They probably thought it was some sort of fun, but it's just very cringe.

Genocide...?! For fuck's sake man, this is pixels in a video game. I don't think this tool is particularly useful but I also don't see it actively harming anybody or anything. It's just more reason for people to get upset about "the message" or whatever the fuck and pretend like they're being prosecuted because they can no longer freely drop gamer words without consequence.
they dont need a tool, all college now are brainwashed leftists, and most of them are working in Blizzard already. They been pushing "diversity" for a while now.
Oops! Looks like your comp isn’t gay enough. Try adding a different hero to increase your team’s Diversometer™️
Because he's Scandinavian. As we all know, if you're a white, hetero male from Europe you automatically get a 0.
The Juicero didn't harm anyone but that doesn't mean it wasn't fucking retarded. It should both be ridiculed and shunned for it.
It's a fairly normal thing to get irritated by something so mindnumbingly dumb like this "diversity tool".

Say what you will, but this blog news post did an amazing job at distracting from the anti-union messages they sent out internally like 2 days ago and the union busting Acti-Bliz is currently doing to Raven Software.
Just a friendly reminder that art is art. If 80% of developers want to make their protagonists white male, that is the expression of their art.
It's like I'm looking at someones rendition of the Necromonican. What do these words and numbers even mean.
I'd have more sense looking at Calendar Man's cell in Arkham Asylum.
I'm a white, average build heterosexual man. Does that mean my score is zero across the board?
I'm not just talking about this game. I'm talking about the fact that it is happening in every single corporation in America. Look at their websites. Hell, look at the VA website. Now instead of helping Veterans they now have category's of Veteran, female veteran (which to a degree I can understand), and now minority veteran, and LGBTQ veterans. They are separating us via race, gender, sexual preference, while at the same time making it a net zero to be white in the work force.
The more diverse you are...the more hiring points you get.
Saying you must hire via :black, gay, woman, etc etc....only validates exactly what I am saying. They are hiring via not being white instead of how good you are. And you wonder why the writing in new shows suck so bad and push so much woke propaganda that they don't even try to hide it anymore. They used to try and be covert about their message...now they are completely overt about it and shoving it in your face. And the message is "straight, white, male bad".
Let me know when diversity is applied to anyone else but white men. Let me know when they make another Zulu" movie but instead of making the tribe actual Zulu....we push a woke message of diversity and make it look more like how the progressive left want it to be instead.
The re-writing of hero's and the obvious message coming from Hollyweird.
Freely drop gamer words without consequence? I dunno what "gamer words" are that you are implying need to be banned and censored by a left wing political group that is taking over entire industry's.
I mean...the recent freak out by those people because of Musk looking to buy twitter is more proof of what they've been doing. It's about controlling the message and shoving it down our throats relentlessly.
A decade ago people joked that this checkbox/tokenism shit would be the ugly baby birthed by the marriage between progressive and corporate cultures and here we are. What a time to live in.
Come on dude, I'm not even shilling for Blizzard here. I think the tool is stupid as fuck and it was pretty dumb for Activision to unveil it in the way they did but I also don't see why we're immediately jumping to the conclusion that this is proof of some kind of dystopian hellscape.
So why did they burn money (that could've been spent on actual game development) on something they're not even using? What a fucking degenerate company lol.We’ve edited this blog post to clarify that this prototype is not being used in active game development.
but they aren't allowed to do that. You see...the point of this is to push the straight white male out while demonizing him. While forgetting...how the gaming industry was able to rise in the first place.

Except their is a former article explaining about how they are using it, love using it, and plan to use it more for their next woke games they come out with or the next IP they intend to destroy via woke diversity check boxing. C'mon man...it's 2022...they are so blatant in their anti-whiteness...that it's REDICULOUS to even try to hide it anymore or come to their defense. We see and know what they are doing.
That's honestly what you have to expect when your bottomline is "less white is more good." Corporations are just going to hone in on that basic notion and make daft shit like this.
