A Letter From CEO Bobby Kotick to All Employees

[Kilpi]

Imagine if they were this fast to ”Improve” the game, As they are with improving the work place.

So many bugs could be fixed instantly without having to wait months/years before it gets adressed

Maby the player base should sue as well :O

Holy shit, that's heartless. Internet seems to forget that we are talking about humans here.

[pfbe]

Earlier this year I sent an email requiring all hiring managers to ensure they have diverse candidate slates for all open positions. We will be adding compliance resources to ensure that our hiring managers are in fact adhering to this directive.

Oh, thank God. Through all this debacle, the one thing we could all see was that Blizzard's issues stem from a severe lack of diversity. Activision-Blizzard desperately needs a greater diversity of CEO's.

/eyeroll

[Daronokk]

So now Blizzard wants to become the most inclusive gaming company there is.... they can f*ck off with their products because I'm not buying such woke shit. This is the final nail in the 'Blizzard is dead' coffin.

Let them be China's bitch and go broke afterwards. What a bright future for once a great company.

[Kilpi]

Does this mean that future WoW will be like Netflix with transgenders and gay heroes everywhere?

Is that a problem? It hurts your manliness?

[Darth Vowrawn]

Tell me you've never been laid without telling me you've never been laid =D

Porn won't get me arrested for false rape accusations. Many men my age know likewise, that women are just too much of a risk.

Oh you mean ignore what people are saying, pretend there aren't any issues, pretend they are doing things when people call it out, and move on as usual for 15 years?

[Tooshie]

tbh white males are the most discriminated group in US and EU atm indeed.

which is kinda funny

which is also the reason asia is taking over world as they dont waste time on woke nonsense.

Oh god. Just because we're not allowed to act like fucking pigs like we have done since forever doesn't mean we're discriminated. Lifting others to equal standing doesn't mean we are getting anything taken away from us.

Oh, and toxic masculinity hurts us too. People forget that feminists atleast in my country also raise questions concerning things like mandatory military service which is only mandatory for men and such. Not being able to express your feelings in a healthy way because some emotionally crippled dad tells you to MAN UP is fucking harmful.

But people tend to see this only as "us vs. them", which is a shame.

[DingDongKing]

I wonder how a totally woke Blizzard would look.

Maybe they kill off the masculine traditional strong king, and replace him with his peace loving gentle son. And put a woman in charge of the most popular faction, and have her get away with literal murder.

Oh wait...

I’m assuming you called Tolkien woke because Aragorn ushered in an era of peace and handed the reins over to Eldarion who continued said peace, right? OMG SO WOKE, U GUYS LOVE PEACE. I LOVE WAR!

[Ivarr]

Well, if these are all the in-game changes that will be applied regarding this situation, I will even welcome them. No point to have references to proven sexual harasser and jerk that Afrasiabi is. But I am afraid that it is only the beginning of 'the purge'...

Right, but at least let us join in on the fun and reveal the list of these changes. Remorse starts with honesty and transparency and I would love to see what kind of sexual harassments references I've been missing all this time.

[Darth Vowrawn]

Oh god. Just because we're not allowed to act like fucking pigs like we have done since forever doesn't mean we're discriminated. Lifting others to equal standing doesn't mean we are getting anything taken away from us.

You sure about that? We are no longer allowed to be men, instead we are neutered pansies constantly afraid of offending someone. Meanwhile, other countries like Russia laugh at us for being a bunch of weak, flabby, cowardly, effeminate, and preachy little "victims" that are too afraid to kill our enemies or defend our homes.

Oh, and toxic masculinity hurts us too. People forget that feminists atleast in my country also raise questions concerning things like mandatory military service which is only mandatory for men and such. Not being able to express your feelings in a healthy way because some emotionally crippled dad tells you to MAN UP is fucking harmful.

Feminists are screeching about having gotten their mandatory military service here in the States. If you want "rights" you need to have "responsibilities" alongside it, such as getting your arms blown off from an IED.

[Ivarr]

I’m assuming you called Tolkien woke because Aragorn ushered in an era of peace and handed the reins over to Eldarion who continued said peace, right? OMG SO WOKE, U GUYS LOVE PEACE. I LOVE WAR!

Well he did end up marrying a chick who was centuries older than him. That's pretty progressive. I think.

[Darth Vowrawn]

HAHAHAHA so you're a literal incel screaming about your hatred of women on a gaming forum. Congrats, you're the embodiment of the world's most pathetic cliche.

It's markedly less pathetic than a dudebro furry who chugs Heineken and brags about fucking chicks.

[Pheraz]

HAHAHAHA so you're a literal incel screaming about your hatred of women on a gaming forum. Congrats, you're the embodiment of the world's most pathetic cliche.

Yeah it is really getting embarrassing in here
Holy moly mmo champ never let's you down if you want to have a nice cringe

[Kayze]

Pointless question. It doesn't matter if I have or not. From a moral standpoint, focusing on race and gender is inherently racist and sexist, by definition. You shouldn't treat someone as "woman" or "black man" or "white male", it is wrong. Yet, one side of the political spectrum, and ONLY that side, are okay with being blatantly racists. It doesn't matter if you dress up your discrimination with "power equals privilege" or some other cultist BS, it is still wrong.

I'm sorry, which side constantly considers every Arab person a terrorist or a Latino an illegal immigrant rapist? What about the increased hate towards Asian Americans? Like, was it the snowflakes that called COVID the "Kung Flu" or said China must have manufactured the virus despite no evidence? But sure, live in your reality where a literal video game is depressing you so much that you gotta distort it into your own safespace victimhood. "Freedom except for the parts I hate like women rights, LGBTQ, and liberals"

[DingDongKing]

Well he did end up marrying a chick who was centuries older than him. That's pretty progressive. I think.

It’s not progressive. It’s WOKE MRNGGGH.

Side note, some incel surely needs to make a song called ‘Single Men’, which is a Weird Al style parody of the Beyoncé song. Where they talk about being ‘emasculated’ and hating ‘furries’ and whatever other shit they get upset about.

[Darth Vowrawn]

I'm sorry, which side constantly considers every Arab person a terrorist or a Latino an illegal immigrant rapist?

Islam is a terrorist religion, was made so by the Prophet Muhammad, maybe you should ask him why there are so many Muslim terrorists.

Also, no one considers "all Latinos" to be illegal immigrants and "rapists".

What about the increased hate towards Asian Americans?

You mean the fake "hate crime wave" that was a blatant hoax?

Like, was it the snowflakes that called COVID the "Kung Flu" or said China must have manufactured the virus despite no evidence?

You mean the evidence that CNN is now confirming? You only ignored it because your masters told you it didn't exist, brainlet.

But sure, live in your reality where a literal video game is depressing you so much that you gotta distort it into your own safespace victimhood.

Is that why male Leftists are the most sexist men on the planet? Or is it why your kind is full pedophile acceptance movements?


Infracted.

Some 10/10 bigotry there.

[Nalam the Venom]

No i mean that if they called out for bugs, they fix the bugs within a week at most.

[Oneer]

So.... less based on merit, more on "diverse" skintones and what's between their legs? Am I reading this correctly?

Meritocracy & meritocratic systems are considered fascist to the fringe vocalists looking to make headway from all this.

[Beefhammer]

Where is our paid time off for not getting any development on the product we paid for?

You paid for access to the servers to play the game in it's current state at any given time. Or have you never read any of the ToS or EULA you agreed to?
