The A.C.L.U. acknowledges that Ms. Oh, who is Korean American, never used any kind of racial slur. But the group says that her use of certain phrases and words demonstrated a pattern of willful anti-Black animus.
In one instance, according to court documents, she told a Black superior that she was “afraid” to talk with him. In another, she told a manager that their conversation was “chastising.” And in a meeting, she repeated a satirical phrase likening her bosses’ behavior to suffering “beatings.”

“We’re not here to prove anything other than the impact of her actions was very real — that she caused harm,” Mr. Margolis said, according to a transcript of his remarks. “She caused serious harm to Black members of the A.C.L.U. community.”

How are these people real. I mean seriously, how?

Whatever Woke Box Soyries Latinx they're selling now has little to do with the Xbox brand anymore. No wonder its dead.

I actually like the prior quote in that, the ACLU apparently doesn't care about due process anymore. Evidence? Fuck that, it's whatever someone alleges!

Niantic is Google though, right?

Same Google that created the racist AI...

Its clearly racist that she couldn't go to a work supervisor to discuss work related issues because of fear of him taking it personally and enacting some kind of reprisal.

What did she think he was gonna do? Cook up some bogus racism charges and try and get her fired?

Ohhhh....

IrishNinja popped up in Constructive and is immediately threadbanned without response:

User threadbanned: ignoring the rules of the thread

i want to preface this by saying i am attempting to navigate an ongoing issue while honoring the OP request of not using this thread to relitigate individual bans, as that is not my intention; rather, i want to raise a concern regarding a pattern in recent times that have started to isolate elements of the muslim community here, as well as those of us in socialist & other circles in solidarity with them. to this end, i will provide a few brief examples without the specifics of username/threads etc.

one recent instance saw a palestinian member (whose voice is rather underrepresented in this community, particularly in this moment) banned for pointing out how constant concerns/prioritizing of trump felt as though parts of this community did not care for the atrocities taking place & the US's continued efforts to both support and defend it the genocide. another similarly chided the same sentiment that the biden admin is responsible, not the hypothetical of a trump one, both of which immediately saw bans for invoking the upcoming election in this topic - despite said group being constantly bombarded with minimizing of the horrors the palestinian people are currently facing, as this very election is what is most often centered. granted, the former example was (understandably) heated, but the latter didn't even point any fingers, yet both were given the reason of "sniping at other members".
still another member elsewhere saw a one month ban for arguing that this president has not budged on (his self proposed) zionism.

there are numerous other examples, so again i do not wish to harp on these particulars too much - the point being, moderation has not been clear on the apparently subjective criteria in certain threads, and has seemed especially punitive towards a muslim community already having dealt with past instance of islamaphobia here on resetera. i do not know if either of our groups have run afoul of certain portions of said moderation, or if there is some form of mass reporting taking place, but given both the ongoing genocide & ramadan, i am asking for clarity & some grace here. i understand these are (rightfully) contentions topics, and as always appreciate our staff trying to help navigate them - but while i do not believe the intention here is to silence these communities, this is in fact becoming the case, and there are currently no other venues to share this concern that i'm aware of.

again, i'm pointing this out in good faith, because i do not wish to see more members of our communities lost - especially when, again, their perspective is needed in this time. i hope this request is met in the same manner, and appreciate clarification & camaraderie here.

Apparently her former boyfriend was Philosophytube, who later came out as trans and is now known as Abigail Thorn and is now one of the most prominent UK trans voices. (and was also recently cast for the new Star Wars show Acolyte)

At this point, the internet is just a weirdo zoo where the normal people visit occasionally to view the weirdos in their cages and then go back to their normal lives that are generally devoid of weirdos.

And who would that community be, the rainbow communists that don't buy games?
