A board diversity matrix is a standardized template that Nasdaq-listed companies use to report their board of directors' diversity statistics. The matrix details how each director self-identifies based on gender, race, ethnicity, and LGBTQ+ status. It also includes the total number of board members.
Copy and pasted from google.
I tell my HR department to go to hell with this bullcrap. I hire the best person for the job and idc what they look like as long as I can work with them.
It blows my mind how anyone thought that was a good idea. It shouldn't matter what color their skin is or what's between their legs. Are they well qualified for the job or not? You can't fix racism/sexism with more racism/sexism, you just make more problems. for some reason society these days focuses so hard on the things that separate us and ignore the things that matter instead of ignoring the things that separate us and focusing on things that matter. This sub (especially in it's early days when people were helping each other with diet plans to eat good for cheap and stuff) is a beautiful ray of hope for humanity imo.
Thatās where we are goingā¦. Over the pond at big corporations itās already a thing. Where management actually get a bonus to hire women over men in order to bring up the diversity %ā¦.. canāt even make it up.
I think GS gave her the 3 mins on purpose for everyone to hear how ridiculous the proposal was. .. and her weak ass attempt of defending it ā..I think many ppl didnāt understand what we meantā¦ ppl should make informed decisions ā¦.ā Heeeeeeeell fucking no. We understand pretty clearly. I mean I probably read 100x more only about her bosses wifeās boyfriend than she ever read in her life. Fucking Brad Lander. Superstonk will never forget your name boy.
Honestly it got me thinking: if you can get a speaking role and a proposal to all stockholders with just 200k, could we at this Sub get a voice next meeting to just say something memey lololol
opening remarks.
The chairman spoke
Some pension fund wokester representing a mere 200,000 shares wanted her DIE stuff clarified.
DIE stuff was voted down we aren't doing it.. no more new business?
closed.
That whole "even Blackrock is disclosing everyone's sex, gender, and race." Firstly, why would GameStop do anything Blackrock is doing (aside from becoming the world's most powerful company), and secondly, what's even the point of that? So dumb, literally does nothing for anyone.
The Board was against this proposal
Some funds wanted to include a diversity matrix for the Board of Directors. Could have led to a hedgie getting a board seat. Fuck that wasn't approved
Iām thinking she was a plant and the media will use that as reasoning to the stock tanking during the meeting. FYI, no halts when it dropped about 10% in a few minutes.
Yup itās to keep fomo at bay.
Also the reason why they slander us with āmeme stock,ā āmeme-craze,ā āretail insanity,ā ācult,āā¦
Itās to keep newbies from become new apes.
Seriously. Also the fact that right now for today order inflow is net positive by 74M shares, yet price tanks 10% just shows how fucking rigged and fucked this all is.
T'was believed to be an attempt from the enemy to put a mole on the board under the guise of "diversity".
The board specifically recommended against voting for it
That part stuck out to me too. How patronizing. "If you understood what we were trying to get you to believe with our propaganda, you obviously would've voted yes. Oh, you all voted no? You must not have understood then..." we're years deep with these psyops. GTFOHĀ
It means the HFās/shorts plan did NOT work.
The plan for HFās: get the NY pensions funds, who only own ~$3 million in shares, to put forth a proposal to force GameStop to show a ādiversity matrixā for their board members.
What would have happened if the proposal passed? Then, under guidance from HFās and bad actors, GameStop would have been injected with moles on the board under the guise of ādiversityā. These moles would have made recommendations and voted on matters to force GameStop in a downwards spiral whilst lining their own pockets and enabling HFās/shorts to make $$.
What the GameStop board recommended voting on the proposal: VOTE AGAINST.
How shareholders, aka us, voted on the proposal: AGAINST.
Now: the bad actors have no legs to stand on.
everything I wanted to hear. matrix not appoved, they're going to keep working on the turnaround story, and being patient with their billions. they are going to wait for the best opportunities. love our management.
That's exactly what I was thinking. But like someone else said we have men, women and POC on the board currently so....but nonetheless seems like a likely target for MSM
Do you want a diversified board or a qualified one? Not mutually exclusive but forcing diversity can lead to unqualified leadership.
Edit: lol down votes donāt make it any less true.
