Wouldn't even try a demo now.

 

[Tajaz2426]

I was going to write about this from a psychology point of view, because that is my wheel house.

However, this fucker is just a racist piece of shit. No other words needed.

 

[GermanZepp]

LOL I just can't imagine the golden medals of mental gymnastics at the purple place to justify this.

 

[lughnasadh123]

I don't understand how someone could feel that way.
Can't imagine someone acting on that particularly in a position of power.
I'm fucking stumped someone would just blatantly say it like that's somehow ok in any way.

Gaming for and from a diverse group of people can be an excellent thing. Thanks to her own racism she just took a giant shit all over the movement for it. Now we get to see how the broader discussion of this plays out. Going to predict a lot of people showing their ass on it.

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

We did. Its called the 14th Amendment.

True, but it ain't stopping it.

 

[reinking]

I find that when people have to keep repeating that "that is not what I am saying." That is exactly what they are saying.

Also, way to take that microaggression to a macro-level.

 

[Skifi28]

The funniest thing, is we'll all be there when the game fails and the same people that were basically saying "don't buy our game if you're white" will be blaming their failure on racism. Just not their own.


Edit: What was that DC show where the protagonist was yelling for men not to watch it and after it failed it was blamed on sexism? These are the vibes I'm getting.

 

[Shut0wen]

Not defending this cretin but this vid is old and there are people who are working on black panther that are white, infact a majority are white

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

Glad to see people like her being exposed. Lets hope EA fires her ass.

She's doing what EA tells her.
They empowered her.

 

[Mister Wolf]

These "Black people can't be racist" folks deserve all the ire coming their way. The crazy part is I don't expect her to be fired. Black women are one of the most protected class of people in America. Free from any criticism or consequence. The late Kevin Samuels and many others talk about this all the time.

 

[GloveSlap]

Institutional racism as they say

Cue the backflips through the flaming head of a needle to try to explain how it still doesn't apply.

 

[Shake Your Rump]

I don't know if I have ever sincerely thought someone was racist, outside of maybe Donald Trump.

This lady is straight up racist. I don't say this lightly or as a joke. This is so goddamn blatantly racist.

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

Not defending this cretin but this vid is old and there are people who are working on black panther that are microaggressors, infact a majority are microaggressors

ftfy

 

[fart town usa]

The thing that is so frustrating about this is that gaming and Hollywood were absolutely cranking out total gems for all audiences. Everything was great.

I grew up watching Keenan & Kel, Family Matters, Sister Sister. Playing games that had women protagonists and people of all colors. There are generations in America that grew up in a colorless entertainment industry and no one was being silenced. It was amazing.

We now have people cheering on segregation and pre-genocide narratives. It's absolutely disgusting and anyone investing in this nonsense should be absolutely boycotted to the fullest extent possible. Contact America First legal on X and tag Elon Musk, there are civil liberty defenders who are starting to go the lawfare route. Making these people hurt financially is the only way to end this madness.

 

[JordiENP]

This is what Nintendo needs to do for the next zelda game.




.sike.

 

[reinking]

If she's only hiring black people, that's based. They'll probably have more in common with each other so it absolutely makes sense.

If it's all people of color (lmao at the term), then she just simply dislikes white people.
Which I still think is a fair opinion, but that's another topic.

The law is about exclusion based on race which is exactly what she did. I hate people like her. Not because she did not hire "whitey" but because it created this narrative about exclusion. I find that counter-productive to creating the "safe" working environment she desires.

 

[Shake Your Rump]

would be pretty messed up indeed if a white person said they only hired white people because they felt safer.

This. Imagine if you simply reversed the words "white" and "black" in her statement. Even black people would be calling for the firing of this black woman.

Right, you can't relate to their mindset. It should be no surprise why these people see "racism" in everything as well.

Thank you son

 

[Insane Metal]

What a world we live in.

 

[danklord]

This is how you create inclusive, safe spaces. So important. So brave.

