Long twitter thread about developers anonimously sharing their SocJus workplace horror stories.

copypasting Crossposting what I posted on the subreddit.

So I can't post the twitter because the person is barelly under the twitter nobodies rule. I'll be quoting the tweets and posting the images directly.

Game developers, are literally being pushed out of this industry, by left wing activists!

I'm having developers come to me, left & right, telling me that they don't want to do this social justice crap! They only want to make games, like normal people!

A lot of people don't understand, that many people in the gaming industry, are normal people, that are being silenced into accepting the left-wing insanity, lest they be fired.

This is not an isolated incident. Many western game studios, are like this now.

Keep in mind, that this is the 3rd story i had to deal with TODAY!

I couldn't even publish the other two, because these developers are too afraid, of retribution. But let's keep saying, that there's no left wing bias, in the gaming industry!

Here's ANOTHER story, about a developer that was basically hounded for not wanting to engage in idpol, in their workplace!

Also, some dipshit customer got offended at a spiral & they were forced to take it out of the game!

But there's no left-wing bias, at the game industry?

This story is not as bad, as the other ones, but it still goes to show you that there are normal people in the industry, that does see how political activism doesn't lead to better sales!

People just want to make fun video games!

Another story, about why these companies, don't necessarily fire/cull these left-wing activists, out of the industry!

A lot of these companies LEGALLY can't filter them out. In fact, they're really posting this BLM stuff, because of fear from activists from within!

Image 1, Image 2, Image 3, Image 4

A common thread i keep encountering in these stories, is how most people are being pushed to be independent, because of how toxic the far-left culture is, in the game development scene.

You're not even allowed to stay neutral. These stories, are just getting sad.

This right here, really boils my piss. To threaten somebody's immigration status, because you hold the "wrong views", is absolutely unacceptable!

Image 1, Image 2, Image 3, Image 4

It seems that a lot of people, who are coming to America specifically to work on video games, are being roped up in this left-wing cult.

So much for caring about the feelings of minorities & immigrants, huh?

It's almost like white liberals, are the most racist people out there?

Image 1, Image 2

Another story.

Folks literally have a choice between being homeless, or joining a left-wing cult. That's how bad, this infestation has gotten!

It's a damn shame, that people can't even go to work, without being hounded about their political leanings.

Image 1, Image 2, Image 3

This might be the biggest story of them all.

This HUGE rumor, but apparently the reason why all of these gaming companies are posting BlackLivesMatter stuff, is because they've been donating money to BLM, which is a donation front to "ACT BLUE", a left wing super PAC!

This was the last one by now.

I read some of these, and then I read an article my friend sent me:

https://pulpitandpen.org/2020/06/09/wokeness-is-a-new-religion-and-christians-are-converting-en-masse/

And now I look back at these and it feels somehow even more sinister than it already did. Like one of those End Times films. There's a new religion in town and it's making sure you convert or die.

Christians who are converting to that....

Aren't really christians, they are churchians. They go through the motions, but do NOT serve Christ. They serve the lord of this world, and that is NOT Jesus.

Yeeep. I kinda saw it developing a few years back. I think only in the last 2 or 3 it's really started to take shape. The Socal2 people, I'd like to say Jonathan Haidt too are the ones that sorta aligned the pieces to show how it's a religion.

I will say that as a Christian it's getting really worrying seeing socjus make inroads. My alma mater, a Baptist College added a social justice major the year after I left, for ex, and one of the bigger (Baptist) churches in my town has started using the words "diversity," and "inclusion" in its stuff. On the face of it yeah, great, Christians are called to show the love for others that Christ showed us, but those weasel words of the left are how they start the process of subversion.

What's funny is if these churches were even aware of half the stuff we talk about I'm sure they wouldn't have even embraced such things in the first place. I guess this is just in the context of Baptist ones. The Episcopalians, Methodists, and Presbyterians are all pozzed. Catholics too, parish depending.

I'm in the gaming industry and have been for over 10 years now. Worked with people at Riot, Blizzard, Naughty Dog, Bioware, etc. I won't ever work at a company like this anymore. Work as an independent developer since 2017. The culture was like walking on a tightrope in 2016, I bet now it's around your neck.

I genuinely don’t know how this is all going to be resolved. At least with cults, you have the rest of society to help deprogram them and adjust back to reality, but this? Society is siding with the cult and its insanity, so how the fuck do you deprogram that?

And as for the ACT BLUE thing, I would say that it’ll end when Soros dies, but it’ll just continue under someone else’s guidance, some other shadowy puppet master, and the next generation will have to spend ages battling them too in what seems like a losing war.

Not sure why people always mention Soros?

But on topic of left wing insanity, the pendulum swings both ways. These protest seem more likely to get people to flock conservative.

Soros is funding most of the troublemakers.
