I don't understand it. I'd kill for a gig where I played games all day and gave my opinions on them. How do these people who actively dislike games keep getting the jobs?
The games industry has now been thoroughly infested by the leftists, they always go after HR departments first. Then when they've gained control, they make sure only their friends and fellow ideological believers get into the lower ranks.
Eventually what happens is the older bunch leaves and then they concoct some bullshit accusation of impropriety against their bosses and they have them by the balls. When the bosses finally get fed up and retire that's when the leftists strike and then they have the whole company.
Rinse and repeat and that's how they take over entire industries. We live in an oligarchy now and gainful employment depending on the industry relies on you virtue signalling on a twitter account at the very least to get anything worthwhile unless you're willing to go toe to toe with them in the market.
Even ignoring the political angle, the problem is they just aren't good at video games. Which means they get constantly frustrated playing and just end up not having any fun. A problem I think most of us can relate to somewhat from some bullshit game in our past that didn't jive with us or was made to be unfair.
But skill in the game is completely irrelevant to the networking, which is how 99% of them get their job. That's how most people get jobs honestly, but most jobs you can also learn on the job itself. Games can't really be taught, you just have to be or git gud. So when they realize they talked themselves into a trap, they instead blame the industry or the audience for their trouble.

Regulatory capture works the same way.

Because they want the political opinion columns but nepotism can only get you so far, specially when you lack any kind of real insight
