I am calling on @ZenobiaAward to renounce @IonGameDesign as a sponsor. Ion are known publishers of anti-Semitic, pro-colonial, anti-eastern hate speech in their games. These views are in sharp contrast with the wonderful goals and mission of @ZenobiaAward 1/3
Ion’s latest response is to have academic responses to their hate speech in their rule books. Not only does this give them a pass to continue printing hate speech, it also gives hate equal footing to serious viewpoints. Incredibly misguided. 2/3
I am sure we can find many individuals, myself included, who would contribute financially to more than make up for any compensation lost by renouncing the sponsorship. I already checked the site and couldn’t find a way to donate. 3/3
