Slay the Spire 2 to the Sweet Baby Inc. Detected curator.
If you can help identify more titles connected to her, please email me at [email protected]. Only games with undeniable proof of her involvement will be added. As always, I do not want to be unfair to anyone, nor do I want to spread false information.
ROUND 2 BEGINS NOW!
If Mixtape wins a single awar no one should ever take the Game Awards seriously again. Really, in a year with RE9, Pragmata, Nioh 3, Mouse P.I. if this industry plant ass game steals a single nomination I'm rioting.
I don't read so going to a bookstore and seeing all these books lined up with some fuckhead's name in huge letters and the actual book name being tiny as fuck pisses me off because why the fuck should I care? Do I have to go through 2000000 words before learning to give a fuck?
@deadlock_8 "Wahhh someone in my game said Graves is hot they are pedooooos". I would rather have them than the insufferable puppygirls yelling "EVERY CHARACTER IS GAY AND TRANS :3".
The #Frieren Season 2 OST is out today! From peaceful tracks to big exciting ones, I had a lot of fun continuing the musical world of Frieren. Check out “First-Class Mage” for some super epic action, or “The Golden Land” to get ready for season 3! It’s what Himmel would do! ↓↓
How rich- he certainly couldn't give me the benefit of the doubt, but that courtesy is allotted when he committed equally, and clearly more egregious "unacceptable" "mistakes" and "bigotry" on far more occasions than I did...if we're holding him to his own standards, of course. Set my him.
No, instead, he sicked his audience on me, to mass report me and get me banned off Twitter.
What was that, Solarlight? Wielding my audience as a mace to attack smaller youtubers? When I've never once done this, unlike you did to me at the time when I had a fraction of your following?
The difference between you and me is that I'm not a hypocritical spineless worm, and I won't send my audience to mass report you. I will, however, air out your hypocrisy.
