But, it came right out of the gate with The Message (Get Woke!) and I lost interest.
I am a black (descendant of American slaves) engineer who’s done well during his career, part of it writing video games. I don’t like leading with that info, but unfortunately it’s important to give context lest this comment be downvoted out of existence bc too many will assume I’m white.
I wish we could just tell the story of someone who did something noteworthy. If some physical attribute is noteworthy, then show a picture or tell the relevant attributes in order to surprise and/or delight the consumer.
But, please, enough finger pointing and nasty accusations in the name of The Message.
The Struggle is Real, but it ain’t all bad all the time, and I’m weary of hearing that it is.
In all seriousness though, do you not see how incredibly self absorbed and outright anti-empirical this comes across as? The article briefly mentions the directly relevant and real existence of sexism in computing in the first paragraph (40 years ago mind you!) and then goes on to be almost entirely about the woman and her game, and you couldn't manage to contain your faux outrage at being reminded of uncomfortable truths.
I think the fact that you thought being a minority gives you a free pass for not reading the article and giving this nonsense sermon about wokeism tells me you don't really understand the movement you're lecturing against.
If only the minority would shut up and listen all the troubles would woke themselves out.