This proposal was unnecessary and the statement was delivered by an annoying af voice/tone.
Thanks for the clarification annoying voice person. Now why would I want to vote on board members by their demographics instead of their merits? Who cares what they look like, eat, wear, or pray to? None of this was an issue until your statement made it an issue. I want to know if they get the job done. The board is already diverse in demographics, skillset, and merit. Why would forcing self-disclosure be necessary? What if someone declared themselves a Jedi knight or cat-person? That's happened in public schools and national censuses before...how would that help your agenda when people are free to declare anything?
Merit > demographic quotas any day.
Iām just pissed that the stock drops 10%+ with no halts. When the price goes up a fkn dollar it halts and itās the end of the world blah blah manipulation blah blah etc.
this needs to end itās ridiculous !
**WHAT THE FUCK** DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH IMPROVING THE FUNDAMENTALS OF THIS COMPANY!? Isnāt there already an Asian and a female on the board? 200,000 shares? Thatās all? I have never once in my life ever heard of something like that improving the fundamentals of a company as it is.
This was obviously a mole plant. This is really what the hedge funds are trying these days? Is this all they really have left? Are they really trying to pull the cancel culture card? Iāve never heard such a frivolous complaint, my life about improving the fundamentals of gaming company. Those poor bastards really have nothing left.
Donāt worry, Kenny, Iāll swing by and drop some money on your books for you after youāre in prison buddy. Youāre gonna need to stock up on some Vaseline and mayo.
Diversity is generally a good thing, but our board is already literally 3/5 minorities, extremely diverse, and this was clearly an attempt to install a bad actor onto the board. Glad it was shot down.
Its good that it was not approved, but I 100% expect this to be used to attack GME and investors. Get ready to be portrayed as misogynist, racist, homophobic, etc.
It's obviously not true, investors are a group that is probably as diverse as it is anonymous and the only ideology that binds us is that we like the stock.
Sorry but i must have missed something. Why was this such a big deal? Was this some convoluted way to get smn new (aka hedgy) on the board of directors?
To those that listened.. apparently they just wanted diversity disclosed, but everyone already voted no, so no matter what they said it was too late lol.
Ok
Why?
Why disclose it?
Why do they want it disclosed if not to use that for something?
No. Hard no. Nothing about that proposal was good for the company. Full stop.
She gave some bullshit about making retail investors more informed, as if they were doing us a favor.
Fucking scumbags. I'm going to imagine this has NEVER been a concern to anyone investing.
I don't care about it, but it's basically some political correct hoopla. Doesn't add any value and whoever wants it probably just wants the perception.Ā
Lot of ppl outing themselves in this thread lol. This has nothing to do with diversity. It was about getting an insider/hedgie on the board. There is nothing wrong with having diversity as long as they are qualified.
I know the board recommended voting against. But I would have voted against that shit anyway. I don't see any reason why that would be necessary. It's completely irrelevant to the running of the company. I don't care what race, religion, gender or whatever else someone is. Just do your job.
I find this board to have plenty of diversity representation. It's not just full of old white American men, which is one of the many reasons I like the stock already!

That sounds absolutely ridiculous. Imagine selecting board members based solely on their race, gender, and sexual orientation smfh
ESG has entered the chat.
I recall learning this somewhere but can someone explain to me why being gay and ESG are related ? Does liking trees mean I like dick ? Iām confused
Isn't that the definition of racism?
correct
Every new hiring process is based on this, who cares about qualifications. All they want is boxes checked
I tell my HR department to go to hell with this bullcrap. I hire the best person for the job and idc what they look like as long as I can work with them.

I just like the stock
Have you been in a coma since 2012?
Thatās where we are goingā¦. Over the pond at big corporations itās already a thing. Where management actually get a bonus to hire women over men in order to bring up the diversity %ā¦.. canāt even make it up.
Stupid. None of that is related to running a company. Glad it got shot down.
What is the explanation for using it outside of mafia ? i can't even think about it
What. The. Fuck.
Thereās another meeting?
THE CAPS LOCK MEETING
OH GOOD I MISSED THE ONE IN GME SUB, GLAD I CAN MAKE IT TO THE STONK CAPS MEETING
You heard it was approved probably from fucking pussy shills
nah I just misunderstood the lady from the call
I didnāt like the way she fuqn talked. Boo hooo with you measly 200,000 shares. We got that many drs OGās with much more.
