People said the same shit during Pizzagate. And look what happened there. There isn't smoke here, it's made up outrage, which is more akin to folks kicking up dust. In this case I think they've huffed too much of their own fart dust.

People have poor mental health, no control of their lives, no control over the industry through their consumerism like they pretend (the average person buying Spiderman 2 doesn't give a shit about this controversy), and so they are looking to shit on a consultancy company to make themselves feel like they have any power. The reality is most people just care whether a game is good or not, not whether it has DEI elements included or whatever else.
