Who at Xbox is responsible for this?

Fired up my Xbox and was appalled to see this nonsense taking up space on my dashboard. I guess we can add this to the pile of things that make modern Xbox cringe and out of touch.

Does PlayStation do this too? I know Nintendo and Steam don't. Feels like every time I fire up my Xbox they're promoting some cringe social justice message, like a few weeks ago when it was all about Pacific Islanders. Seriously, try googling Pacific Islander + Xbox, PlayStation or Nintendo and see how different the results are. 😂

Boy do I miss the 360 era. Remember when Xbox hired people that understood and cared about gaming? Those were the days.
 
Xbox has had shit like that for years on the dashboard...

I hate it too, but is this really worth getting this bent out of shape? just ignore it and play your games.

I haven't turned my ps5 on for a week or so, but there was nothing like this last time I was on.

Sony, at least from my recollection, don't really do stuff like this.
 
Treat others well

Gafer: how dare you?!


Literally a universal message that you can ignore if "treat others well" triggers you. Y'all just enjoy being annoyed. To the point messsges that baby shows like dragon tales would teach bother you.

"treat others as they want to be treated"

how can you seriously be pissed off at that? be kind to others. don't judge them. have empathy and respect. but hey that's just what i think. unless they are being an asshole then let people be themselves. don't get worked up over it.
 
so this is what I see ... when i turn it on it instantly shows this screen and the three blocks on the bottom load in after. If thats what you are complaining about ... oh boy..

You're right. I read through the step-by-step instructions about the Platinum Rule and feel like I have a better understanding on how to treat people on Xbox. All these years I was sending messages to people about fucking their mom and it has just dawned on me that this was inappropriate behavior.

Thank you Xbox. Thank you.

You really don't get why this is annoying? Shouldn't you be the one to decide when to be subjected to preachy advertisement / corporate representation?

It's like watching a blu ray you got with a bible or koran verse popping up in the main menu of the bd. Come on now.
 
Xbox and online communities are all so fucking toxic and ruled by man childs that you need to be talked to like retarded kids.

This is just a good message, and they wasted one of their paid ad spaces to put that sentiment out there. There's nothing wrong with this, people that have a problem with this are fucked up, there's no agenda here they're saying treat humans with respect.
 
I already was a bit annoyed at the PSN notification that the new COD is out. Like i give a FUCK

So i can imagine how this can be annoying

It's kind of sad to see when the aggressive extreme faux "progressive" leftists activism ie Reeeee crowd makes something as innocuous and fundamentally positive as the example in the OT smells dirty. Jfc what a world we live in where true sincerity is taken for propaganda.

Then again do we REALLY know it's true intentions?

No. It's a universal message. In a space where people do treat each other like shit. It's not pushing a political agenda to say treat others well. It's a human message. It's as if you are trained to think positive message are a woke agenda lol. Like you won't go from "treat others well " to " free health care for all" via Xbox messaging. Don't worry.
 
Eh, no thanks. Treat people with respect would be a better slogan. I won't treat someone who identifies as e.g. cat or whatever as a cat.

I'm sure assholes will start treating people right after reading this, lol. These type of corporate messages are just virtue signaling and nothing else.

This is the problem now, can't take anything at face value anymore, especially not from corporations like this.
