Gender/pronoun roulette and a daily changing alphabetic affiliation is the new religion.I used to think organised religion was bad......but this pride stuff is something else.
All of this superficial support stuff is ridiculous, I'm gay and I couldn't care less about a company PR team turning a logo to a rainbow flag. I love that we live in a time where people in general are more supportive or at least less hateful than they were when I was a kid growing up in the 80's. I'm glad younger people now don't have to worry (as much) about being beaten up for being gay at school and that society as a whole seems to be moving in the right direction, at the same time we've gone way overboard with these ridiculous gestures. As long as EA treats their gay employees with the same respect as their straight employees that's all that matters IMO.[/URL]
What say you GAF? Personally, I find it sad that we live in a world like this.
People are full of it because they don’t like pride month?This seems like a legitimately good way to approach this. Either you back up your fake performative support with deeds or cut the bullshit. If I'm interpreting it right, the employees are in the right here and all the people in this thread saying goodbye are just as full of it as EA was making their logo rainbow for the month.
The sad part is that has nothing to do with being gay but we are all lumped into the same group. I have nothing against trans people but I have nothing in common with them, I have no desire to be a different gender yet I'm put into the same category.Gender/pronoun roulette and a daily changing alphabetic affiliation is the new religion.
Yep, gets to fucking stepping. Tired of the ass kissing as if their golden gods.
I'm straight, and I have no problem with anybody tying their genitals in knots or who they fuck(within reason, come on people), but some of these people, the way they constantly talk about gender, it's like all they think about is fucking/their genitals ALL THE TIME, way more than a person should.The sad part is that has nothing to do with being gay but we are all lumped into the same group.

They no longer have to manage utilities and other community services and will have millions in debt paid off by the state? Worked out pretty well if you ask me.Ask Disney how virtue signaling at gunpoint worked out for them.

Wait am I reading this right? It was basically:
Employee: “we should stage a walkout if all they do is make a rainbow company logo and don’t make any more significant statements about pride!”
EA: “we’re not changing the logo”
Employee: “oh…. Ok cancel the walkout”
Almost seems like what they really wanted was to score some virtue signaling points by calling EA out for rainbow-washing, only to be secretly disappointed when the rainbow-washing didn’t occur.
While I am a leftist and a European which apparently makes me view corporations quite... bad contrary to the average American, this is pure lunacy, people here struggle to get the bare minimum in terms of wages, work hours, and work places yet there are people that have time to whine and protest about things like that, I guess it's so damned important to brag about what we do in our bedrooms nowadays.
And, mind you, I heavily support LGBTQ when they fight against discrimination and for their rights.
Full of it because they just react without thinking or trying to understand. They read the title, don't investigate any further and pass judgement.People are full of it because they don’t like pride month?
Stop being a bigot, you go over and ask them their gender/sexual orientation, then hurry back and shoot them.How do they pick which coloured bullet to use?
Fair enough. We could all use a reminder to read beyond the headline.Full of it because they just react without thinking or trying to understand. They read the title, don't investigate any further and pass judgement.
Yeah I heard about this. This stuff is psychotic.CRT at work.
Look at this nonsense. FIRE THESE PEOPLE!!!! Back to xbox online: "You just got fucked up killed you fa**ot."
This is also our chance to be truly intersectional by celebrating the vast array of people and identities that make up the vibrant Xbox LGBTQIA+ global gaming communities. It is more important than ever to recognize that systems of inequity based on gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, class, and other forms of discrimination intersect and ultimately affect us all. The global issues that LGBTQIA+ communities face are interconnected and we must seek to address them together.
Wow, I just noticed that MS is giving money to Mermaids! They're under review.
Here what that horrible organization has done to poor children in the past. That's worse than Cuties with Netflix.Charity 'advised mum to force her son, 7, to live as a girl'
Mermaids UK also reportedly offered controversial same-day hormone therapy for kidsmetro.co.uk

Leave it to video game employees to bring politics to their workplace. I was thinking the Xbox article would be from some canned PR release by the company.by Kate Rayner, Vice President, Technical Director at The Coalition and Member of Team Xbox LGBTQIA+
It's so obvious this woke stuff is the new religion for people. There's no way it gets this powerful and completely takes over so many facets of American society otherwise. Politics, arts, the justice system, education, the military - everything is under assault.Gender/pronoun roulette and a daily changing alphabetic affiliation is the new religion.
Now were talking.Lack of support here is disturbing. Here's something for representation.
It's the Marines. They're more likely to eat those thinking they're crayons.How do they pick which coloured bullet to use?
Lefties think they don't need religion and have outgrown it, but they're basically no different to 5000-year-old hebrews worshipping false idols. It's pretty ironic.
It is real. And a real issue with US military not focusing on killing and breaking thingsPlease tell me this is real and not a parody account.
That's weird people for ya. Down and outers looking for attention."My stances are worthless, unless they are backed by corporations and strangers on the internet."
This perpetual need to get one's inclinations/choices/opinions not only amplified through social media, but also, and especially validated by governments and firms alike, shows how infantile and insecure the western world has become.
