While the copy is dumb, I'm kind of glad they didn't do a mea culpa and yank the packaging and wear a hairshirt for thirty days. If they want to be dumb, at least own it.
I would say that a multinational corporation insisting its employees talk about race is a much more cynical tactic, as it assumes by pandering to the current topic du jour that a victory lap is in order. The fact it blew up in their face is proof positive that people are tried of being lectured to, or tired of brands taking a stand and are recognizing that being PC is as much a cynical marketing tactic as being un-PC.
And I would say if an artist visits your site and reads your terms of service it suggests the exact opposite of what you are saying here. Perhaps you should update your site accordingly? You know, kind of the way Spotify and Pandora and Google Play have done. This is doubly true of unsigned artists who don't have big label leverage. Do you see how a lack of transparency causes this issue?
It may be hard to believe but after extensive research I've found no articles in which you discuss this. If you'd care to furnish some articles for us or go into more detail about your royalty rates, I'll be more than happy to update this article.
FYI It's not a conspiracy to read your terms of service as written and conclude it's not a good deal.
"is in no way about making things FOR Misha" it is about meeting new people, being creative, talking to new people, bringing people together, learning new things and skills, and working together." Sounds amazing and vague. And the list is so long and amazing I couldn't POSSIBLY understand it, because only Misha and his followers could. Tell that to the sci-fi authors who felt violated because people like you wouldn't leave them alone.
It's not a charity as you say, but it's FOR a charity but not a charity anyone can actually prove, because it's not ACTUALLY a registered charity, sorry to break it to you. You're believing what is told to you, or what you read on a website, but you actually have to register that shit with the government. Don't believe everything you read because it isn't necessarily true.
So let's all have a slow clap for the cult members who don't read or understand articles. I'm not even going to bother clarifying further. But I will say, I have yet to see any amazing changes you're speaking of. Last time I checked the world is still a disturbing place. Trying to get an established sci-fi author to give up their work for free for your garbage list hasn't changed it.
