"GamerGate 2.0" Begins as Grifter Organization Sweet Baby, Inc. Pressures Game Developers to Fill Their Games With Divisive Woke Content

The left is determined to invade and invert every single pastime, turning all leisure activities into propaganda exercises for Marxism. They are following the example of their nationalist socialist fellow-travelers the Nazis, who themselves invaded all social clubs and Nazified them. The end-goal is to permit the populace no escape from never-ending indoctrination.

For at least ten years, the left has been attempting to subvert the video game industry. As is so often the case with the left, they see (spit) men, often white, having fun which is Not Approved by the Regime, engaging in anti-social, sexist activities like Not Declaring Their Allyship With Women and Other Minorities Every Half Hour.

Although people aligned with the GamerGate customer revolt partly stopped the previous invasion, the forces of wokeness and authoritarianism came roaring back in recent years.

You've probably heard of "sensitivity readers" in the publishing industry. These are grifters who "offer" their services to read unpublished manuscripts and tell publishers in which way they must be censored -- or blocked from publishing altogether -- to avoid the friends and allies of the sensitivity readers from #Cancelling the publisher and causing them major public relations grief. And, they threaten, losses of profit as well. (Though I think that's a phantasmal threat -- everyone hates these people, and anyone who defies them will make more money, not less.)

Sweet Baby Inc. claims to be a game development company, but they develop no games. Instead, they pressure actual game companies to hire them to censor their games for them. In addition, Sweet Baby Inc. demands that the companies paying them for their worthless services increase Muh Representation in every game, no matter how little sense it makes.

For example, Sweet Baby Inc. was hired by the God of War developers. The latest game involves the Norse gods. God of War includes a black female Norse god.

Sure, sure.

Sweet Baby Inc. was hired by Insomniac Studios to "advise" them on Spider-Man 2. Spider-Man 2 increased diversity by:

* Including the younger black replacement character Miles Morales, and, rather than having Miles in a protege role learning from the older, much more experienced Peter Parker, frequently outshining him.

* Turning Mary Jane, who is a supermodel into the comics, into a somewhat dumpy woman of very average looks. (In fairness, they did this in the first one, too, which Sweet Baby Inc. did not work on.)

* Turning Mary Jane, who is, as noted, just a model, into a badass who can take down heavily armed thugs just as well as John McClane, because all women are strong. They just have to believe in themselves!

* Defacing its Spanish language parts by adopting the fake white transgender lingo "Latinx."

* Turning the famously, flagrantly heterosexual Black Cat, whose relationship with Peter Parker was decidedly sexual and less emotional, into a lesbian, because the key to Good Writing is to just fill everything with lesbians as if they were bedbugs.

* Forcing people to spend a lot of time playing a deaf minority girl (of course), who is presented as a hero as she illegally sprays pro-gay graffiti on other people's buildings.

And etc.

Spider-Man 2 did not bomb, because the first Spider-Man was the biggest selling game in Sony's history.

But it only sold half as much as the first game.

They also "consulted" on Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. This game is one of the biggest bombs of the year and will likely destroy Rocksteady studio, which developed it, and that destruction is well-earned.

Although the game's failure cannot be blamed solely on wokeness - reviewers call its gameplay boring and incredibly repetitive -- it is also offending people with its wokeness. For example, the "Kill the Justice League" is in fact the main goal of the game, and the players do get to murder Batman, Green Lantern (the black one, John Stewart, of course), the Flash, and Superman. They're all under the mental control of Brainiac, and now evil.

You know who's not under Brainiac's control, and so who you don't murder? Wonder Woman -- because, as Anita Sarkesian has been claiming for a decade, you can kill all the male characters you want in a game, you can slaughter men by the literal hundreds, but if a single female character is on the receiving end of violence, then that's Sexist and encouraging violence and r*pe against women.

How does Sweet Baby Inc. get actual game developer companies to make worse and more unpopular games than they otherwise would, and get paid for telling people how to lose money?

