fantastic thread. learn your computer history. learn your women's history - and the history of intentional erasure.
In 1945, six women pulled off a computing miracle. They programmed the world’s first computer—with no manuals, no training. Then, a SINGLE assumption erased them from tech history for decades. The story of how ONE photo nearly deleted computing’s female founders: 🧵

cultivating equitable access to art and media for the underserved and underpriviliged WHILE selling more games and building lifelong communities and fans?. what nutbag would be against this?. only hypercapitalist scumbags, actually. kids and poor people deserve art too. thanks!.

i estimate bethesda has sold at least 100+ extra copies of their games due to a friend giving me a burned copy of morrowind when we were teens. i've purchased SO many bethesda games (+ so many extra copies of each). i've converted so many friends & fam. piracy rules ✌️.
marketing fundamentals:. given that your whole TAM won't buy your game & probably never hear about it which is more valuable? . - someone who has not played your game.- someone who has played it and enjoyed it but didn't pay for it. same $ either way but latter has +1 advocates.

the reason all those gamergate dweebs are obsessed with "DEI" & "wokeness" is they instinctively understand the dogwhistle. in their minds, if DEI(equality) is abolished, they, mostly bottom-status str8 white men, are by default returned to the top of the status hierarchy. magic!.

they're intentionally communicating that if you're a cis woman, trans, black, asian, non-white, you did not get your position by merit. because in the natural order of things, a white man would have been better at that job by default. they're parading white male supremacy. loudly.

when you hear them say "DEI", automatically replace their words in your brain with what the word represents to them: "cis women, trans, black, asian, non-whites". when they say "we're getting rid of DEI", they're really saying "we're getting rid of cis women, trans, non-whites".

the top politicians and occupiers of positions of power in the US are currently actively using the white male supremacist dogwhistle of "DEI" to go after everyone who would stand in their way. they are attempting to returning non-white non-males to the bottom of the status chain.

make no mistake, "DEI" is code for white male supremacy. when you hear these fascists talking about "getting rid of DEI", what they mean is "we're re-asserting the status of white men as default lords over all who do not belong to our group". do not comply.