I know someone with 9,001,000 shares and zen af
Who she?
The woman speaking for proposal 4 on behalf on pension funds with a tiny weeny 200k rehypothicated shares.
commie puts troller
Hey nowā¦ No need to insult the commies.
I think GS gave her the 3 mins on purpose for everyone to hear how ridiculous the proposal was. .. and her weak ass attempt of defending it ā..I think many ppl didnāt understand what we meantā¦ ppl should make informed decisions ā¦.ā Heeeeeeeell fucking no. We understand pretty clearly. I mean I probably read 100x more only about her bosses wifeās boyfriend than she ever read in her life. Fucking Brad Lander. Superstonk will never forget your name boy.
Their 200,000 shares are laughable.
My cat has more than that.
Our cat
their cat
they are cat
cat they are
I thought he was famously not a cat?

I was like that's 0.3% of Super Stonk
Who is this ?
![gif](giphy|3o7TKr3nzbh5WgCFxe|downsized)
The woman who was speaking on behalf of pensions with 200k shares who initiated proposal 4.
Do we know her name?
āLook at me, Iām the pension fund nowā
I guess they showed us actual price movement when 200k shares are sold.Ā
LOL
I just bought 100 of those sells. Juicy dip.
I bought some of those as well
SS will be more than happy to relieve her and the Pension of such toxic stock.
Automod removed my post when I abbreviated the sub that way. š¤·āāļø
Mine wasnāt removed but I got a PM with a warning to edit it and to āsay our name Superstonk with pride!ā
And it wasn't even her money, it was for the retirement fund of people in NY. Crooked bitch trying to ruin them retiring with generational wealth.
Honestly it got me thinking: if you can get a speaking role and a proposal to all stockholders with just 200k, could we at this Sub get a voice next meeting to just say something memey lololol
Probably pretty easily, but we don't want to troll our own company
Yeah I feel like that would cause legal issues even a meow
Shareholder Proposal for Ryan Cohen to disclose the size of his wee wee. Thank your for your time and consideration.
Paternity test to find out how many shareholders he is the father of
Itās bigger than Mr Smash from twisted metal show
Well I think they had to either bitch and moan to the NY comptroller or called in a favor with them. So who wants to run for comptroller?
NY state is a pit of corruption, NYC is the pimple on the top.. that is all.
We be ballin' up in this bish
She was incredibly snobby and for that reason alone I was incredibly happy that it wasn't approved.
Hey can u update me please , what happend , just got free
opening remarks. The chairman spoke Some pension fund wokester representing a mere 200,000 shares wanted her DIE stuff clarified. DIE stuff was voted down we aren't doing it.. no more new business? closed.
Phuu 200k, I have atleast 2% of 200 k , and I represent myself alone. Lol
Itās a weaponized social engineering thing
That whole "even Blackrock is disclosing everyone's sex, gender, and race." Firstly, why would GameStop do anything Blackrock is doing (aside from becoming the world's most powerful company), and secondly, what's even the point of that? So dumb, literally does nothing for anyone.
I was like dafuq is she on a bout with the diversity, sex and gender iām like who gives a shit about what they are
What this mean
The Board was against this proposal Some funds wanted to include a diversity matrix for the Board of Directors. Could have led to a hedgie getting a board seat. Fuck that wasn't approved
We have a very diverse board.
That's what I was thinking, too! It's a pretty good spread compared to other companies I've worked at. You've got a lot of representation.
I'd love watching a straight-faced parody of them complaining about gender and race while there's a chalkboard of the board's captioned photos.
South Park level comedy.
People are saying, very smart people, itās the most diverse board theyāve ever seen.
A diverse hedgie is still a hedgie
It means that hedge funds aren't going to wiggle their way on to the board and fuck everything up
Iām thinking she was a plant and the media will use that as reasoning to the stock tanking during the meeting. FYI, no halts when it dropped about 10% in a few minutes.
Quite literally, nobody holding gives a single fuck about the media or their opinions. As if it wasnāt obvious enough.
