YSK that despite being outside of US jurisdiction, Lego has dropped diversity and inclusion terminology from its annual report - Lemmy.World

I know some people are boycotting US businesses during the current administration, but the same mindset has ripple effects here in the EU. In other words: stay vigilant!

This sucks, my daughter just got into Lego. I guess it’s just another evil company I’ll be boycotting.

If my daughter wants more Lego, I’ll just buy it second hand

There are also great alternatives for LEGO compatible toy sets. Some of them are even higher quality than LEGO.

I haven’t built a lot of non LEGO sets but the Pantasy set I recently built was phenomenal. It was the retro computer I got as a gift.

Which ones? Mega Bloks make really nice designs, but the Lego bricks feel better to build with.
