Because the two go hand in hand. Diversity and inclusion reporting systems in practice are merely set up to silence dissent. In bich tech companies like Google and Amazon it's woke ideologist and in Blizzard it seems to be creepy neckbeards.

On large companies you can find everything, males that dont work, females that dont work, males that work, females that work, people that are assholes on both sexes and good people as well.

Acting like they are obligated to see Blizzard first, and hear their side of the story, tell them about every person who's been snitching on them, before the government gets the moral right to carry out this investigation, with the blessings of Blizzard's higher ups. Followed by this snide, cynical jab of "this is why companies move out of California". Why, because the local authorities are less willing to put up with this bullshit? Because they actually hold you accountable? Do you think you'll have less trouble with the government in Texas? Because if the Texan authorities won't handle a case like that, that says more about Texas than it does about California. This isn't the absolution of sin you want it to be, Blizzard.

While I was in the military, we had to do anti-rape/sexual harassment training like every other month. To those who wouldn't even think to do something like this, it's just tedious and stops us from getting actual work done. To those who don't give a shit and will do it the moment they think they can get away with it, the best it will do is show them what is expected so that they can use underhanded methods based on the reasoning that "The training said that we should never do 'A', but it said nothing about not doing 'B'." And since they have to present their case to other sociopaths, they often get away with it with but a slap on the wrist. Meanwhile the actually decent people have one minor screw up (JUST ONE!) and they get the entire book thrown at them with the maximum punishment to make them an example so that the sociopaths in power can tout your termination to the public as them doing a good job. Again, most people understand this concept, but what we're not doing is not holding our leaderships accountable to the same rules that we're expected to abide by

The state of California has a record of bad descisions specially when it comes to corporations.

Not the same exact thing but reminds me when I was given an assignment in college and I wrote about something profound that I experienced in the military on deployment. The next day instead of having it be handed in, the teacher decided we would all read to the class our written work and analyze the assignment as a class based on what we had been taught so far. This was not what we were told was going to happen when given the assignment nor had it happened prior in the class to believe it was even a possibility of happening. Naturally I didn't want to speak to 25 strangers about one of the most traumatic experiences in my life that none of them would even be able to begin to relate to, but I was given the option to read it or get a zero on the assignment. I ended up going to the Vice Dean(who was also a veteran) and explaining the situation and it got taken care of, but it was embarrassing and quite tense and the rest of the semester was awkward in that class.

I love how blizzard literally uses gaslighting at the end of their response. It's a shame you didn't talk to us about what you THINK YOU SAW. It's like they think they'll get away with it as long as they make it sound like California is just misremembering or just seeing things that aren't real.

Yup. It's the same tactic as telling people you apologise if they felt insulted, aka it's not your actions you're apologising for, but rather something they made up in their mind.

Treating the state of california like they do women. Not just a blizzard thing though. This conversation was trying to happen with gamergate, and neckbeards insisted crazy SJW mommy was just trying to ruin video games by idk... Openly talking about how they're treated in gaming spaces, how female characters are portrayed in games etc. The culture in these big corporations is reflected in most of the social cultures in the bigger online games. Breathe the word "feminism" and you're a pariah, because why would we need feminism in a perfectly equal world where women get mistreated, silenced or blamed for it in almost every facet of society that is dominated by straight dudes.

​@@KattReen Maybe if real feminists didn't let the movement get hijacked by 3rd and 4th wave nutjobs who see bad dates as the same as rape, ANYTHING bad that happens to them as sexists, and abusing men as justice and just deserts then people would take it seriously. Here is the bottom line, you can say women have it bad more times then men, but the unfair and unequal treatment is both ways whether women want to admit it or not. The only difference is men are not allowed to talk about, bring it up, or are fought by fake feminists the whole way trying. RAINN is the largest anti-sexual violence organization in the U.S. and they show that since 1998 to today over 2.78 million men in the U.S. had been victims of attempted or full rape, neverminded sexual harassment. Most organizations concede that at minimum 10% of all victims are men. The American Sociological Association did a long term study and found 37% of men reported experiencing some level of sexual harassment in the workplace. 90% of all work place related deaths are men. The Census Bureau show only 20% of custodial parents are fathers, this is the highest it has been in decades. Maybe if these issues were not one sided or worst, actively covered up or fought when it happened to men, men might give 2 shyts when it happened to women. CA state through their courts due to a lawsuit of unequal pay by them analyzed National Women's Soccer League pay and found the womens team “on both a cumulative and an average per-game basis” made more then men. What happened? The leagues new policy is not for both teams despite men making less to split broadcast, sponsorship, prize money and ticket revenue. Similarly women filed an unequal lawsuit against google and an audit showed men received less money then women in that same role forcing a near 10 million payout to the men that would have otherwise ignorantly kept working for unequal pay with the perception they were making more instead. You think this country is dominated by straight dudes? How many women were fired, expelled from university, or had their children ripped from their lives until they paid an absurd ransom on an unsubstantiated and sometimes factually proven false word? Society has catered to the whims of women for two generations now, don't feed people that CA/NY left wing fantasy BS unless you have some facts to back up your propaganda.

Some executives will get let-go. They'll be really upset leaving with millions and millions of dollars.

Well... if only Republicans didn't get rid of a certain Act... but yah know, Moral Majority and all that.

I don't understand why this can go on for so long and stays as is especially in publicly traded companies ? I've seen harassement and HR covering it, as soon as it reached the level above those bad people, the culprits were fired on the spot ,some escorted out of the building by security, end of story don't know of any case after that

When I worked at Best Buy, we had an employee who had previously appeared in Playboy. A guy thought it would be funny to go find it on his phone and show a few buddies he worked with. When this was discovered, he was immediately fired, and we all moved on. That's how you handle situations like this.
