With Netflix dropping to nearly a quarter of its maximum price from 6 months ago, something had to give. First they came for the trains, then they came for other train-related employees, then they came for the woke cartoons (ohhhhhh, hoo boy - yep)
And now they're going scorched Earth in general, as they cut 70 animation studios, 60-70 social media roles and lay off 150 employees.
But all is not sweet bird-song in Twitter land and many tweeple are NOT happy:
Our Netflix film was laid off today and had a crew of 90% women with a wide range of diversities and perspectives.
I’m so sorry Amanda. :( they can’t keep doing this. god…
For real 😤 the amount of people laid off and the time span of it happening needs to be regulated or something, Because now we have a bunch of talented folks all looking for the same job all at once with only a few weeks of pay to live on.
If only there was something people could do when they have income to prepare for times when they don’t have income. Like some sort of reverse layaway for money.
Followed by the usual cliched "Learn to code" and "Get back to the Kitchen" replies along with countless others after that.
From here: https://twitter.com/starbyter/status/1527221406844325888):
Netflix cut all of its diversity departments including Strong Black Lead, Asian American-focused Golden, Latinx-focused Con Todo, and LGBTQ-focused Most
@starbyter said:
Unfortunately, cannot say I'm at all surprised 😕 I remember ppl voicing concerns about diversity hires being done just for show, for brownie points to look good in the face of black tragedy; and how they were suspicious about its legitimacy. Low and behold, they were right
Yep, I was one of them. As a Latinx and bisexual, I'm not happy, I'm mad that we were proven right in the end.
Some trolls come out to play: 
I mean what did y’all expect getting hired for the look and not for your skills
They think they should be hired to make crap content and be activists all day
....is swiftly met by @starbyter's response:
Silence racists, my replies aren't a place for you to be used pieces of tissue. BEGONE
...with the rejoinder:
I agree we should silence racists. This Netflix purge is a good start.

the thing is they had to have already known this and went full woke anyway. If they didn't do this or ended it when it was obvious to anyone who isn't a full blown leftoid that it wasn't popular they would not be in the situation they currently find themselves in. What the frick were they thinking

You considered it woke? They seemed pretty critical of blacks being hyperemotional during tragedy and their unwillingness to accept it was one their own killing their children.

They thought it was a white guy because serial killings had mostly been done by white men at that time. The women's grief was exacerbated because just like the irl case, police weren't really that serious about solving missing persons cases of black teens.

It seemed to me she was portrayed as someone who was blinded by racism and desperately trying to find a solution to her child's murder? I thought it was a good story and wokeness didn't really factor into it.

You'd have to be goddarn r-slurred to think that Netflix was wasting money on the 90% female film staff.
Here's why it was a good idea:
only foids are sitting around watching the bottom of the barrel trash they pump out at Netflix. Foids making content for foids just makes sense.
foids are the only ones dumb enough to get a degree in drawing shit. If you're paying for art, I really am going to pay a person who has art training.
You don't bet against $BECKY. Yeah, Starbucks is r-slurred to buy because you could just buy a coffeemaker and a pound of beans for the same cost as two trips to Starbucks, but somehow it rakes in billions of dollars a year from dumbasses who can't operate a fricking spoon, a faucet, or the single "on" button. You don't even need to clean your coffeepot more than once a week, so there's literally no excuse, but somehow foids manage to spend thousands of dollars a year on literally the easiest thing to prepare in the morning. $BECKY finds a way, and you're gonna get wiped out if you think with your head instead of your ovaries and do something r-slurred like short Lululemon.
Also, I haven't seen a decent romance anime in like 5 years, and the actually good shoujo animes stopped airing at least 5 years before that. I can watch 1000 isekai harems every season but Japan can't fricking get its shit together to throw the foids a single fricking scrap for ONE season. If Netflix managed to pull it off, I'd probably watch a western shoujo, as long as every character wasn't a deranged b-word that you would never want to hang out with in real life (which is what every western TV show for women has been for the last 15 years). That's a big if, but someday it's gonna happen.

It doesn't matter who runs them, it matters who fills up the bottom and mid-tiers. People are bitching about animators and tweeners getting laid off at Netflix animation studios, and those low-level pen-holders being 90% women. What I'm saying is you'd have a bigger fricking problem if you couldn't manage to fill those ranks with low-paid disposable women with Mrs. degrees who do free marketing every time they take a selfie. I'm not saying that the person pulling the strings at the top is a foid.
