A lot of men on Twitter are bullying the new CEO of Xbox just because she is an Indian woman.

Postby Netherrealmer » 22 Feb 2026, 00:55

A lot of people right now, mostly single men on their 30s and 40s, and probably 50s, are attacking the new CEO of Xbox just because she is a woman and just because she is Indian as well. They keep on making lies and speculation that she doesn't play video games, she knows nothing about gaming because she's a woman and because she's Indian. But based from her activity online, she does play video games, and she had been working for Microsoft for a long time. But people keep accusing her of things just because she is an Indian woman. Basically, they want the CEO to be a straight white male.

Basically, a lot of these men seems to be right-wing and hates women for some reason, and they accuse her of being a DEI hire-in. By the way, she never talked about politics. She just accepted the job. But they act like, you know, she's gonna make the gaming industry feminist or something.

It is sad to see reactions like that. I hope she does a great job and shows that she is more than capable of fulfilling the role successfully.

They have no idea that, you know, a lot of CEOs of video game companies never played video games and did well, but because she's a woman, they're attacking her.

Asha Sharma should just ignore these chauvinistic, sexist attacks.

Racism of a bad kind!
Any similar actions plus biases in terms of gender are deplorable.
These need timely actions.

That's bang out of order! I can't stand bigoted types who are easily offended by anything and everything :roll: Just because she's a woman of colour doesn't mean she's not capable of doing the job.