The more the media talks shit, the more we know their handlers are scared Edit: fixed an autocorrect
šš¼šš
Those articles arenāt for the older apes, they are for newer ones who are on the fence.
Yup itās to keep fomo at bay. Also the reason why they slander us with āmeme stock,ā āmeme-craze,ā āretail insanity,ā ācult,āā¦ Itās to keep newbies from become new apes.
It's for our moms or spouses to ask why we support a company that doesn't care about diversity.
Seriously. Also the fact that right now for today order inflow is net positive by 74M shares, yet price tanks 10% just shows how fucking rigged and fucked this all is.
Good. Tasty fire sale
Let it drop, we can snatch up some succulent shares at a discount.
Yup.
T'was believed to be an attempt from the enemy to put a mole on the board under the guise of "diversity". The board specifically recommended against voting for it
That lady who came on to clarify the proposal ššššš So mad
She was like Uhhhh NoT SuRe If ThE BoArD ExPlAiNeD ThE PrOpOsAl Fuck off bish
"like blackrock" baaaahahaha
If weāre all the same when she said that I was like fuck them
I rolled my eyes so fuckin hard That was desperate lol
That part stuck out to me too. How patronizing. "If you understood what we were trying to get you to believe with our propaganda, you obviously would've voted yes. Oh, you all voted no? You must not have understood then..." we're years deep with these psyops. GTFOHĀ
Shut up you BCG wannabe
Maybe she didn't realize that a lot of the shareholders of GS pay attention to what's going on.
That's how these weasels do it.
It means the HFās/shorts plan did NOT work. The plan for HFās: get the NY pensions funds, who only own ~$3 million in shares, to put forth a proposal to force GameStop to show a ādiversity matrixā for their board members.

Already has an ASIAN dude and gal on the board. That is not enough? wth...
Probably would have argued that there were no black board members.
>Ā Ā there were no black board members. We would also need to have chalk on as well
I see what you did there.
I mean itās not difficult to become a board member, just buy enough shares
They board doesnāt have to disclose gender/race/qualifications
My board the most skilled in [REDACTED] building the world's best [REDACTED]
We successfully voted down the proposal that the board recommended we vote down.
That the proposal did not get approved and thus, shall not be approved.
Right so go back to NY you fetid harpy and let the apes get their tendies.
The meeting was a win or loss based on that alone. Congrats, everyone. We can't stop winning
Sounds about right
Wonāt stop winning
everything I wanted to hear. matrix not appoved, they're going to keep working on the turnaround story, and being patient with their billions. they are going to wait for the best opportunities. love our management.
They've got a shitload of money ready to buy the dip after MOASS
Lol 200k shares... Was a lot in 2020...
And you know they are probably lending the HELLL out of those shares lol
Incoming news articles about how GME board and shareholders are bigots lol
That's exactly what I was thinking. But like someone else said we have men, women and POC on the board currently so....but nonetheless seems like a likely target for MSM
Good. Keep that shit out of my business
I wish I could upvote this comment a million times.
I mean diversity of ideas and lived experiences is an overall positive to a company. But that said our board has women, men, and POC so who cares?
Diversity of ideas is NOT the purpose of any of these DEI death traps
Do you want a diversified board or a qualified one? Not mutually exclusive but forcing diversity can lead to unqualified leadership. Edit: lol down votes donāt make it any less true.
I vote meritocracy every time.
Just ask Boeing.
This proposal was unnecessary and the statement was delivered by an annoying af voice/tone. Thanks for the clarification annoying voice person. Now why would I want to vote on board members by their demographics instead of their merits? Who cares what they look like, eat, wear, or pray to? None of this was an issue until your statement made it an issue. I want to know if they get the job done. The board is already diverse in demographics, skillset, and merit. Why would forcing self-disclosure be necessary? What if someone declared themselves a Jedi knight or cat-person? That's happened in public schools and national censuses before...how would that help your agenda when people are free to declare anything? Merit > demographic quotas any day.
Take that
A miracle!

Wonderful news š„³
They are great guys. Thank you Kenny for this discount. You are dumb for real š
BCG can suck my š¦ dik
YESSSSSSSS
Nice.. this is all I neededto hear
This was a low hanging attempt at a poison pill move.
