Take a look at the picture, can you imagine if it said "White and Caucasian" instead? Am I the only one who thinks this is racist, isn't this racial segregation? Everyone at Microsoft is drinking the woke Kool-Aid.

And are they intentionally racializing this? Absolutely. Here take 1 minute out of your day and watch this little clip where you will see Microsoft employees introduce themselves by stating their race and gender, you'll literally see a man say "hi, I'm a Caucasian man and I go by he/him". Microsoft has got to be one of the most woke companies in the world right now. It's ridiculous!!!!




Take a look at the second picture, I saw that on my Xbox main menu during Hispanic heritage month. Can you imagine if it said "Curated by White and Caucasian communities" instead? This is just racism plain and simple let's call it out for what it really is. Microsoft needs quit this bullsh*t.

Look up what heritage month October was.

Can you imagine if it said "Curated by White and Caucasian communities" instead? People would be f*cking rioting in the streets screaming RACIST!!!!!!

 

[IWasInSeinfeld]

Because now they can't be criticized for not doing that, it's about thinking 1 step ahead, because to them including such things in their promotional materials doesn't cost anything, in fact, they earn more because of the pander towards specific groups of people.

 

[svbarnard]

Can you imagine if it said "Curated by White and Caucasian" communities instead? People would be prostesting in the streets saying that's WHITE SUPREMACY!!!!! Microsoft needs stop racializing this.

Are you actually upset by this or just being a shit tier troll?

No wonder the world is an absolute shit show when people get offended by shit like this.

 

[Guilty_AI]

oh c'mon, no way you only just realized these people claiming progressivism are closet racists.

 

[reksveks]

And onto the ignore list

MS did this just to annoy dumbass Musk fans. Or maybe it was to give people choice.

Would you be offended if it said "Curated by White and Caucasian communities" instead?????

 

[kanjobazooie]

Edit: Wrong thread, but I might as well leave it here.

MS did this cause they're 100% woke as f*ck!!!!!!

 

[ACESHIGH]

MS is American. Is their thing. Even when they do what their call "affirmative action" still feels racist and cringy as fuck to the rest of the world.

I also blame the American think tanks and commiefornia/New dork city college campuses that export these ideologies to the rest of the world.

 

[Black_Stride]

Would you be offended if it said "Curated by White and Caucasian communities" instead?????

When is white heritage month?

Whenever that is they should absolutely put a Curated by White and Caucasian communities tab.


P.S
They didnt stop there.
They also decided to completely insulted the green rats by changing the classic green of the Xbox Nexus to this:

We cant keep letting them get away with this!
How dare they celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month.


It was bad enough these monsters even acknowledged Black History Month with their Black Voices community selection.
I forgave them for that because atleast they didnt completely get rid of the green on the Xbox Nexus so the green rats could still feel represented.

But now they also want to acknowledge Hispanic Heritage month......how dare they!

 

[Zug]

Racial profiling is constitutionnaly forbiden in France, which raises issues in some cases, but is at least providing a legal protection from this kind of bullshit.
The relation the US -and the anglo-saxon world to an extent- has with the "race" thing is increasingly offensive/annoying seen from here.

 

[pasterpl]

Another troll thread.

 

[Midnight Bliss]

The only people who complain about wokeness have nothing better to do. Legitimately who cares, I wouldn’t even know about this shit if it wasn’t for people complaining about. I’m sure microsoft appreciates the free marketing OP is doing

This is pretty much all that needs to be said. Thread's over. Greetings from Europe.

 

[FUBARx89]

Would you be offended if it said "Curated by White and Caucasian communities" instead?????

No. I wouldn't.

I couldn't give 2 shits how MS decide to organise their store. Neither should you.

 

[alabtrosMyster]

Because now they can't be criticized for not doing that, it's about thinking 1 step ahead, because to them including such things in their promotional materials doesn't cost anything, in fact, they earn more because of the pander towards specific groups of people.

I think they did not do enough to secure better hispanic and latinX representation on their platform, and what they have is based on detrimental stereotypical views.

 

[skyfall]

I mean I agree, but these are getting old now. Anti-white progressive sentiment has been the 'in' thing for like a decade+ in the west now. how are you shocked by this just now?

