Am I weird for not caring about this person?

Like maybe if she were the lead on bigger projects/companies than some niche indie dating sim I'd be able to muster concern. But she's not, and last I heard of the lore is that her current job is basically a glorified intern for other people who do the actual writing.

She's essentially just some random jackass in a world of random jackasses. >_>

lol, yeah.

People are making out like she's the head of Sony or something.

Eh... Kind of? Lalonders clearly dislikes white people because of the way they've treated her. That kind of hate definitely swings into "racist" territory, but I can kind of understand why some people get like that.

My late grandfather hated white people because he grew up in the South during segregation. And as a black man, he got blamed and attacked by white men, for something he didn't do. So he never learned to trust white people after that, although his anger mellowed as he got older.

I didn't think it was right for him to hate all white people, because of the actions of a few, but I didn't go through what he did, so I wasn't about to argue with him on it.

I think something like that could have been solved with therapy though. Maybe that's what this lady needs? Work out her issues with a professional instead of carrying that hatred with her for her entire life.
Yeah, hatred only begets more hatred. It's most likely that trauma derived from racial discrimination is at the root of her behavior towards white people. Of course, that's no excuse to pile all that resentment on white individuals who've done nothing wrong.

From what I can tell, She deserves to be called out and more because of her bigotry. The double standards from people who know better make me sad. It helps nothing.

The only problem is that right wingers, who are the loudest voices being heard over this, have no right to call her or others out on racism.

I am specifically asking the person who said he wants to be treated the same way he treats others.

He dodged the question though, with some bullshit like "oh that would never happen to me because I would never do that" but I'm pretty sure he realizes he's not treating this woman the same way he wants to be treated so there's no point in pressing the issue.

Yes but tbh I don't really care this is still just chuds trying to make gamergate 2 into a thing

for some nuance, I'll agree that racism against white people is a thing that exists and it's bad but trying to equivalate racism against white people (which in 99% of cases doesn't extend beyond random twitter wokescolds making annoying posts) to systemic racism against non-white people that's existed for centuries is an extremely blatant and obtuse form of poor faith.

I don't believe calling out white privilege and racism is itself racist, no. Though being against interracial relationships is pretty bad if true.

For what it's worth, she doesn't actually work for SBI, at least not anymore.

True, but it seems like the far right has largely turned apolitical gamers against Sweet Baby Inc. Truth be told, this might have been avoided if the people involved had simply ignored them instead of lashing out.

Mmm, I don't know about "apolitical" in this case. Don't get me wrong far-right radicalization is definitely a thing but I feel like you already have to be at least somewhat "anti-woke" already to take those particular talking points seriously.

You're probably right that it wouldn't have blown up as much as it did if it wasn't for some of the people involved making such a fuss about it, but as someone who does a lot of lurking, I can tell you that the anti-SBI stuff has been simmering in certain corners of the internet for a while, hence why that Steam curator was created in the first place; the reaction to it, at most, just caused the spark that made everything boil over.

I hope it's true that she did get fired. Anyone who holds the disgusting views that she does has no place in this industry. Her entire personality that she puts out online is based around hating a specific group of people. She honestly should seek counseling for her issues.

Its taken it to the "mainstream" for lack of a better word. Before it was just random grifters having a circlejerk in their circles

The problem is that grifters are given free ammo to launder their bullcrap with. Instead of having to sell their bigotry with slightly more tame bigotry, they can hook a target in with somewhat accurate stuff like the person in this thread

I dont give a shit about the narrative because gamergate shit is ridiculous. Shes clearly racist but shes in no position to destroy gaming and white people like some of these right wing idiots want so badly to believe.

To everyone saying it doesnt matter or who cares though, hows this that much different than the dumbass racists tweeting about x men in the other topic?

Pretending this person isn't racist is helping the grifters, it's letting them draw out a portion where they have actual evidence. Acknowledge this one person is racist and make them move on to explaining why this one person being racist is a big deal, which it isn't and they won't be able to.

I genuinely don't see those tweets as racist though because of the context. Read what she's actually saying. She's talking about privileged white people. Racist white people. White people with money. The latter two groups explicitly in a few cases. What's racist about that? It's just descriptive. Unless "white people" is somehow a slur now...
