You don't need ESG to explain any of this. Unless you're a massive company ESG money isn't coming your way anyway. The ESG mandates are relevant for where massive index/retirement/government funds invest, and those funds aren't investing in anything beyond the 1000 largest companies anyway.
You have to ask yourself why this is happening everywhere, indies and up.
And it's because of three things:
-
ideological capture. Your workers are converts, and they will make a huge deal out of things until you relent. Or they will just do what you ask them to do, but bend it to woke. You tell a team to make a shooter, and they make the protagonist a black woman, what are you going to do, tell them to change that? You have any idea how much shit that would get you? And it's enough that a few of them are believers, and the rest will go along, for a similar reason.
-
people think the worst thing that can happen is bad reviews. No, the worst thing is being ignored. You feed the cathedral what you know the cathedral wants, otherwise it will ignore you and that means you can't sell. Or that's the fear, more often than not it's unwarranted, but people give in for goodboy points and to not disincentivize mentions.
-
requirements for major awards. Your workers want awards. Awards mean lots of sales. To get the awards, you need to qualify and the qualifications require representation.
The rest is just cost saving and good old corner cutting.
It's important to always remember that leftists are materialists.
"But if we halt immigration, then GDP goes down, and then we have less money, and then we have less material things and comforts!"
Ok, even ignoring for a minute that that's not how it works, then ok. Yes. So what?
You can only win arguments against marxists by steering the conversation away from materialistic goals.
Are we in danger of starvation? No? Then material goods are immaterial.
The goal isn't creating a world with more consoomtion or even material comfort, the goal is safety, community, and high trust.
Tell them that if they can point to a diverse society that is as safe, with the same sense of community, belonging, solidarity, compassion, and trust as places like Japan or Norway - then sure, ok, let's do that then. But until they can, kindly shut the fuck up.
The only place white men are overrepresented is inside the bonus holes of woke wahmyn.
If it truly was just a dialect, then the people speaking it would be able to write English properly.
The problem with accelerationism is that end-stage ideological societies are totalitarian, and totalitarian states can last for a thousand years.
It's remarkable. You only need to leave the house for 5 minutes to realize that there are massive differences in intelligence between humans. That this is somehow controversial is incredible. It's just evidence of how unfathomably strong the social programming is for the majority of people. There is no other emperor as naked as this one.
And it isn't even related to stormfaggotry. It's just truth. A state of nature. Like, you can take this fact and go full commie and demand more handouts to blacks bc they can't compete on equal terms. It's not like we're saying blacks are low IQ therefore fire up the chambers. If anything, it's that blacks will underperform for as long as you fail to take this into account and plan for it, e.g. with special needs classes that teach impulse control and delaying gratification rather than gender studies and crt. The irony is that the blindfold position on intelligence does more to harm low IQ populations than pretty much any other social conviction.
Read this you dumb fuck, and keep your fucking mouth shut about things you clearly have not researched.
Heritability of IQ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heritability_of_IQ
"Early twin studies of adult individuals have found a heritability of IQ between 57% and 73%,[6] with some recent studies showing heritability for IQ as high as 80%"
Or read some studies, you'll find plenty, like this one:
Genetics and intelligence differences: five special findings https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4270739/
"Intelligence is one of the most heritable behavioural traits. [...] The heritability of intelligence [is] 80% in adulthood.
Heritability of height is also about 80% -> https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/understanding/traits/height/#:~:text=Scientists%20estimate%20that%20about%2080,height%20are%20only%20partially%20understood.
This is not a particularly American problem.
The average IQ of blacks is much lower in Africa, mostly in the 60s, but in some countries in the 40s. In places where there is ample nutrition and education it's in the low 80s, whether that's Alabama, Stockholm, or Tokyo.
So no, there's nothing special about the slaves. Evolution takes much longer than a few generations, and e.g. recessive genes and epigenetics make sure that you can't just selects for traits in a few generations by artificial means.
No.
Intelligence has the same heritability as height.
The IQ gap is present in every country on the planet and has always been. There are so many studies on this, in part bc so many people have desperately needed to prove this untrue. Yet the best they have so far is nitpicking methodologies to disprove the entire field on technicalities, when 1) none of their own theories or fields could withstand even 1/100000th of the scrutiny, and 2) other fields like psychology have proven a very high correlation between IQ scores and pretty much every desirable thing and positive trait, from delaying gratification and mental stability, to crime and violence, to academic achievement and financial success.
You need to explain why the richest and best educated blacks are lower IQ than the poor whites and asians. You need to explain why it's specifically the low 80s regardless of culture, country, continent, society, money or education. Or lower in places with less than ideal support systems. Nevermind fucking employment.
In some African countries the average IQ is in the fucking 40s. Employment.... lol
Oh it's not enough is it? But these pakis who live 35 people in a small room and eat only rice and beans are willing to do it for that, so the wages must be indeed fair.
The solution is to put all kids below a 85 IQ in special needs classes and give them the support, supervision, and discipline that they need. These kids need more time learning basic skills like delaying gratification, temper control, emotional control, anger management, impulse control.
There's no point teaching these kids math. Spend the time teaching them to calm down and not be a threat to society.
We already do this for white and asian kids - about 15% of the population. But we don't for blacks, because of the optics, since that's half of the entire race.
Bingo. She even calls her baby a fetus in the video.
Black women's involvement in any media conveys that compromises have been made with the empire ideology.
Either through ideological capture - in which case we know the quality will have suffered immensely through a mix of diversity hires and regressive tropes, and that the product will be nothing but propaganda.
Or through opportunism - in which case we know that the product is going to be soul-less, bland, and uninteresting in every way.
Conclusion: you should be glad they're featured, it lets you know immediately what to avoid.

