Polygon reports that hundreds of players are raising funds for charitable group Black Girls Code while participating in a sit-in protest in one of WoW’s large social hubs
I now believe the accusations are about merit requirements and are false.
Any reason to believe the accusations are the least bit real?

I'm skeptical for a few reasons:
- Presumption of innocence. Allegations aren't proof, just cause to investigate.
- For cases where crimes were allegedly committed (e.g. sexual assault), where are the police reports? I don't believe allegations of violent crimes where no police were called.
- For allegations of discrimination based on sex (e.g. not promoting women who were AWOL on maternity leave), I don't believe them. If you're not at work, eff off with claims of "discrimination".
- For allegations of people drinking and playing video games at work, and some women getting their feels hurt by this workplace norm, either adapt to the workplace culture or leave for someplace more straight-laced.
- For allegations of work being dumped on women instead of men, I don't see any way to prove that one way or another. Ergo it can be discarded.
- For allegations of sexual comments at work...if you put a bunch of dude bros in a workplace together, they're going to make sexual remarks at each other and no one gets their feels hurt. Just adding women and suddenly hurt feels doesn't hold water with me
- If there are allegations of bona fide unlawful conduct such as. "blow me or you won't get a promotion", it's certainly worth investigating...but presumption of innocence.

I have not read it yet. But apparently someone that participated at the Cosby suite leaked it.