It's very simple, as the founder of the grifter group explains: You pitch your money-losing ideas to the companies' leaders. Then, when they turn down your ideas (as they SHOULD!), you just go to the marketing department and "terrify" them by telling them how much money they'll lose when Sweet Baby Inc.'s ideological allies cancel the game for not being sufficiently woke:

The Co-Founder of Sweet Baby Inc Kim Belair proudly explains the method she uses to force bosses at game studios to censor, alter, and "diversify" game projects she feels are problematic - "Terrify them" aka threaten them with the anger of the cancel culture mob. pic.twitter.com/eFJZeKqSZd

People are now noticing that Sweet Baby Inc. is associated with a whole string of woke bombs. Video games are expensive -- they cost $50-90 a pop now -- and people do not like spending the better part of a hundred bucks on a dreary, boring woke sermon.

And actual games journalists are now going through the statements made by Kim Bellair, the grifter group's founder, and its various other talentless bent weirdoes, and finding that they really, really, really hate men, white people, and straight people, and especially hate straight white men.

Also known as "the very backbone of the videogame market."

Kim Belair says that white male gamers are "picky babies."

About two-thirds through the 30 minute presentation Belair compared white male gamers to picky babies saying, "I think in our industry and in so many creative industries -- if you want to look at film, and, television and any art form -- we start treating our core demographics as a fixed and static value something that does not want to change and something that is locked in place."
"So despite the changing face of audiences, despite the changing face of conferences like this one, we still look at our core demographics and say, 'Okay, they're white, cis, hetero males.' And we cater almost exclusively to them. And the problem is that we don't just cater to them like, 'You know, here's something that we think you'll enjoy.' We cater to them like a picky baby."
She elaborated, "We feed them the same thing that we know that they love and we keep on feeding it. We're like, 'Here you go. We know you love it. Eat this. Eat this. Eat this.' So then when they get anything else they react as a picky baby would, which would be like, 'Oh! No thank you. I do not want this.' And we've actually done this so long that what we're doing is creating an entire nation of picky babies and they make us scared to deviate from what we actually want to do. Just in case these picky babies don't want to play our games."

She really wants the videogame industry to stop making games for straight white men.

Next, she said, "The way that we look at demographics is that we go, OK, the majority of our player base is, let's say, a white male. So we're going to make stuff for white males. But if you make something from the perspective of an Asian trans woman, and it's really strong, then it will work for people."

An account on Steam created a plug-in (if that's the right word) called "Sweet Baby Inc. Detected." The point of this plug-in was to alert you if a game you were going to buy was mutilated by the talentless man-hating wastes of space at the company.

A Sweet Baby Inc. employee immediately began harassing the account and attempting to get him banned.

In turn, she (?) got banned from X, because organizing a campaign to mass-report someone is a violation of Twitter's/X's terms of service.

Kindred attempted to get Kabrutus and his Steam Curator list taken down in a series of posts on X.
First, Kindred wrote, "The Steam curator harassment group Sweet Baby Inc detected is lead by this person, kabrutusrambo. Here's them trying to be slick so they don't get reported. Even with the discriminatory language filed off, the group itself still fails the code of conduct."

Next, Kindred stated, "anyway report the f*** out of this group."

Finally, Kindred added, "And report the creator since he loves his account so much."
Kindred revealed on BlueSky her X account was limited writing, "They got my a**, I'm guessing a few hundred gamers reported me."
Kindred then shared a screenshot that reads, "After careful review, we determined your account broke the X rules. Your account is temporarily in read-only mode, which means you can't post, Repost, or Like content. Most accounts regain full access in a week, but it could take longer."

And now Sweet Baby Inc. is following the example of Zoe Quinn all those years ago, and running to their friends at soon-to-be-shuttered woke game site Kotaku.