Reddit is far gone. It's an extremist hellhole. You can't "be water" there, they'll sniff you out in an instant and ban you for no reason, just for not liking who you are.
Twitter has rules and centralized moderation by people who are at least internally accountable and get a paycheck, so they couldn't just get rid of people just for questioning the narrative. They had to at least pretend to have a law. But on reddit the mods are all powerful. I've been banned for the most milquetoast of reasons; for jokes, for observations, for asking questions.
It really ramped up during the riots. Anywhere they sensed that someone might be even the slightest bit anti-narrative they banned. Perm bans for dissidents, temp bans to scare the normies into compliance, and shadow removal of posts to make normies think that everyone believes the same things.
The result is that only NPCs are left, riling each other up to new heights of banality. The groupthink is actually remarkable. The syntax they use very predictable. And every thread they return to their hate objects de jour. Because hate is the strongest control mechanism, and ideological groups turn to hate to keep each other in line.
Reddit has become the greatest propaganda tool ever known, and it's all because of the mod system where the always online fanatics of SRS could, over years, spread and take control over a forum they deeply hated, and then use that hatred to shred it apart and instill fear and totalitarian control.
Reddit, which used to be centrist, is what happens when you drive away all opposition, all dissent, all intellectual challenge, and you instill people with a sense of fear for disagreement. Any large sub is now just a festering rotting place of hate, vitriol, sarcasm, sadism, and depression.
Topic -> hate object(s) to blame for Topic OR hate object(s) to blame for vaguely related Topic -> expressions of hate for the hate objects -> despair and depression because the hate objects exist -> nothing good can ever happen as long as hate objects exist -> hate objects are to blame for all the evils -> capitalism is bad and hate objects only exist because of capitalism.
Repeat ad nauseum.
The irony is that they look at this place like that. But the reality is that this place is quite relaxing. There's no feeling of groupthink, but rather of shared interests. Low censorship counteracts ideological thinking. Keeping the extremists around moderates everyone else. It's amazing that the people who frequent places where hatred is the most dominant emotion, think of places like kia as hateful, while really the most frequent emotions here are probably melancholy and nostalgia.
Everyone is here for different reasons. It's a weird mishmash of outcasts. We all disagree, we have dissidents, lunatics, weirdos, zealots, you argue with one guy one day and upvote him the next because even people you disagree with have good insights.
And that's what reddit is missing; the insights. Because that's what you trade away when you become a hivemind. Reddit is now just infinitely boring and predictable, hateful and sadistic, and sometimes useful if you're researching the best temp to cook your steak or which bike to buy.
Here's how you can tell.
Is it vitriolic, hateful, sadistic, and snarky? Then it's not a joke.
Is it cute, funny, kind, and wholesome? Then it's a joke.
If this was real it would read something like
"It's disgusting how men exploit women and put them in positions of oppression by using their monetary power to force them into being raped, and then discard them as objects by sending them away in an Uber. We should oppress, violate, and throw out men and let's see how they like it"
50%? lol
You're failing to take into account past oppressions. The correct number is closer to 15%.
Not that it matters much. The left is beholden to a strict popularity hierarchy, it's enough if one black woman suggests something; only acceptable reply is a compliment. It's why every diverse group is such a disaster, not because they have different skin colors, but because the left has made it an offence to question those above you on the victimization totem pole.
Everything they touch turns to shit, because that's just what happens when you're not allowed to question or challenge anything.
This is a real problem for them. They see themselves as perfect artists and geniuses who are awoken to THE TRUTH, but then they have to live with the dissonance that somehow everything they produce is trash, and their ideological blindness doesn't allow them ever to realize why.
In fact, to correct for them consistently making wrong predictions and outputting shit, would be to undermine their very foundation, and thus impossible.
Every time they fail they are bound to double down. This is how they end up with a totalitarian hellhole every single time. After reparations and progressive stacks and outright discrimination, and the diverse are still underperforming, what do you do? Question your blank slate theory? Lol, never. There's only one thing to do, and that's to keep digging.
Hollywood can make rules about how many diversities you have to hire, and they can ban AI, and force it through unions and a complete control over all streaming platforms.
But I'd like to see the gaming industry try to do the same. Some random small studio from random small country will just fuck them with better AI led graphics and writing, and just launch the next massive franchise.
This is like feeling bad for a fruit juice company for buying apples.
Up means down. Color blind casting means casting based solely on color.
How do you find all this stuff?
I reached this same conclusion. Self described "empaths" aren't more empathetic, they're more sympathetic.
Empathy as emotional simulation - feeling the emotions of another human.
Sympathy as pity - feeling your own emotions in relation to another subject.
One clear sign is that you can't have empathy with groups, you can only have sympathy for them, and 99% of the time when someone is telling about how empathetic they are it's about some group.
Empathy isn't selectively felt, it's a blanket. It can be selectively repressed though, through ideology. A mark of ideologues is selective empathy, which ironically is another trait that all "empaths" seem to share, the strange absence of empathy for the out group.
The Empathetic Ones don't mirror another's internal state. In fact, ask them to empathize with something positive, like a man who just won a tennis match, and they're completely unable. Their read of others is almost always wrong.
Instead they project unto others the misery they're addicted to feeling, and then indulge in ascetic suffering fantasies. They're negative emotion addicts. Overactive sympathy is a narcissistic trait.
80 is also post-puberty.
This one is already Spider-Man Whatever.
Low IQ populations will always be over-represented as consumers of shit entertainment media. And normies will never care, all movies can be all blacks al the time and they still wont notice. Noticing has been bred and brainwashed out of them.
Go woke go broke doesn't affect all industries the same. Book publishing went off the cliff woke and they're doing comparatively fine, it depends who your natural customers are.
