I was wrong. Some people in the video game industry literally want you dead if you voted differently than them. Activision and Gearbox employees go off on Facebook about what they want to happen to MAGA, and then we talk about some other insanity in the industry—including one dev who wants to send back an award from The Real Game Awards. Video game industry professionals from major companies like Blizzard and Gearbox publicly expressed extreme political views, wishing harm on MAGA supporters despite potential job consequences. Activision’s CEO emphasized the importance of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives, potentially conflicting with their Department of Defense partnership due to government restrictions on DEI funding. The "Real Game Awards" faced controversy when a trans developer mistakenly attempted to return their award, believing it to be an anti-woke statement. Activision’s DEI efforts aim to enhance employee experiences and global player engagement, but may attract left-wing activists while alienating consumers with differing views. A convention organizer in Western Central PA faced backlash for labeling Trump supporters as "simple Nazis," highlighting the politically charged environment in the video game convention scene. The video game industry is experiencing political polarization, with some professionals openly criticizing certain groups while simultaneously seeking financial support from them. 🐠 Become a MEMBER of The Reef at http://ClownfishMinus.com Official Merch Store: http://ClownfishMinus.com CFTV Audio Podcast (iTunes): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/clownfish-tv-audio-edition/id1726838629 CFTV Audio Podcast (Spotify): https://open.spotify.com/show/6qJc5C6OkQkaZnGCeuVOD1 Official Website: http://ClownfishTV.com Official Clownfish TV subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/ClownfishTVOfficial/ Geeky Sparkles’ Blog: https://www.piratesandprincesses.net/ About Us: Clownfish TV is an independent, opinionated news and commentary channel that covers Entertainment and Tech from a consumer’s point of view.
