Business Sweet Baby employees incite harassment campaign against Steam curator - Critics of Sweet Baby believe that their mission of promoting inclusivity is done at the expense of a game’s narrative quality.

Individuals who work with Sweet Baby Inc. have begun a harassment campaign against the creator of the Sweet Baby Inc. Detected Steam curator.

The curation page is intended to inform users whether a game has relied on Sweet Baby’s “narrative consultation” service.

Critics of Sweet Baby believe that their mission of promoting inclusivity is done at the expense of a game’s narrative quality. Meanwhile the Sweet Baby employees criticize the curator for being ideologically motivated against “woke ppl” and have mocked the curator’s attempts to legitimize their work by avoiding “loaded language” and instead focusing on informing consumers.

The employees in question, Chris Kindred and Felix Kramer have both mentioned the curator, meanwhile Kindred has encouraged their followers to mass flag the curator, as well as his personal Steam account (seemingly to punish him).




Kindred also claims that the curator runs afoul of Steam’s Code of Conduct which says “interactions should not be abusive, disparaging, or inflammatory, nor create an environment that is unwelcoming”. However as stated previously, the curator has been tidying up their page in order to focus on informing consumers.

Kramer on the other hand, accuses the curator of being able to arbitrarily list any game they want as being involved with Sweet Baby and questions its accuracy and legitimacy. However the tweet has since received a community note which explains the curator uses Sweet Baby’s own website as a resource. They also use the game’s credits and verify their involvement before posting. You can check out the Sweet Baby Inc detected curator here.

Found another pretty good video about this. This shits really blown up. I was never involved with Gamer Gate. I didn't even know about it. Not till after it happened. I watched a few videos about it. From what I understand some female that worked on a game was fucking male reviewers to get good reviews. People called her out on it, and she got butthurt about it. At least that's what I got from it.

I am really into this shit though. lol

Oh, man... if you weren't there, words are inadequate to describe what it was like. Only cat gifs come close.

And, we were so young. Just kids, really.

Man, I was there when all of the "gamers are dead" articles dropped all at once on various news publications. August 28th 2014 was the day these articles with similar titles & themes just dropped. It was a very weird coincidence.

I remember it clearly, It truly was a strange time. It started off about a guy calling his gf a ho and people making fun of it and before you knew it it was nigh impossible to discuss it anywhere.
There were 2 camps really when it came to gamergate, those who took it super seriously and those that treat it as shitpostfest 2014. I was in camp B, many laughs were had but for the first time I got the feeling that I was no longer the target audience for the media that I enjoyed and that feeling has only been codified ever since.

Oh man, you should go watch the OG '5 Guys Burgers and Fries' Metokur videos. Remember these conversations were taking place in like 2015.

I was in the first camp, thinking we could make ourselves understood and that we had to be presentable to the public and use PR words/talking points. At some point though I realized that the press are my enemy, that they are fully aware of the truth and choose to ignore it, that the establishment suffered a complete commie takeover and the only thing left to do was laugh at the absurdity. Jim was always right, now I hang out here and say nigger, a shitlord is born.

All this talk of GG reminds me of a bit of history some of us experienced as a consequence: moot being a cuck.

When GG broke out, /v was the place you could talk about it without much fear of moderation. Then, topics on the subject started getting pruned or outright deleted. Lots of anons pleaded to moot, who was revealed to be hanging out with the same journo and dev types involved with GG at SXSW, some event described as something that "celebrates the convergence of tech, film, music, education, and culture". Hipster shit.

Moot was also later found to be hanging around a girl within that hipster proto-SJW crowd, and was unsuccessful in dating her. For a few years, moot attended a few conferences and talked about 4chan like a product, as if it were a social media experience. All the hits, visitors, interactions reported to make a sale to the audience.

He was hanging around the same sort of people that were the ire of gamergate, and the coming moderation against discussion would lead to the exodus to 8chan. I remeber photos of moot at a party with tech celebs, and one of him with Nick Denton, the CEO of Gawker Media.

Upon his return from SXSW, GG wasn't allowed to be discussed.

I put two and two togehter and figured moot was trying to get in good with these rich tech slags. He tasted the goodlife and wanted more of it. I've made refences on here before to the movie They Live; the homeless man in the beginning of the movie betrays humanity to work for the aliens as a collaborator. Going from the streets to a tux and wine glass. The good life. The same shit with moot.

Maybe running the site got to him. And after all the trouble 4chan caused, all the criminal activity and awful news coming from it, it's never been shut down or faced issues like 8chan or KF. Some think it's because Feds keep it arpund for pysops or agiprop.

Gamergate revealed a level of bullshit most of us had never seen before. Ever since then it's caused me to notice these kinds of people more, people like game journos and SJWs and all the shit they get up to. They're dangerous people.

I still say SJW instead of woke. What's funny about most Internet terminology is that it came out of 4chan and 8chan. Most Internet culture was downstream from Tawianeese Basketweaving forums, which I don't think most people realize. That culture was fun, and people enjoy fun. Well, not the Sweet Baby people. They don't
want you to have fun unless you have it their way.

They want to ruin your fun. Maybe that's hats been their ambition since the beginning. People who love games should be the ones making them, not these socjus retards. Somehow the rats got into the corn and nobody noticed.