 

[A Most Virtuous Cat]

Yea makes one wonder; as much as they want racism to end, they sure do love segregating/ compartmentalizing stuff by race

 

[funkygunther]

do you still wonder why there's a mother's and father's day and you don't get a son's day?

 

[svbarnard]

Well it was hard for me not to notice it, because "Curated by Hispanic and Latino communities" was front and center on my Xbox main menu, right in front of my face. This racism plain and simple!!!!! How can you guys not see that this is racism?

 

[svbarnard]

do you still wonder why there's a mother's and father's day and you don't get a son's day?

Father's or mother's day has nothing to do with race!!!

 

[Graciaus]

No.

[Portugeezer]

Do you know what hispanic/latino is?

 

[Shadowstar39]

Look up what heritage month October was.

you mean this:

Now if you look at a google search , a few from the top here is ones from Houston Texas:
February- African American/Black History Month, American History Month
March- National Women’s History Month, Irish American Heritage Month, Greek American Heritage Month, Gender Equality Month, Texas History Month, Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, Ethnic Equality Month
April- Celebrate Diversity Month, National Arab American Heritage Month, Tartan (Scottish American) Heritage Month, Community Service Month, Earth Month, Autism Awareness Month
May- Asian/Pacific Heritage Month, Jewish American Heritage Month, South Asian Heritage Month, Haitian Heritage Month, Military Appreciation Month, Indian Heritage Month, Mental Health Month, Personal History Awareness Month, Speech and Hearing Awareness Month
June- LGBTQ Pride Month, Caribbean American Heritage Month, Black Music Month
July- French American Heritage Month, Independence Day (City’s celebration is back at Sam Houston Park in 2022)
August - Houston’s Birthday!
September- National Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15 - October 15); German American Heritage Month (September 15 - October 15), National Guide Dog Month
October- Family History Month, Italian American Heritage Month, National Family History Month, Filipino American Month, Polish American Month
November- Native American & Alaska Native Heritage Month, National Native American Heritage Month

Notice the difference between the two? One actually includes more people in general and isn't dedicated to "favored minorities" and lgbt doesn't get 2 months. Instead you got Family history, Italian, filipiono, Polish, German Native American French American, etc....

Now I am against all this crap, but if you are going to do it, do it for everyone. Or just I don't know don't do it at all. Just celebrate history.... but the diversity equity industrial complex will not have that. There is money to be made and mentally sick people to fleece.

IT does nothing but promote segregation and division

I noticed Microsoft going this way years ago. Sony as well. These companies need to stop pushing bs and just make games for everyone.

Imagine the outrage if there was "Games for white people"... How is this any different?

 

[svbarnard]

MS is American. Is their thing. Even when they do what their call "affirmative action" still feels racist and cringy as fuck to the rest of the world.

"woke ideologies" there fixed it for ya.

 

[SirTerry-T]

Who left the idiot flap open on the front door?

 

[feynoob]

Would you be offended if it said "Curated by White and Caucasian communities" instead?????

Are Americans this soft?

What is the problem of promoting Hispanic games to Hispanic audience?

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

What about Childhood Obesity Awareness Month? Why don’t we have a “made by fat kids” section?????

 

[feynoob]

"woke ideologies" there fixed it for ya.

Dude, step out of your keyboard.
Not everything has to be a racist shit, like you make it out to be.

 

[adamsapple]

 

[svbarnard]

Imagine the outrage if Microsoft had said "Curated by White and Caucasian communities" instead? People would be screaming WHITE SUPREMACY and THAT'S RACIST!!!!!

 

[Meicyn]

lmao op shit his diaper again

 

[nightmare-slain]

hold on, let me get offended.

 

[svbarnard]

Dude, step out of your keyboard.
Not everything has to be a racist shit, like you make it out to be.

Ok I get it you don't think it's racist but can I ask you this, would it be racist if Microsoft had instead said "Curated by White and Caucasian communities"? People would be throwing a fit and screaming THAT'S WHITE SUPREMACY!!!!!

 

[Majukun]

it's not about race, it's about communities and culture

but the us definitions around these kind of things are at best murky for anyone outside said country

white is not a race and caucasian is an ethnicity

actually, a good chunk of american "whites" come from uk and ireland descent, and those are NOT caucasian

 

[Skifi28]

Discriminating against race seems to be the best way to avoid being accused of racism these days. I don't get it either.
