That equivalency between the alt-right and “liberals” isn’t as equivalent as you think it is.

Centrist here, but a very much a black, Gay liberal. I’ll take issue with one area of your response: moralistic inferiority.
I do think there are certain beliefs which put a person in a place of moralistic inferiority. If you’re racist, I don’t think you can argue that you aren’t morally inferior. If you’re homophobic,…
I apologize beforehand for talking politics here but this can’t be allowed to grow any more with ill timed poorly researched games like this one.
It’s funny, because ding dongs have been complaining in the comments for years about these kinds of articles at Kotaku. I’m struggling to believe you actually read any of the articles that came out in the last ten years here.
Don’t like it? Move on. Simple!
It’s funny because, like, 95 percent of what conservatives in the US call “far left” isn’t that left. It’s just that the far right is so far right that anything more centrist or left of center seems to be radically progressive.
“Are game devs just completely tone deaf or are they doing this on purpose?”
This article isn’t about the game and the role Bezmenov plays in it.
Covering and critiquing a piece of media isn’t the same as promoting it.
This is an article about the advertisement for the game.
I... I think you misunderstood Animal Farm or you are misunderstanding this article. Either way, maybe it is time to brush up on those reading skills.
Haha WHAT? Did you just mention 3 extremely opinionated, morally convicted, empathetic, and socially conscious people to try to make a nasty point? Fail.
People in middle school read Animal Farm, you fucking dipshit. Also, how the fuck is a video game journalism outlet posturing as “The Pigs” compared to a multibillion dollar video game corporation? The writer literally suggests that the theory is problematic given its context, which includes how it was used by Nazi-sal…
Ian literally quoted a far right conspiracy theorist who was talking about how happy this footage was in the trailer. It’s... not even close to a stretch, y’know?
Didn’t take long for the dipshits to appear complaining about this article being “political” when it’s commenting on a game that is deliberately portraying cold war politics for fun.
This literally is a far right conspiracy theory. Whether you believe it’s appropriate to feature it in a video game’s marketing is a another thing but nothing is being turned into anything.
Hey look another dingus who didn’t read the article and/or has no idea what politics are. Go back to your baby army game.
No, HIV Denialism and alt-right nationalism is far right. And you’re a far right apologist, if not supporter. A terribly transparent one at that.
This is so on the button. I’m an attorney, Epic breached first and then (more or less) is saying the contract was so unfair they were forced to breach.
That almost NEVER goes well for the party that breaches, and trust me when I say that neither Epic nor Apple want the federal anti-monopoly guys sniffing around their…
recruiting their impressionable 14 year old fans to become online warriors for their billion dollar company is so. fucking. gross.
Gamers are eager marks when it comes to corporate pissing matches. Epic may as well take advantage of it.
