Its the Mattel issue

I don't want people helping representation that are just doing it to farm brownie points

People are celebrating a AAA game, especially one from Japan, showing something that they usually don't

Mattel is like “look we are feminist and have people of color! Cool no?”

Meanwhile it’s only cishet white men working for them

they are no real allies

Oh and the slaves in low-pay countries

Look, it's shit like this that explains why the fan base lovingly calls ardyn a hobo (and sometimes not so lovingly). It's just ff doing ff and we're all along for the ride

Eurogamer is like Mattel on that front

Being like “look we care about LGBT” whilst only having cishet white men

I hate him. He make my job hard.

So what constitues an ally? If they are bad people for praising a gay character being in the game, then what is an ally?

Job?

They are not bad people for praising LGBT. They are bad people for pretending to care

^

Is there any reason to think they are pretending?

If they truly cared about LGBT they would’ve had LGBT employees

They don’t

Yes because they can't even follow these standards themselves

By that logic Square doesn't care either, they are just pretending for brownie points

Again: Mattel issue

"if they cared about x they shouId have x" is a uh.

See how this goes?

it's an odd thing to say

Mattel pretends to be feminist whilst never even having a woman in a high-end job in their company

particuIarIy if there's no reports if them turning away said x

Are you truly a feminist if you only use it to get money?
