This is very much something on the same level as TikTok's new management. There's a very intentional targeting going on here.

A few years ago, I said that videogames' chats (including on discord) were one of the safest places on Earth to organize, because filters usually care about sex and profanity, not politics. They're also by their very nature quite ephemeral, in particular voice chats. Clearly I'm not the only one who noticed.

Setting aside the fact that this is a franchise that historically has been relatively good to a number of minorities (LGBT, PoCs, non-Christian religions...) rarely represented in most AAA videogames, and that you can kiss that kind of representation goodbye, it's going to be a proper f*cking nightmare. JARED KUSHNER.

Get the f*ck out of this franchise. No life simulation is worth risking your actual life.

Think about what you do in your saves, who you recreate, what mods you install (...you know who you are), what comments you leave, what kind of lots you get from the Gallery...

Once the next Sims projects are live, think about who you're going to be in multiplayer with, what you're going to say in chat, what data will be accessed on your phone, what personal photos of loved ones and/or real life places you're going to upload to create a family member or the couch in your living room...

The sale is confirmed, I don't know about you but I'm uninstalling the EA app.
