Ghost Leviathan posted:The revolutionary, controversial idea of getting people's interest by talking about things they like and are interested in in positive ways instead of telling them they and everything they like are dumb and garbage and they should throw everything away and only like the things you like Agreed, that's why getting upset video games aren't "woke enough" is dumb.

the us will just nuke the south in the next civil war! Welp the entire strategic oil reserve is gone also over 70% of your enlisted army has defected at best, or become insurgents at worst. Yea, this is a winning plan.

Protip. If you want to vent on a slack channel with your work-friends, create a completely separate workspace and invite people to it, also set the channel archiving interval to <24hr's. Seperate workspace means that head of "people services" can't recover your chats, and the archival settings mean even if they do get in, they can't scroll up (also you can kick them out).

uncurable mlady posted:y'all do realize that slack export doesn't work this way, right? if you're on a paid plan then people can export public channels, not private ones. private channel/dm export is available but you have to justify it to slack. iirc slackbot tells you if the retention or export settings change as well (but not if an export was done). finally, you can see what the retention rules are for your workspace, go to https://whatever.slack.com/account/workspace-settings#retention to see what they are for your instance. If you create your own workspace, your company can't export it at all. Why risk yourself by using your company's workspace to trash people at your company?

Heath posted:I was thinking this poo poo has its origins in Rowling being like "well I never said Hermione wasn't black " so now people think if the book doesn't specifically say "she was in fact white, with alabaster skin, smooth as milk and flour, a lily in a sea of pearls" that well actually why couldn't she be black, in fact why shouldn't she be black In addition to how dumb all this is, why not just promote some actual, real written literature that has black characters in it? It certainly exists, and has existed since as long as any of those stories did. You could even use "AI" or "machine learning" to translate into english....

If the mayor does anything less then using the metro police to protect the protestors from federal deathsquads she is complacent and this is 100% performative meaningless redmeat for liberals. gently caress her, gently caress the police, gently caress this distraction and gently caress you for defending it.

I think the cool thing about CoD is that the single player story is completely hands-off as far as the profit center is concerned. So you have a lot of artistic freedom (like spec-ops the line) to do warcrimes, or paint the player as the bad-guy, or not. Also extremely cheesy jokes like "Press F to Pay Respects." It's pretty great.

What does feminism have to with women? This is just bullshit woke-bait. If it were a feminist establishment it would be a worker owned co-op where they share the profits and the gender ratio would be much closer to 50/50 but that isn't strictly necessary and would certainly be the least interesting aspect of the place.

Heath posted:Let me try to parse this. I think the OP is trying to make the point that casting a male figure in a prestigious lead chef job is at least in conflict with the supposition that the establishment is supposed to be a celebration of women, which is at best in poor taste and at worst hypocritical, but you're saying that they may have done it unintentionally, therefore it's clear that what they meant by it is that ... Men should be serving women? Or shouldn't be? Or what? Obviously it's not clear, especially if you yourself can't determine if it was intentional or not Woke brands are forbidden to analyze their performative antics, the lack of in-depth analysis and the contradictions this creates is what leads to humor and thus being posted in this thread. Worry not about what they "meant," I assure you, no one cares, let alone them.
