The EEOC was created by the US Govt in the mid 60s. It has long since
been proven, that those who wanted to be successful through legitimate
means (as opposed to getting rich selling drugs and bitchslapping
crack hoes in the street), that regardless of race/gender/ethnic
origin/sexual preference/etc. that as long as you were willing to put
in the work, the rewards were available to you as well as anyone else,
as evident by the succesful females, people of color and gay
population in this country (as has been the case for decades now).

Then DEI came along as a racist/sexist/heterophobic assault on white
straight males and anyone who isn't already displaying signs of mental
illness, as an agenda of thieves who try to justify more than earned.

It is very clearly failing.

The question is whether this failure will be reflected in game
releases?

There is a rather humorous video on the WAB YT channel where peeps are
discussing what is apparently a story path / option in Kingdom Come
Deliverance II, where the character has an option to get his ass
stuffed by another male. Hey! You wanted role playing right! lol...
Mac's argument was that at least it's a choice. This shit cracks me
up.

I wanted to link the video but he deleted it. To see the best of the
YoobzToobz you sometimes gotta be in the right place at the right time
I guess.

Yes but it's still fiction and fictional paths led to that opportunity
in the game. It doesn't have anything to say about reality.