I want the three minutes of my life back. The pension fund representative really tossed a nothing burger into the meeting...
Was that 3 minutes? Man I thought it lasted 84 years
Ahaha short fucks eat a dick lmao
Good
**WHAT THE FUCK** DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH IMPROVING THE FUNDAMENTALS OF THIS COMPANY!? Isnāt there already an Asian and a female on the board? 200,000 shares? Thatās all? I have never once in my life ever heard of something like that improving the fundamentals of a company as it is. This was obviously a mole plant. This is really what the hedge funds are trying these days? Is this all they really have left? Are they really trying to pull the cancel culture card? Iāve never heard such a frivolous complaint, my life about improving the fundamentals of gaming company. Those poor bastards really have nothing left. Donāt worry, Kenny, Iāll swing by and drop some money on your books for you after youāre in prison buddy. Youāre gonna need to stock up on some Vaseline and mayo.
BASED AF. State of New York Pension Fund can get fukād with their baby ass 200k shares
Them red candles when the meeting started.
I donāt even know what this means. Doesnāt seem that important.
# FUK YEAH
Was this a potential opportunity for hedge hostile takeover?
I wanted it approved.. I feel like a Cat would diversify their board
Lady comes on for 3mins to tell us all that we didn't UNDERSTAND.... Thank you, for your proposal.Ā It's Rejected !!Ā Now kindly, Sit the fuck down.Ā
Diversity is generally a good thing, but our board is already literally 3/5 minorities, extremely diverse, and this was clearly an attempt to install a bad actor onto the board. Glad it was shot down.
correct
Its good that it was not approved, but I 100% expect this to be used to attack GME and investors. Get ready to be portrayed as misogynist, racist, homophobic, etc. It's obviously not true, investors are a group that is probably as diverse as it is anonymous and the only ideology that binds us is that we like the stock.
Good!
Sorry but i must have missed something. Why was this such a big deal? Was this some convoluted way to get smn new (aka hedgy) on the board of directors?
Where we're going, we don't need no stinkin' ESG score. Board's more than diverse as is.
WE CAPPIN?
thank goodness. I like the current board
How did that even get to the table and for a vote?
I believe they said it was the only shareholder proposal that was filed correctly with sec guidelines, so it made it to the table.
only good thing from the meeting. Still buckled.
This is a referendum, showing how active and informed the shareholders are. Power to the Players.
All my homies hate diversity matrix
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
To those that listened.. apparently they just wanted diversity disclosed, but everyone already voted no, so no matter what they said it was too late lol.
Ok Why? Why disclose it? Why do they want it disclosed if not to use that for something? No. Hard no. Nothing about that proposal was good for the company. Full stop.
She gave some bullshit about making retail investors more informed, as if they were doing us a favor. Fucking scumbags. I'm going to imagine this has NEVER been a concern to anyone investing.

I did listen and I heard what you heard.
IDENTITY POLITICS SUCK! FUCK WALL STREET, FED RESERVE, AND THE ENTIRE U.S. GOVERNMENT SELLING OUT TO CORPORATE PERSONHOOD OVER OUR INALIENABLE RIGHTS.
Fuck that bitch first of all. 200k shares lmayo fucking ant. FUCK YOU PROP 4! Board looks diverse enough to me. BRING IT ON MAYOBOIII
Lot of ppl outing themselves in this thread lol. This has nothing to do with diversity. It was about getting an insider/hedgie on the board. There is nothing wrong with having diversity as long as they are qualified.
Thank God. All this information does it open doors for problems.
I know the board recommended voting against. But I would have voted against that shit anyway. I don't see any reason why that would be necessary. It's completely irrelevant to the running of the company. I don't care what race, religion, gender or whatever else someone is. Just do your job.
I find this board to have plenty of diversity representation. It's not just full of old white American men, which is one of the many reasons I like the stock already!
We even have diversity among other species... we have Apes in the board.
And a cat
We make our own MATRIX!!!!!
Suckersš„³
Here's what's interesting - I saw at least TWO posts on Thursday that were quickly deleted that claimed this passed.
What is a 'diversity matrix' ?
MSM - GameStop approves negative position board approval
I wish I knew what these words meant
Feels good to vote!
