The amount of businesses cucking out over this is unbelievable. It goes to show how much they fear the Twitter Red Guards. or to what extent the Red Guards are already inside the gates

I feel like it has to be internal. They can't possibly believe that a bunch of left wing nut jobs are walking around with the interest to get into a hobby as niche and nerdy as war-gaming, and you'd have to be fucking dumb to think said lefties had anywhere near the disposable income GW depends on.

I don't know, I've worked for some high level people that under normal circumstances seem sharp. But they can make some really dumb decisions, and no one is willing to stick their neck out to set them straight (bad for your career prospects, and indeed your livelihood during this period). So people become silent or yes-men, and the companies go off a cliff because that's what the industry peers are doing.

Yup, they're high level people making judgments based on things they can only perceive at a surface depth. They're too enmeshed with other issues to give a deeper inspection and are of course going to think that the "diverse/anti-racism" angle is the right and safe bet.

Given that BLM and the Antifa-Left are bullies, for some companies it is a safer bet.

Not all of us. But probably those that are left grinding code for some shitty company.

I'm just a hired gun now, and charge $150-250/hr to fix what the others fuck up. I'd rather work a few days a month, than 20+ days a month.

Yup, we are out here. Forced into "back alley" chats. Any conservative speak publicly is career suicide for yourself and the colleagues you hang out with.

I know a few, and you're my hero. Awesome job.

Yeah, a company essentially telling me I wont be missed is a huge eff you to a customer.

Also, they gutted my Black Templars a good while back. I have played them for years and years...I cannot forgive that Heresy.
