I hope she leaves the gaming industry completely. Or nobody hires her in that field. These activists don't care about gaming, they only want to grift and make things worse for gamers because of some revenge plot or something.

Gatekeep hard. Make them feel unwelcome. Kick them out.

Weird outcasted people's best bet for spreading their narrative is through media. Whether it's a streamer, writer, artist, game site editor, it doesnt matter which part of the chain they are in. Those kinds of roles involve a lot of plot and storytelling. And their careers and personal pats on the back needed heavily depend on social media so everyone talks to them and remembers who they are for their next contract gig. So their views keep going on Twitter too.

You cant do that working at a bank, hospital or manufacturer churning out 500 varieties of light bulbs.

No, he's right. Two different sides of the same coin. They're both annoying culture war, Twitter-poisoned shitheads that get way more exposure than either of them actually deserve, which should be zero.

Yes they are. One is a far right nutcase who has scammed people and is a racist pos and the other one is a far left nutjob who also has done some shady shit. they deserve eachother.

As far as I know Grummz is an ex-game dev that exposes shitty woke DEI practices happening at game companies on twitter. I don't see anything wrong with that, on the contrary. What exactly has he done to "scam people" and what makes him a "racist pos"?

He has been lying about stuff for clout time and time again. Recently he went as far as falsifying a document just to shit on Dragon Age.

Dude doesn't want to inform anyone. He is just an attention seeker.

That's not what I said.
I said I feel bad for you because you pay attention to idiots like this, and that it amuses me that it triggers you.

I told DonkeyPunchJR to stop making threads about these dumb twats because they flood the front page with garbage. That is a separate opinion that I shared with Cockatrice earlier in the thread.

I'm not triggered, I'm laughing my ass off.

I'm sorry reading is so hard for you.

Anything diverse in gaming is bad for him, its one thing to "expose" forced stuff, but he's just completely off the rails making stuff up, he even made up one fake document regarding Dragon Age. If theres any semblance of a black char in a game its instantly "DEI". As for the scam,



his new game is nowhere to be found more than a decade lol but hed rather spend nonstop on twitter.



this is all he does all day.

Maybe he has said some correct things once in a while but most of the time he's really just a scum and so are his followers.

They’re quotes from Animal Farm. However, given the message of the book is to watch out for totalitarian regimes - who will ruthlessly kill all dissent or anyone who disagrees with them - in the guise of left wing equality movements, I’d say she’s a complete fuckwit.

Did he really falsify it himself or did he jump the gun to report about something that was false but he thought was real?

Anyone with at least one working brain cell could tell that NDA was fake af

He was the first and only person to share it, as far as I know. Some people say it was originated on 4chan. Which would make him even more of an idiot for believing in it.

He definitely knew it was fake but just wanted some attention

One of the best life lessons my late father taught me was “don’t stick your dick into crazy”.

I don’t care if she has a nice ass or nice boobs, if her attitude is unhinged and she acts like a loon, my sword stays sheathed. I’m not willing to deal with the aftermath of even a one night stand with someone that crazy.

She strikes me as the kind of woman who would continually harass any guy who dated her, like that one crazy woman who sent 159,000 text messages to a dude she met on a dating site.

I don't follow Grummz. I agree that credibility is in tatters after the "NDA."

I also agree that only a Sith deals in absolutes.