Good question. Who does still use 4chan?

moot was a cuck and he wanted to cash out. I'm pretty sure consensus is that he was trying to get laid with his anti-GG stuff on 4chan, you're correct.

As loathe as I am to say this is a sequel or continuation of Gamergate, one can't ignore that so many of the players are the same. Diversity consulting is a parasite, because they treat it like a racket. Hell, it's why back in 2014 they freaked out so much when their connections got exposed, they wielded the games media as a cudgel to extort studios into hiring them.
I'm hoping that this time around, the people participating aren't retarded and get tricked into distractions like #notyourshield and realize that the only way forward is to force studios into a position where hiring the diversity consultants is far more costly than avoiding them entirely. Get word out to studio heads and investors that these places have all but admitted to extortion in order to get hired. The path to victory is clear, and it's by making sure these fuckers don't work in the industry again.
In other words, it's probably going to fizzle out and die because there were far too many retards involved the first go around, and now they are popping back up in droves to milk some relevance out of it. I've seen far too many names from back in the day popping up, so I really have no hope that it will be any different.

The thing is, the post that maybe-employee made on Steam is correct. If Sweet Baby disappeared today, the companies would be hiring someone else just like it to do the same thing; they're a symptom, not the disease. The real people behind this are a pile of executives who don't know the first thing about games and couldn't give a shit telling the people under them, "Hey we need some of this diversity thing in our game, so make the characters black chicks or something, I hired some people to do it for you."

The fact that Sweet Baby is neck deep in Chelsea Valkenberg's ruined vagina is a perfectly sufficient reason to want them to crash and burn hard, but sadly just getting rid of that company won't change a thing.

 

[Well Intentioned]

Okay, what the fuck is Treaty 1 territory? I need to know the specific level of idiocy here so I can properly mock it.

It's a performative thing many Canadian companies do as a 'land acknowledgement' for Indigenous folks. Basically, it's, "we recognize we're located on ancient tribal lands (but aren't doing anything to meaningfully rectify the 'situation.')"

It's a stupid meaningless gesture, like a FB avatar being changed to 'support Ukraine' or whatever.

Until you can put a name to the disease, you treat the symptoms. Better to get the idea out that consumers don’t want DEI ESG shit in their media, than to just say “nothing we can do!”.

Better to go back to making their names radioactive across the industry on a financial and social level, restart the mass emailing campaigns and let loose the restraints.

This is just it

It's the same people doing the same things as before. Using SJW ideology to grift. This is nothing new at all. It's the same old same old because why change it if it works. Even that sleaze bag Sarkenisan is still out there working, she's just a little wiser and is keeping to the shadows so her grift doesn't catch attention.

Sweet Baby's crews only problem is that they got the spot light on them, it's not like there isn't a whole industry of these types of companies going around say "nice game you got there, be a real shame if it got cancel because your not woke enuff".

This won't end until the whole culture changes, but thankfully I feel the time is coming. DIE and woke-ism is an expensive hobby and the days of free money are coming to a close. All these DIE scammers are going to have to find a new angle to work as not only is the vidya game industry getting crunched but all companies are starting to feel the pinch of reality settling in.

When the profits run short and you cast your eye across the payroll, it's really, really to see how DIE is costing you a tonne of salaries and bringing in no revenue. At the end of the day these SJW's just don't spend money on this shit and if you keep catering to them your company will DIE.

I'm feeling the same, recent events have me feeling optimistic, with big companies starting to distance themselves from this shit. Media coverage hasn't really been circling the wagons, so I'm hopeful that this just the death throes of the kind of shit that was starting to take root back in 2014. At the same time, these assholes have firmly established themselves, and there's no guarantee that they'll exit the industry if their consulting firms die. It might be worth it to track where these assholes end up, because eventually investors will get retarded again when interest rates come back down to earth.

YAY! We got a shout out from Kakatoo!

https://kotaku.com/sweet-baby-inc-consulting-games-alan-wake-2-dei-1851312428

Oddly enuff the blogger isn't even attacking the Farms, simply writing;

Late last month, one of the company’s consultants discovered a Steam group dedicated to “detecting” games that Sweet Baby Inc. has worked on. The purpose? To encourage people to avoid those games because the group had deemed SBI was pushing a “woke” agenda by working toward greater diversity, equity, and inclusion. The Steam group now has more than 100,000 followers and its own Discord that boasts nearly 2,000 members. But this ire against Sweet Baby Inc. (and DEI initiatives in general) isn’t new—an October 2023 KiwiFarms post shares similar sentiments, stating that the company’s involvement in Remedy’s award-winning 2023 action game Alan Wake 2 was “possibly one of the biggest scandals in gaming history.”

I'm rather shocked the Kakatoo blogger didn't use this opportunity to kink shame us for having bad opinions. Is the tide turning?

Remember, every time a normie gets exposed to the Farms, a Farmer gets his wings. Thanks Kakatoo blogger for helping to spread the good word!

In the end, these companies want MONEH, and while you can keep the coffers filled for awhile with Blackrock funds and guilt-trip purchases of Forspoken, eventually profits will go down and they will have to listen to what customers actually want.

Yup remember that selfie of him in front of a stage and the sudden crackdown.
Oh and that spamming of reports thing he was talking about was when suddenly a cracked.com article written by Zoe suddenly flooded the board and the mods got pissy that people were reporting the spam...
