SJW in Tech
Why are there so many SJW in tech and modern media like Netflix? I've been keeping track of Netflix's Witcher Series, which originated in Poland and somehow they are trying to turn white polish characters into other races that are not known to be in Poland at the time. Also one of the main writers is a proud SJW who spends time trolling conservatives on twitter.
There are no SJWs on WSO.
Cheers to that sir.
there are plenty
lies
Can't hack in any other industry?
Just to confirm, SJW means when you're not an asshole to people, right?
precisely the opposite
Its just entertainment. Hamilton was a phenomenal musical that I really enjoyed. They re-casted every white person as someone who wasn't white. Is that really a big deal? Entertainment and media can really just do whatever they want and if you don't like it then don't use it. It's artistic freedom
Have you played the Witcher? The company that made the Witcher (CD Projekt Red) is from Poland. The Witcher itself is set in an entirely fictional location... medieval Poland lmao. What next? Westeros is medieval France?
>What next? Westeros is medieval France?
I thought Westeros was medieval England...
So if I’m following correctly op got mad cus he heard about a nonwhite person in a fantasy series made up some bullshit about it being historical so he could trick himself into thinking he wasn’t being racist and complain about SJW’s and a bunch of other assholes piled on cus this forum is their safe space for that sort of stuff not caring at all that op was prett much just wrong about everything... before 2016 I would’ve found it funny.
correct.
My bad on that, but the game do draw from Polish culture.
Sometimes people with comfortable lives and no real problems will invent ones. I guess it gives them meaning / purpose?
Model life has become very easy - but we still need a purpose, some reason to get out of bed. Thus you have SJWs who are primarily white kids from middle to upper middle class families who have decided to take on the role of champion of the weak and poor as their life mission.
It's a function of geography. Where are the most liberal crowds? Cities. Where are most opportunities in tech and media? Cities. What target market is most scalable and has money to spend? People in cities.
If I'm Netflix, trying to increase user growth and my millennial users want Asian people in medieval Poland, they're getting their goddamn Asians.
This made me LOL but its so true.
> If I'm Netflix, trying to increase user growth and my millennial users want Asian people in medieval Poland, they're getting their goddamn Asians.
Don't overlook the largest growing consumer base in the world - Asia. And I don' think Asians want to see Polish women playing the role of Asian goddess in their movies....so complicated...can I go back to 1997 when no one gave a $shit about this kind of stuff?
Asian girls are so sexy. I want to live in a world where only Asian girls and I exist. Yeah, that'll be my heaven...
Spoken like a true (former?) consultant.
Blame wild imaginations. How else do you come up with terms like "gender fluidity" and "CIS-gendered" and then create the whole belief system behind it?
Buddy in b-school was working at a startup in the Bay for his summer internship. I can't recall the exact story, but he was supposed to read something that 2-Chainz was quoted saying. My buddy read it and says that he spoke it a little gangsta, but not exaggerated... mind you, it was originally quoted in the same manner. This girl, who of course identified non-binary, instead of speaking with him directly that she was upset raised it to HR that it was extremely offensive and he was required to make an apology and attend some local meeting on microaggressions. He said many people, including the CEO and other founders, told him in private what he did was entirely OK and not out of line, they would have too, but they were all just terrified of triggering this girl.
Come to think of it, I'm pretty happy in my finance bubble.
They have this new show called Super Drags or some shit.
I thought it was a complete joke but the problem is it’s real.
WSO taught me the meaning of a SJW. I was not familiar with the acronym. Perhaps, I have been living under a rock.
