What I got from this was “tldr of REC and why they’re cool”, nothing about the current controversy in any capacity. Obviously you can’t do much here because corporations go brrr but you did not condemn Vex nor IFI for the actions taken, merely said “the discussions are never easy”, which actually, they are quite easy, vex and IFI are horrible and victimblamed/gaslighted the vex community. They do illegal business practices, immoral behavior, and have an extremely toxic workplace, and to top it all off they can’t even respond to it. if it was a hard discussion the entire vex community wouldn’t be practically unanimously against the company.
THIS is what the vex discord is now. A vex logo with a giant red X on it, and saying to do first. Didn’t see one person complain about the change in two hours of the community coming in and asking questions. It got so clogged they had to put slow mode on and mute a bunch of people. But all of those people were against your partners.
This is a very easy discussion. I can write it for you:
VEX and IFI are objectively bad companies in practically every way, and they should be condemned fully. A company in charge of childrens education should not be dealing with the CEO pulling a .45 on an employee casually, sexual harassment rampant, racism, misogyny, and people like certain head referees (who I apparnetly can’t say on here because this post will be blocked) who are talking to minors. (I believe Willow and Mary’s situation is more the vex community and outside of vex and ifi’s control, though just as important).