Following this failed cancellation and a greater light being shed on comments that Sweet Baby Inc. CEO Kim Belair and her employees have made, Belair and her co-founder David Bedard quickly ran to Kotaku to do damage control.
The entire purpose of the article is to try and shape Sweet Baby Inc.'s image as a harmless narrative design company. However, it fails at that as Belair contradicts what's on her own company's website as well as previous comments she's made in the past.
She informs Kotaku, "Sweet Baby is, at its core, a narrative development company. That means anything from script writing to narrative design to narrative direction, to story reviews."
She adds, "One of the things that we do offer is cultural consultations or authenticity consultations. For us, that generally means that we might be asked to look at a story if there's a character in it who is marginalized in certain way, and [the studio] wants us to connect them with a consultant who can bring a little bit of authenticity...But the perspective is never that we're coming in and injecting diversity...For the most part, it's the reverse. It's that a company has created a character and they want to make that character more representative and more interesting."

The black Norse god wasn't "injecting diversity"? Race-swapping Deadshot wasn't "injecting diversity?" (I know they made Deadshot black in the movie, but in the Arkham universe, where this game supposedly takes place, Deadshot has already been depicted twice, and he was white, as he is in the comics.)

Turning the most famously Down With the D heterosexual Black Cat into a lesbian wasn't "injecting diversity"?

The company's own website makes it very clear they want to inject diversity into games. Their About Us section reads, "Founded in 2018, Sweet Baby Inc. is a narrative development and consultation studio based in Montreal and working around the globe. Our mission is to tell better, more empathetic stories while diversifying and enriching the video games industry. We aim to make games more engaging, more fun, more meaningful, and more inclusive, for everyone."
...
Their Outreach section also states, "New and marginalized talent can change this industry if given the proper support. We want to provide this through our outreach programs."
...
Belair also stated in 2019 that she did not want a video game developer to include a Frenchman, but rather wanted that character to be black.
She said at the Game Developers Conference, "I once worked on a project where they had an all-white cast where they expressed their desire, 'Okay, we need to mix it up a bit. How about this character's like stereotypically French.' So they have a beret and they have like a striped shirt. And I was like, 'Okay, if you need to do that, can we at least make them a person of color?' And they said, 'Oh no, that would be weird. They're already French.'"
"So I want to do better than this," she asserted.
It's very clear that Belair and Sweet Baby Inc. do indeed want to inject diversity into games and she's just straight lying to Kotaku in order to try and save the company's image.
It wasn't just Belair, Bedard decided to hide behind his employees identities. He told Kotaku, "People can't imagine that we might do anything else but DEI. They can't imagine that we're just talented writers, that we're talented narrative designers and that people are hiring us because we tell good stories, because we collaborate well, and because we write video games."

If you're such talented writers, why can you only secure jobs in this very stupid parasitic grifter organization where you merely make demands to turn white characters black and straight characters gay? Why can you only secure work in DEI charity grifter groups? WHY CAN'T YOU MAKE YOUR OWN GAMES AND IPs? Why are you only able to piggyback and dickride on the creations of other, actually talented people?

BTW, I didn't buy a PS5 and was waiting to buy one when Spider-Man 2 and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League came out. But when I read about all the wokeness, and the fact that I'd have to spend more than half the game not playing as Spider-Man, but as Fake Minority Replacement Spider-Man and Deaf Girl Graffiti LGBT propagandist, I decided I would wait for Suicide Squad. And than that turned out to be an even bigger disappointment than Spider-Man.

So now I just might skip this cycle of videogames. I guess I'm an ex-videgamer now.

Well done, games studios!

If you think this is just about movies or videogames -- I'm sorry, you're wrong. As I mentioned earlier, these people are on a mission to Wokify every single hobby, pastime, or social group that exists, just as their political forebearers the Nazis did.

The goal is to make it so that you are never free of woke indoctrination and constant reinforcement of THE MESSAGE.

You cannot escape it, even in your fictions and fantasies.

There will be NO ESCAPE -- not even in your dreams.

And no decent art has ever, in all of history, been made by a Political Commissar.

A Hopeful Sign: One game by a smaller studio, Hell-Divers 2, is enjoying huge success right now. People are laughing at the multi-hundred-million dollar bomb Suicide Squad, wondering why they can't just make a good game with all that money like Hell-Divers 2 did for far less.

Hell-Divers is imposing a strictly No Politics rule on itself and users.

