There was also that memo from Insomniac Games, that was leaked by the people who hacked the company. It was also about prioritising the hiring of minorities. And I've been wondering about what's so different about the kind of stories I'd tell and the stories these misfits bring to the table. My kind of stories (am not writer, nor dev) would be something like investigating a locked-room murder mystery, where the victim was a time traveller, or a story where you have to evade a trio of high-paid assassins - and it's the Marx Brothers. I get the feeling these diversity-hires would never write a story like one of those, that the unique experiences they bring into their stories are those of anti-White, anti-male, anti-father, anti-Christian, anti-capitalism, anti-west and just plain anti-SUCCESS worldviews. And, obviously, that they all get to keep their jobs so long as they keep submitting stories like those. If your main focus is the hiring of misfits, don't be surprised when your product is defined by the presence of misfit perspectives and don't pretend that the injecting of misfit ideologies wasn't your sole purpose all along.

As an aside, I saw a Reddit thread some months ago, it was about the total lack of jewish characters in Star Trek. And one of the comments was kvetching about something called "christianocentric stories." This confused me. The stories in Star Trek have always been about forgiveness, tolerance, egalitarianism and all other liberal fetishes. Did these obvious Star Trek fans of jewish descent not feel represented by these values, and if so: why? Would a Federation defined by tribalism, closed borders and old grudges be more to their liking?

No Jews in Star Trek.

Nemoy wrote in his 1975 Biography that the hand sign was inspired by this other hand sign that a Rabbi does to bless people

In his 1975 autobiography I Am Not Spock, Nimoy, who was Jewish, wrote that he based it on the Priestly Blessing performed by Jewish Kohanim with both hands, thumb to thumb in this same position, representing the Hebrew letter Shin (ש in Square Script, or Paleo Hebrew 𐤔‎), which has three upward strokes similar to the position of the thumb and fingers in the gesture. The letter Shin here stands for El Shaddai, meaning "Almighty (God)", as well as for Shekhinah and Shalom. Nimoy wrote that when he was a child, his grandfather took him to an Orthodox synagogue, where he saw the blessing performed and was impressed by it.

Average Redditor moment.

If I'm hired based on my networking skills I expect to add value to anything related to networking but if you are hired because you are not white then what do they expect to add value on?

Only logical thing is they are going to just make everything about race.

DIE policies will always produce poor quality products.

Forgiveness tolerance and egalitarianism aren't Jewish values.

None if them are, but forgiveness especially is one they reject culturally, as well as the concept of redemption
