Because that’s how aerodynamics work. Without rear downforce on a FWD car, you could experience high-speed oversteer.

It looks like a Photoshop phriday “make a performance car” theme.

Since you’re the second person to mention it, let me respond: There’s nothing in saying “This article only exists for a click” that implies “And only dumb people would click on it.” If it exists for that very purpose, it’s probably tailor-made to get that response. I’m not saying consumers shouldn’t click on…

That’s not how this works. You are implicitly asking for an increasing amount of overhead to be built into everything ad infinitum to cover all those little contingencies of historical wrongdoing that might get referenced, however remotely. Something something all the disclaimers.

Booo! This is equivocation and obfuscation. I admire standing up for a fellow writer, but this is ridiculous.

Warrants discussion.......fascinating. Well alright discussion has been had. What now?

Yeah, this is what gets to me. I mean, if they were referencing a specific type of art that was only tied to racism, that’s different. But this art wasn’t inherently racist. It was just spawned in a time where society was far more openly racist than today.

I just think that aesthetically, given the fact that the game’s story is set in motion by reckless gambling, King Dice’s design works far better thematically (and though i didn’t get as far as fighting him yet, I’ll bet his actual battle supports his design as well). Not to mention that having an evil boss as the…

While I like that design for King Dice, I’m skeptical that a black character being a sleazy gambler and the right hand man of the devil would go over better considering the artstyle. And we both agree that retroactively changing anyone wouldn’t be a great idea.

How? Give an example.

NEWS BULLETIN:

Should everything ever that references something old have a disclaimer that says ‘in this era people were racist/sexist/etc’?

Also maybe watch Blues Brothers?

Dumb article that only exists for a click, which in turn references a dumb essay that itself only exists for a click.

“Hey guys, some people used this art/historical moment/idea for racist/sexist/etc. purposes, and it is wrong wrong wrong to reference the art/historical moment/idea without referencing (read:…

Obviously keeping the racist undertones would be bad. But not having them is also bad? Should everything ever that references something old have a disclaimer that says ‘in this era people were racist/sexist/etc’? Hell, considering how shitty people still are, even that could be considered whitewashing by suggesting…

“It’s not correct if it does not have this.” “But that is frown on by today’s world” “Then it is not TRUE era art.” ...I guess?

Not saying this to dispute the point of the article, but I’d wager the vast majority of people who like this animation have no idea it had racist associations. To them it’s a beautiful game with an old art style.
