Ubisoft will replace two of Watch Dogs: Legion’s in-game podcasts in which British journalist Helen Lewis appears, after becoming “aware” of offensive remarks she’s made in the past about gender identity. (...)

Cancel culture nie istnieje, czego nie rozumiesz?

(..) “The development team worked with an external producer to select speaker profiles for these podcasts and were not aware of the controversy at the time of booking or recording. While the in-game podcasters are following a pre-approved script and are not speaking in their own name or with their own opinions, we understand this collaboration itself may be seen as offensive and we deeply regret any hurt this has caused. In response, we will be replacing these two podcast episodes in an upcoming update and will reinforce our background checks for partners in the future.” (...)

Czyli co, ubisoft będzie zatrudniał tylko osoby które przejdą test poprawności politycznej?

(..) While the game’s podcasts, including those featuring Lewis, have been lauded for their writing, including by Kotaku, Lewis’ involvement in them has been criticized on Twitter and the gaming forum ResetEra after people began to connect the voice in the game with the journalist behind statements and positions many regard as transphobic. (...)

No tak, wspaniały przykład fałszywej powszechności, kółeczko wzajemnej adoracji zrobiło gówno burze na 3k polubień na twitterze i już mamy "many".

(..) In 2017, Lewis published an op-ed for The Times called “A man can’t just say he has turned into a woman,” in which the writer was critical of new legislation being proposed in the UK to make transitioning easier. “What the government proposes is a radical rewriting of our understanding of identity: Now it’s a question of an internal essence—a soul, if you will,” Lewis wrote. “Being a woman or a man is now entirely in your head.” (..)

Jakkolwiek ktoś coś takiego odbiera, zgadza się z tym lub nie, #!$%@? kogoś z roboty tylko na tej podstawie jest po prostu #!$%@?. Ubi gra tak żeby nic nie stracić, a duże dzieci z kolorowymi włosami podskakują ze szczęścia, bo to kolejna korporacja zgina posłusznie kark. Żenada.
