You can say whatever the hell you want. Or you could spend 3 minutes actually looking at public information to see if you're wrong.
- __alexs 10mo agoI don't think these statements are contradictory.
- psyopsy 10mo agoHalf his employees are women—including leadership, programming, and creative roles. If that doesn’t count as “thinking women have a role,” what would? 51%? 90%? You’re relying on blatant social media mischaracterizations over real actions. He actually employs women at parity. You feel like this is unwelcoming. One of those statements is data. The other is fanfic.
- __alexs 10mo agoI didn't say he thinks women don't have a role.
- psyopsy 10mo agoYou said, "I don't think he's said exactly that in his own words but..." That's implicitly saying, "well, he hasn't admitted it outright, but yeah, he basically believes it." Now faced with evidence contrary to your beliefs, you're claiming you didn't say that. When presented with proof, It's ok to just admit that you were wrong.
- __alexs 10mo agoYou seem very defensive of Blow. I didn't say the things you seem to think I was saying. Sorry for the confusion.
- psyopsy 10mo agoAm I supposed to be embarrassed for defending someone against a baseless smear? Anyway, call it "defensive" all you want. It doesn't change the historical thread: You argued, at best, his views made the workplace unwelcoming; the data shows he hires women at parity. You're just backpedaling because the reality didn't match your narrative vibes.
- __alexs 10mo agoI still don't think those are contradictory. If some women that worked with him share their opinion I'll readjust.
- psyopsy 10mo agoLow bar to accuse. High bar to retract. Classic.
- __alexs 9mo agoI'd happily accuse quite a lot of people of not being very welcoming to women in the industry. It's a very common trait to have.
- psyopsy 9mo agoHappily accusing without evidence? Not shocking behavior. What's shocking is to just say it out loud. LMAO. Funny how "believe women" stops applying when their choices contradict your priors.
