PSA to all accounts looking to follow me. If you have ZERO posts, replies, or media aside from RTs then you will be removed & blocked accordingly as a bot account. I don't care whether you have a blue check or not. If you aren't actively discussing on threads, you're GONE
@acealexander231@Cyael Got suspended again on the 1st during the bot purge due to the system mistaking me for a bot account, so yeah I've lost the ability to post twice already
I'm not getting Premium again anytime soon
@acealexander231@Cyael Lol not farming engagement or rage baiting...that's not my thing believe it or not
Used to have the checkmark, then got suspended for almost half a year...didn't want to get it back if it's that easy to get deplatformed
I didn't even violate TOS
@ItBillyGote@balist2again@SmashJT@Cyael Sounds like a baseless claim to me, because I fail to see how that would even happen with how it was intended
Nothing against you or the people involved in your story, but if I had to venture a guess, I'd say it was merely them getting denied the job based on qualifications
@ItBillyGote@balist2again@SmashJT@Cyael Contrast that with DEI, and it's a completely different story, because DEI favors minorities and women, but nobody else
@ItBillyGote@balist2again@SmashJT@Cyael Prior to that, it was used to force older business owners who were still prejudiced against Black people into hiring them to prevent discrimination
But the difference is, Affirmative Action did NOT keep White people from getting a job, so it was a net positive for both sides
@ItBillyGote@balist2again@SmashJT@Cyael AFAIK there's only ever been 2 which I've already mentioned
The former of the 2 was discontinued after the federal law was passed that prevents discrimination based on race, gender, religion or creed at places of work
@ItBillyGote@balist2again@SmashJT@Cyael Modern as in it's essentially the same policy, only now it's expanded to encompass more people
Affirmative Action is no longer in practice AFAIK, so DEI is the modern day equivalent, because it didn't even exist 15+ years ago
@ItBillyGote@balist2again@SmashJT@Cyael Yes and they also do hire recommendations as well as firing
Their job is to ensure they hire more people like them, and the undesirables aka the straight white people get pushed out/kept out
@ItBillyGote@balist2again@SmashJT@Cyael I'm fairly certain that the people with dyed hair were part of the committee because a good portion of them work in HR and management as well
@ItBillyGote@balist2again@SmashJT@Cyael Decisions in game dev are done by committee in most cases, but when the game flops everyone puts the blame on the management, yet the grunts are always the ones to get the axe
@ItBillyGote@balist2again@SmashJT@Cyael I've seen people post group pictures of devs at various companies now vs before the games were trash in a side by side, and the vast majority are now women & trans people, as well as a handful of soy boys
Ubisoft being one of them, as well as Sucker Punch, etc.
@balist2again@ItBillyGote@SmashJT@Cyael You're assuming that was a picture of game devs which is not at all what I said
I stated that the devs LOOKED LIKE THIS
@ItBillyGote@balist2again@SmashJT@Cyael I said "looked like" as in many of the developers are much the same as what you see in the picture
It was used as a reference...at NO POINT did I say it was a pic of the devs themselves
@ItBillyGote@balist2again@SmashJT@Cyael Don't even...it's a well known fact that activist libtards and trans people have completely taken over many of the companies that make games and they've been shoveling this slop out for over 10 years now & quite frankly I'm beyond sick of seeing it
All in the name of DEI/ESG $$
@balist2again@SmashJT@Cyael When game developers are people who look like this, of course the games they make are going to have tons of purple and LGBT characters