 

[Dazraell]

Jesus, what a racist prick

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

Wow she seems awful. Wouldn't want to work with her, anyways

 

[Sybrix]

Disgusting, why is this type of racism aloud?

Or why isn’t this considered racist?

 

[Kindela]

That is still illegal. Your post is stupid.

I know it's illegal, but it shouldn't be. You should be able to hire/not hire people in a private company based on whatever you want.

 

[Aenima]

micro-aggression?

Its when you slap someone with your pinky finger?

 

[SEGAvangelist]

This is some sick shit. May she burn in hell.

 

[Kilau]

EA has a choice to make, they've cancelled games for less.

EA will have a complex contract with Marvel, not a game they can simply walk away from. Really come to think of it, Marvel could have hand picked this lady.

 

[rofif]

dude wtf she is nuts. racist fuck

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Tip for all people: the most racist people are always the ones who take about race and purposely hire people/school admissions etc. based on race.

Avoid these low brow numbnuts like the plague.

 

[Sweden85]

Will not touch this game made by racists. Lol

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

Disgusting, why is this type of racism aloud?

Or why isn’t this considered racist?

It is. There's no such thing as reverse racism. It's just called racism, regardless of whether the person committing it is white or not.

 

[Andrew Evenstar]

it's already way past time to ignore most aspects of western / usa culture.

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

I know it's illegal, but it shouldn't be. You should be able to hire/not hire people in a private company based on whatever you want.

I'm fine with it being illegal because it's fucking retarded

 

[TheInfamousKira]

I enjoy how, when put up to an ounce of scrutiny (and sometimes without, see: this chick) these people can't go literally thirty seconds without contradicting not only themselves, but the entire cause they're championing. Amazeballs frfr str8 fire

 

[Putonahappyface]

Another fucking putrid game I'll be avoiding.

 

[cash_longfellow]

I’m pretty sure that’s illegal…at least in the states. Although I’m not sure where they are located and I don’t respect them enough to even check.

 

[Chris_Rivera]

This game will never come out.

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

Hopefully EA has been linked repeatedly to her post

 

[cash_longfellow]

I know it's illegal, but it shouldn't be. You should be able to hire/not hire people in a private company based on whatever you want.

This is the dumbest take I’ve ever heard in my life. Not hiring a more qualified and experienced person because they are a certain ethnicity or sex is bigotry and has no place in any kind of legit company, Private or not,

 

[Aenima]

I know it's illegal, but it shouldn't be. You should be able to hire/not hire people in a private company based on whatever you want.

If they hired ppl based on they skills, mabye there were better games out there.

 

[Bernardougf]

micro-aggression?

Is like micro penis .. but i dont know anything about those.. I swear

 

[Angry_Megalodon]

I know it's illegal, but it shouldn't be. You should be able to hire/not hire people in a private company based on whatever you want.

You can hire people based on whatever you want. But you cannot reject someone based only on sex, race, or ideology. This is a criminal offense in every Western country since it breaches the most basic human rights.

If you fail to understand something so simple, you have serious issues.

 

[TastyPastry]

need to see proof that she is the deal dev on black panther but what the fuck

 

[Nickolaidas]

These motherfuckers took over the entire industry and they will crush it.

And I couldn't be happier. The harder they ruin everything, the harder it will be to ever again be employed, once the dust settles.
The pendulum is starting to swing and it's beautiful.

 

[TrippleA345]

Of course not all black people are like this, but the younger generation is full of this nonsense. College campuses now have black only graduation ceremonies, black only orientations, black only dorms. In universities like Harvard and MIT no less.

NO WAY HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[marjo]

I'm all for real diversity and inclusion, but this is literally the opposite of that.

 

[Red Crayon Aristocrat]

Everything wrong with the world today is this kind of racism and the fact that this is seen as ok and not racism.

I'm sick of living in a society that thinks it's ok to be racist towards me.

 

[Windom Earle]

Important to note that this is specifically about the dev team she lead for the ValiDate game a few years back, not the current black panther game.

Still a bad look tho.

lmao wtf is this shit. Literal ResetEra simulator.
