Stalladir posted a message on Blizzard Speaks Out - Actions To Support Our Black Community, Colleagues, And PartnersPosted in: NewsCouldn't have said it better myself. This just proves that Blizzard are complete hypocrites. Before HK they chose to show their support to LGBTQ+ community during one of their events. Then we had all HK and Blitz ruckus and they chose to silence people. Now we have this BLM situation and they decice to support it... Because guess what? It pays back! LGBTQ+ and BLM member play Blizzard games, sure does HK people too, but Chinas goverment just pays more.

SanityBox posted a message on Blizzard Speaks Out - Actions To Support Our Black Community, Colleagues, And PartnersPosted in: NewsIn my opinion, supporting "BLACK LIVES MATTER" and supporting anti-racism and black people are different things. It's also not an anti-racist movement, when it is being racist itself to all other races besides black, and being offensive to people holding other beliefs, especially right-winged people.
Violently forcing affirmative action will not bring the black community closer to equality; The community will throw the black community bones, such as soft words, some job positions and few budgets, but will fear them more. They won't be taking care of the real issues that put the black community in USA a step behind, like handling crime and giving them proper education like they should have. I support anti-racism and all equality for all races, black, yellow and white, but cannot support BLM.
And about Blizzard. this feels like an ass-cover; You mostly respect your money sources, like China (Blitzchung will confirm), and not black people. How many black streamers do you have compared to White and Chinese ones? How many Black officials you have in your company compared to White ones? How many teams from Africa participate in your tournaments?... (It's okay, BLM doesn't care to much about Africa either). [This is only my opinion based on partial information and I can change it, comments are welcome].

Well, they sure did a good job leveling Seattle...

ActionJunkie posted a message on Blizzard Speaks Out - Actions To Support Our Black Community, Colleagues, And PartnersPosted in: NewsRacism and prejudice aren't going away. That's a fact. You can argue coherence, Dewey, deflationary or whatever the hell you want to about truth/facts... it doesn't really matter when it comes to this issue. What is important is how we discuss and educate ourselves to be better (minimize racism/prejudice/etc).
Pushing definitely isn't the answer. Empathy, understanding, and learning is... all of which are not happening when one side "knows better than the other."

vNihilism posted a message on Blizzard Speaks Out - Actions To Support Our Black Community, Colleagues, And PartnersPosted in: NewsI think everyone is a little racist and biologically speaking it's completely natural due to the tribal nature of our evolution.
But I guess you're probably talking about the systemic racism bullshit which is simply an excuse to belittle white people. Weird how people that bring up "systemic racism" never want to apply the theory to non-white majority countries.
And yeah the intent and naming of BLM are both malevolent.

As opposed to America where they benefit from affirmative action...

Read the source, they say it's because of the increased number of legendaries.

Whoever thought it would be funny to bring Flamewaker back into standard needs a swift kick in the nuts! Can't have this level of stupid in our gene pool.
