coming from the group that decided to move to blusky cuz twitter already figured out how bs the strike is with hoyo. congrats y'all got the echo chamber y'all wanted where everyone's stupid enough to believe every word without a second thought

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 21

"yet you guys are refusing to believe" cuz they were caught lying before, but ig even videos actually going over that shit isn't enough for the few GI players still lacking media literacy, like actually believing there's no contracts behind it all is so 🥀

even so, the protections are already in place, both by law and the agency's terms and contracts, and still miHoYo was never a target.
with all the shit that happened one can only assume they're only doing it for power at this point, look at Corina, still working despite bashing on everyone lmao

only in AI negotiations, they worded it clearly when clarifying the situation, they never said they supported the strike altogether

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 21

if it doesn't end up applying to foreign workers, what about the studio that's seeking out these VAs? the VAs are signing these contracts with Sound Cadence (based in USA), mihoyo hired em for that, and when the whole VA mess was happening they stated their contracts have AI protections

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 21

miHoYo is the one that develops these games, it's based in China, and they have to abide by the AI law that forbids them from creating it. Hoyoverse is based in Singapore, and they're the GLOBAL GAME PUBLISHERS- NOT DEVS- so their games have a worldwide reach.

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 21

Chinese laws SHOULD be put in place, after all, the name behind it all is still miHoYo, Hoyoverse is the global game publisher. why would it not apply to foreign workers if the one they're working for is based in China?

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 21

and yet they're trying to fight against a company... that already has these protections set in stone, because they HAVE to in China, and Hoyo has an agency seeking out these VAs who have these protections as well.

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 21

this argument falls apart the moment you realize SAG-AFTRA's official account retweeted a post by one of their actors, and literally tagging Hoyo's 3 biggest games. and once again, if they're trying to negotiate against the use of AI why did they make a deal with an AI company?

1

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 21

these are the only parties being striked, I don't see Hoyoverse's name in it. yeah y'know what else unions can do? get too big to the point they want more benefits than they should and grow corrupt. besides, didn't SAG-AFTRA signed a deal with an AI company? the thing they're striking against?

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 21

bro talking so confidently, but when confronted he goes to hide by blocking, ain't no way

y'all truly don't know what you're talking about lmao

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 21

calling me the child when it's you pussying out by blocking, I wonder why...

probably cuz you and op don't really know what y'all are talking about

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 21

debunked by who? I ain't here nothin

I HAVE heard the shit that actually goes down with the strike's agreement, THAT I know people have at least gone over, and if you still deny it without a second thought you should reconsider if the things you say to others also apply to you </3

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 21

bitch I ain't talking to you

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 21

blocked without letting me say anything back, eh? blusky truly is the place to cultivate the TRUE echo chambers, no wonder most of the strike defenders are all in here

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 21

- have yet to be shown where they used AI
- china already has laws that prohibit them to make and use AI
- hoyo was never a target
- actors and staff have proven to be incompetent assholes with what they did to Jacob and the emails sent to Erika (not to mention some went against their own rules)

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 21

sorry I don't wanna support a monopoly disguised as a union, not like some of the VAs even deserve respect anyway, considering the shit they did to Jacob and the threatening emails staff sent to Erika.
maturing is realizing the billion dollar company is in the right for once

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 20

and SAG-AFTRA should stop trying to go after someone who was never their target anyway, who already fulfill their needs

man, isn't it nice to see some organizers make the right decisions with these kinds of people? IF ONLY THE BIGGER CORPS ACTUALLY DID SO TOO

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 18

good ass run, good job, y'all will get em next time

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 17

they only do so till it starts actually affecting em and shit, other than that they don't care 🥺

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 17

they don't do shit until it starts truly affecting em, there's a reason mocha and harshi are NOW getting banned from a few tourneys now despite them being poopoo diaper babies for a while

YAGI @akaruiyagi.bsky.social · May 17

I find it so funny to see the "no lgbtq+ no exceptions" alongside "div 10"

yeah maybe there's a reason these bitches ain't making progress at all 😭

We would like to publicly announce that in light of recent and past events we have chosen to ban Harshi and Mocha / Liam indefinitely from all of our future tournaments. We do not usually make our bans public, but we felt that it was important to do so this time. (1/3)
