What did Russell do that is any where near comparable to Manziel except play badly on the field?

They have their own movie industry including their own art-house scene.

We did the same to become an economic powerhouse. Their just following our lead.

That’s how Americans talk so what’s the big deal? What’s wrong with him being proud of his people?

Um, where is the contradiction? So he can’t be passionate about his own nation and be named in the Panama papers for whatever reason?

Why the f- would he be loyal to the West over his own nation? And Hong Kong is a part of China. People from Hong Kong are Chinese. Why shouldn’t be he proud of his people? What does this have to do with the Chinese govt?

What made it cringeworthy?

Looks fun! I’m still trying to figure out what is “bad” about the dialogue. It’s a video game and the characters didn’t talk much different than a typical conversation between young urbanites.

“Thug”? What makes the protagonists a thug?

Far fetched? How is that a problem? Do you play video games?

Who would want to play a game about actual software developers? And this game is about hackers not people who have regular jobs. Like, sheesh, it’s a tech-fantasy just let it flow.

There is no such thing as a “generic black guy” in video games.

If you seriously think he spits gibberish than either 1.) You don’t speak/understand English 2.) Have never listened to him. Please give it a rest.

It is ours, we created it to help us get through this racist ass…

Everyone has a culture, what are you sucking on?

They sound black because they want to sound black. It’s purposeful and they are absolutely copying.

Last I checked Irish-Americans are Celtic. And in a segregated and racist society it’s BORROWING/ TAKING plain and simple. You can appropriate styles created in response to oppression and act like it’s just an “influence”. Like it’s in the ether and you can’t help but to “use” it.

One more thing. Em could never, ever do an album like Ghostfaces “12 reasons to die”. He doesn’t have the narrative skill. Yet, Em will win another grammy before that album because most critics are white. And how could I forget Ras Kass and Saafir!? Lol! It kills me that people think Em is one of the best. Best…

Well, I was being snarky. I live in the heart of Chicago and have peace and tranquility everyday because big cities are hardly the image that bumpkins like you have your head. The only time it gets crazy around here is around July 4th. Whatever, I grew up in a mid sized midwestern “city”. I will never go back. It’s…
