This is very true. At my game dev job almost all of people on my team are autistic, claim to have ADHD (mostly self diagnosed) or are some flavour of lgbt. More than half are women.
They all place their ideology first. Constantly try to worm trans or drag stuff into every project, villans are always white males.
Narrative, QA and HR teams are the most deranged.
I remember (can’t say when exactly) when social media went crazy because an all white male design team was behind a game. I really hate what gaming has turned into. I missed the hobby from years back
When I was involved in hiring a few years ago I had to put together all the top applicstions, we had about 80 after removing the junk.
90% white males applied.
HR came in and went down my list saying "white male, white male, white male, white male ugh"
Told me I couldn't have so many white males on the list.
After an interview with one of the white males said the HR boss something like "he's great, too bad he's a white dude"
They ended up hiring two people, a White girl and an Asian guy but they had a huge debate about if his being Asian outweighed the sin of him being male.
When I said "We should just hire the best" I was told "If we only hired the best then the whole company would be white dudes" which was amazing to hear an HR dept admit.
Anyway the company is now on the brink of collapse.
Ion is the special kind of retard that literally every time he talks you can find something hilariously awful he said during it.
There is a reason why you don't hire "pro-raiders" to run your company, because you get actual autists like him who aren't any better than a random idiot.
Are the only people gaming companies hire now are rabid feminists and lgbt?
Yes.
Autists. Every single one of them.
Autists who cannot understand the social and societal implications, I might add.
On a small scale? Coercion. On this scale?
That's just the march through the institutions, baby!

Game companies openly talk about throwing out white male resumes.
