According to your "sources" everything the person who was actually there and reported did not happen?
Holy Batman, Batman!
Whistleblower
The training was led by Conscious Kid co-founder Kate Ishizuka-Stephens. Johnson says it was mandatory, but Hasbro maintains it was an 'optional diversity and inclusion webinar attended by a small group of employees.'
Hasbro: "We occasionally invite third-party speakers for optional sessions to discuss diverse viewpoints. As always, the views expressed by external speakers are their own and do not reflect the views of the company.'
"Johnson did not share any concerns with his employer [Hasbro] before going to the Project Veritas, and that it had no part in The Conscious Kid's lectures."
Not sure what smoking gun you are trying to find here and to what end.
The only thing I have to question is if the material he viewed does not reflect the views of the company, then why the heck are they making people watch it? I highly, highly doubt that they pay for this 'training', but allow people to opt out of watching it. Then what's the point of paying for it? Why push any subjective agenda if it has no bearing on the company? This isn't some dialectic debate at some academic institution, it's a place of business.
So we have a guy who actually worked for them and says it was mandatory, but now Hasbro realises the hot water they are jumping into and states it was optional viewing. Did he know this? Likely not, and as he stated, "...It was a meeting he was told he needed to attend at work."
Maybe he was actually interested in hearing more about the topic and became vehemently opposed to the way the material was structured and the assumptions it was making. It really doesn't matter as it has no business being pushed in the first place unless there was some counterargument seminar to balance it, which there seems very little evidence of.
Reality check here: a black guy went against the grain, has been put on suspension (might as well stick it on the CV as everyone will know about it now), seemingly opposed his parents views and will be vilified for having a different opinion. I can't imagine any scenario where he had some agenda to plan all this. The only silver lining in the end is a fund to help him as he has tanked his career. There are no real positives here: just someone who was strong enough to say no, I don't agree with this (for reasons he stated) and it is wrong to push these controversial cultural manifestos in a place of business. Guess he thought it was worth enough to make the public aware as he's going to feel the effects of this bold move for years to come.
Hasbro's big problem is he didn't tell them he disagreed. Oh, I'm sorry Hasbro, as you seem to be willing to show anything to employees that do not reflect your views, maybe you could have shown a Peterson video or two instead as you don't seem to care what is thrown your employees' way. Of course that wouldn't go with the current trend would it? So it is a cognitive decision the company is making you hypocrites.
Oh, and to keep it on topic: OSR yay, Hasbro/WOtC nay!
