    The chuds are butthurt that an Obsidian artist said he would prioritize helping artists of color get into the industry over “crusty old white men” or something along those lines. They’re just taking a self deprecating joke too seriously, imo.

      Ah, so textbook ageism/racial discrimination in hiring.

      I wonder what’s going to come of it.

        Nothing, because one artist writing off the cuff on Twitter doesn’t represent an entire company’s hiring practices

          All they have to do is look at the demographics of who applied and who got hired, and if there’s a statistical discrepancy, bada bing bada boom, you got a fine.