How serious are they about that? Well one little bitch began whining that he wanted the game designers to make a rainbow flag cape available. So that they could dress their characters in it, and bring Current Day Gay Extremist Advocacy into a science-fiction game where such a flag would make no sense.

What was Hell Divers 2's response? Well, according to the pansy who was pushing to put the gay flag into the game -- the banned him just for proposing it.

Shiiiiiiit... I might have to buy a new platform just to play Hell Divers 2!

I don't know if that story is true; someone claimed it online. He could be making it up.

Still -- there is no rainbow flag cape in the game.

They are the next logical iteration of the jesse jackson scam -- corporations would pay jesse jackson to "collaborate" with them and "help" make them more "diverse."

"So despite the changing face of audiences, despite the changing face of conferences like this one, we still look at our core demographics and say, 'Okay, they're white, cis, hetero males.' And we cater almost exclusively to them. And the problem is that we don't just cater to them like, 'You know, here's something that we think you'll enjoy.' We cater to them like a picky baby."

90 Big studio games are mostly crap now because of the Woke virus, adding microtransactions, and also because they've unfortunately lost touch with how to make interesting and engaging games.

You can still find some old-school good games being put out by very small independent developers (some of them are developed by only one person). They're also usually very affordable. Most of the games I buy on Steam these days are $10 or less and better than the big studio games that cost $60+.

95 I'm afraid we've probably just scratched the surface here. While Sarkissian had a high-profile flame out when Feminist Frequency shuttered last year, Zoe Quinn is still out there, flying under the radar. She had a stint in ruining comics and has now found work as a "narrative designer". This us the same work Sweet Baby is doing.

While Quinn us friends with some if the SBI group, she's either getting work as a freelancer, secretly on staff at SBI, or part of another unnamed group. It definitely looks like all of these players are connected through fellow travelers in Canada, specifically Montreal. Their network may extend through shared work at Ubisoft Montreal, too.

131 You can still find some old-school good games being put out by very small independent developers (some of them are developed by only one person). They're also usually very affordable. Most of the games I buy on Steam these days are $10 or less and better than the big studio games that cost $60+.

I've been spending WAYYYYY.... too much time playing starfield. I have to say it's a pretty good game and i don't specifically notice much in the way of DEI crap. it's a diverse cast sure, but it's galaxy spanning, it's supposed to be. and it seems pretty organically done from what i can tell. i've not had anything ping me as outrageous.

I actually played the MS Bridge free game quite a few times back in the day, despite my aversion to any card game with the word "trump" in it.

When I previously tried playing it live and they were explaining the bidding rules and how they were code for how many trump cards you had, I exploded "Why don't I just say I have 9 diamonds! Everyone but me knows that's what it means!

189 The Steam Curator thing isn't an add-on. A Curator is someone who posts mini-reviews of games, along with a quick "Recommended" or "Not Recommended". Most of the curators are serious. But others...

One curator calls him(?)self Hodor, and all of his "reviews" only say "Hodor". I think it's a GoT reference?

If you're looking at an excuse for a PS5, you could check.out an upcoming Korean game called Spectral Blade. It's best known right now because the female lead looks hot, the woke left whined about female stereotypes and male gaze, and the game developers introduced the 30 year old woman that they modeled the character after (and used for mo-cap).

It's due out next month.

190 I'm surprised the campaign finance reporting by "mel" has not been discussed more today.

I saw her talk with Viva Frei, and she says she has another report dropping probably Thursday. This is an important story since it is the mechanism behind the political class being so impervious to the voter's concerns. They are all in it for campaign cash that they convert to personal wealth. This is how they are bought.

If you get a chance, I recommend the recent vivafrei podcast on Rumble. It is 2 hours, and slow, but she covers a lot (while leaving a lot of questions.) It ties in to the O'Keefe (OMG) reporting on ghost donors. She is tracking the donations and spending of mostly Republican politicians. (She says eyepatch McCain is the worst) and some democrats.

193 I think most "white male gamers" would not be opposed to hawt bisexual women in their games.

Just like Lara Croft was very clearly designed to be sex on wheels in the beginning. Very popular for a reason. Same with Bloodrayne: one of the main things it had going for it was the abundance of hot women in very, very tight clothing and cleavage.

