Laura Fryer gives a fairly scathing review of HR’s encroachment and obvious power grab to be less “day to day” and more to (verbatim) be “at the same level or above the CEO”.

Video goes into how HR makes toxic work environments that demonize ever speaking out or questioning anything, and the toxic positivity that holds games back.

From HR -> “People and Culture” -> “Chief Disruptors”

    It’s simply that corporations don’t understand creative work.

    I wish you were a tad politically literate. Capitalists are against 🌈creativity✨ Corporations are owned by capitalists. It is in their interests to exploit the workers’ creative process, even sabotage them, for undeterred profit.

    They are meant quite literally to go counter to everything a corporate environment pushes for.

    🤔 weird how that is, huh

    I guess my thesis, seperate from Laura’s, is that HR and these other teams need to let creatives be creatives.

    Then those teams have to be anticapitalist, by default.

    HR should be there for HR reasons, Legal should protect the company from liability, and marketers should market the product, but none of them (or the executives) should be swaying the creative process to make their jobs easier.

    Then you miscomprehend why executives hired all the above to sway the creatives to make their lives richer.

    It’s their jobs to protect the creative process, not the other way around.

    And this is the thesis, me, Velma, and other creatives have been saying for millennia: vanguards are class traitors. They only exist to protect “executives.” “Executives” created HR to vanguard their interests.

      You have a whole agenda that is unrelated to what I am talking about. I’m not playing into it. you’ve left 3 comments pushing your agenda and this will be my only response. Make your own post about this if you believe so and deeply care about it.

        Apparently you’re digressively victimizing your agendas, against mines, capitalists, Laura’s, Velma’s, and creatives. GL with whatever your agenda is not.

        Make your own post about this if you believe so and deeply care about it.

        Agenda accepted.
