Not sure it’s really fair to blame Chappelle for what parts of his act an infinite amount of clickbait articles choose to focus on.
Condescending on what hill people choose “to die on” is the weakest shit and means obviously you know they’re right and wish they weren’t so cavalier about it.
As someone who deals with massive approval chains that affect important things, things like this happen ALL the time.. Because the people responsible in those approval chains are also approving 800 other important things that are all being rushed out door to meet deadlines. Human pencil whipping is always going to…
Except the conversation - based on pressure from PR folks about timing (since it’s useless to release this in July) - could have easily gone:
You live a pretty cushy life if this is your standard for “abhorrent”. It was almost certainly a simple mistake. Not everything is racism. Jesus.
The issue is that totally ordinary people that make mistakes (you know, humans) tend to lose sympathy for people when none is extended to them. We each deserve grace... until we don’t (of course).
Here’s the distinction: The primary job of the vast majority of QA testers is to make sure that the game functions according to the game’s design and specifications.
Sorry, I don’t buy it dude.
It’s not like Bonoba is a household word.
Hey, you guys are the ones comparing apes to African Americans and getting angry about this kind of stuff. Sounds like you’re the racists to me.
I didn’t know that there was an endangered great ape species name Bonobo until I read this article.
This doesn’t seems like something, someone would know unless they specifically check for it or have seen it in a nature documentary. So, I think it is safe to assume that maybe QA saw it and just didn’t think it was…
My guess honestly is that the majority of the tech-focused individuals who do QA wouldn’t have any idea what a bonobo is (I certainly didn’t before this controversy) so they just didn’t realize it was an issue. If I was in QA and this passed by me, I’d see no issue with it, unless part of the QA process is getting the…
It’s also more evidence than the total LACK of evidence that Arya was gay. Asexual? I could see that based on, again, evidence. Arya never showed attraction to another woman. You might as well say that Arya had a sexual fetish for swords. Or murder. She really seemed to be into both!
Sounds like an honest mistake. A stupid, stupid, extremely unlucky and stupid mistake.
I’m betting a copy/paste that was put in the wrong place and never caught.
Hilarious. It’s pretty clear that making alcohol illegal isn’t a workable solution.
Personally, I thought it worked great to show a girl/woman can not conform to gender stereotypes without it automatically meaning she’s gay (see also, Brienne).
Yeah there’s a lot to complain about the final season, but, this seems like a total misreading of the character by Maisie.
I know you don’t do the headlines, but Latinx sounds like the adult parody of this movie. Is there something inappropriate about “Latin,” a word that already exists and is widely used?