If you want to go that route, sure, you can make a good game and sell lots. Sex sells!
But "Stick a black girl in it and make it gay and it will sell" just isn't a good pitch.

217 Spider-Man 2 did not bomb, because the first Spider-Man was the biggest selling game in Sony's history.

Those sales are inflated quite a bit from the game being bundled in with PS5s. Supposedly Sony needs it to sell a minimum of six million units on PS5 to retain the rights to make Spiderman games, so they bundled it in with the systems to shore up the sales numbers.

219 It doesn't matter if these big budget Woke games flop. I've been exploring the Indie horror game scene because I'm considering developing one of my short stories as a game using Unreal Engine, and I was astounded at the innovation and creativity I found in that subculture. Although many of the games are rough and primitive, some--such as Iron Lung--are fun and worthwhile to play.

220 I played Cyberpunk recently, too. It was... okay. Like you said, they present an open world but think people want something that is very much on rails.

Mad Max has probably been my favorite overall, and that was a few years ago. I'm a sucker for the Mad Max stuff, though, so I'm sure that helped.

The MMORPG I play has that issue. It has story, open zones, achievement, avoids the infinite chase to top level gear, has 2 kinds of PvP in other areas of the game - one is capture the map in large teams, the other more standard small group fights, has raid zones, smaller instanced dungeons (2 kinds)

The most common complaint is that nobody tells players what to do next.

Speaking of Cyberpunk.

There was a female character that you couldn't romance unless you were also a female. Except people discovered in the files that there was dialogue for her interacting with men, too. It was just removed from the options before publishing because the tranny character and the two gay dudes weren't enough. They removed her option because gay. IIRC if you were a man you could "talk" to multiple gay men and trannies, and only one woman.

And for an "open world" you couldn't do much of anything when the tranny did his tranny thing. Yay, be proud of trannies, yay, I support trannies.

Try to make the grooming less obvious, guys.

Me and a couple of Nerdly friends of mine wrote a business plan for a Singles Bar, that had internet dating built in... PCs built into the tables, where you could browse others 'ads'... who were there. Your 'base' picture would have to be taken by an in house Photographer... but you could add others once your ad was done.

Also had an idea where your DJ was just an online Jukebox, but you could 'bid' for a song... with highest bid going first, and all that money going to the charity of the night.

>Although people aligned with the GamerGate customer revolt partly stopped the previous invasion

No, it didn't. The GamerGate tantrum had zero effect on the video games industry, which has become more woke up to the AAA level since.

>Turning Mary Jane, who is a supermodel into the comics, into a somewhat dumpy woman of very average looks

That wasn't Sweet Baby. As has been pointed out repeatedly on social media, the model for MJ is one of the staff writers inserting herself into the game. That can't happen without the assistance and approval of multiple levels of modellers, designers and art directors.

No, they aren't. Accounting for inflation, video games and consoles are cheaper than they've ever been, and the elimination of digital media means they're getting even cheaper.

No matter what a publisher or studio does, they'll get white-hot hatred, including death threats. So they've just stopped listening to their customers entirely. "Community engagement" is foisted off on an intern or nepotism hire.

Video games are absolutely full of woke nonsense, but that's only part of the problem. Baldur's Gate 3 lets you have sex with a bear and it's single-handedly saving all of Hasbro with its revenues. The real problem is that AAA game dev is incredibly risky and investors aren't willing to accept that volatile of an ROI any more. Gamers could fix this by not being shrieky autists and voting with their wallets, but they won't. The current state of the industry is an own goal by gamers.

356 "What was Hell Divers 2's response? Well, according to the pansy who was pushing to put the gay flag into the game -- the banned him just for proposing it."

I'm not into games like that at all... but I might have to buy a copy, just to support that behaviour.

357 Howdy! This is kind of off topic but I need some advice
from an established blog. Is it difficult to set up your own blog?
I'm not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty fast.
I'm thinking about setting up my own but I'm not sure where to start.

Do you have any points or suggestions? Thanks
