Are they equally quarantining videos with people saying really racist stuff about white people? Or does Google’s bias prevent them from acknowledging that white people are human beings that deserve the same protections as all other minorities?

If you have a problem with it, then don’t let your kids go online until they are mature enough to handle the internet. Or at the very least, restrict their ability to interact with other adults. Everyone gets bullied online. If a kid is allowed unfiltered access to the internet, then it is the parent’s fault for…
“Maybe your players don’t feel comfortable romancing NPCs because you’ve created too limited of an atmosphere and they don’t realize how open ended their options are.”
I’ve never really done a quest where you have to save someone’s significant other because it is an eye rolling trope. The only times a character’s sexuality has ever come up for me is when my D&D group was screwing around with The Book of Erotic Fantasy, when someone played a lecherous monk that ended up seducing a…
So, when the five powers combine (Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, Heart/Love) do they summon Captain Planet? If so this show jumped to the top of my must watch list.
The whole LGTB inclusion issue in D&D is a non-issue. WotC announcing this just comes off as virtue signalling for no other reason than to virtue signal. A NPC’s sexuality is something that hardly ever comes up in a campaign, so I don’t see how adding in a LGBT NPC would even make a difference unless that NPC was…
I’ve made a low strength fighter work in 3e+. You just need a high dexterity and feats that focus on dual wielding finesse based weapons. Essentially you create a fighter that deals death with a thousand cuts. Although I have no idea how I would pull that off if I wasn’t allowed to use anything outside the player’s…
“As a matter of fact, because Ghost in the Shell presents itself as OUR future, it does contradict itself because the racial make up of Tokyo in GitS is inconsistent with the current reality.”
“So ask yourself, which alternative is more believable? That Tokyo in the mid-21st century will maintain a large East Asian majority with a relatively small multiethnic minority, or that Tokyo in the mid-21st century will suddenly and inexplicably have a large Caucasian majority and the Japanese become a minority…
Your talking about a fictional universe set in the cyberpunk like future. How can you be so sure what the demographic of a location will be? I’m sorry but the argument that the setting location should affect casting choices doesn’t apply here. The world of Ghost in the Shell is set right after most of the world was…
I honestly don’t go with the whole “look, the majority of the characters in this movie are white, that is obvious racism” angle. Do you know how many Asians actually applied for the roles? Did they give off a better performance than their counterparts that got the parts? Could they speak English fluently? Until you…
I’d have to disagree with you Ghost in the Shell example simply because of the character in question, Motoko Kusanagi. What her body looks like on the outside makes little difference as long as it serves her needs. If she felt that a model that didn’t look as Asian would help her do her work better, she wouldn’t have…
The perfect cautionary tale of why never to buy a season pass before release. Do the people who were conned into paying for a season pass have any legal options to get their money back?
I dunno, I think there are allot of people who aren’t interested in watching a show that does nothing but virtue signal about how awesome non-whites are. Cause let’s be honest, that is probably what it would devolve into.
The show is about showing what the world could be like if the bad guys of history actually won. The confederate show is literally no different from Man In the High Castle in its basic premise. And to be perfectly honest with you, a show where the bad guys won is far more interesting story wise than a show where the…
Anyone else imagine Teddy giving off an evil laugh the moment after his pupils shrunk? This is some nightmare inducing stuff.
“The people who refused to go into work were expressing a political viewpoint, which you find to be correct. ’Unsafe environment’? Were they breaking OSHA regulations or threatening violence”
You seemed miss the part where I said,
“Which laws, precisely, say that you can’t fire someone if they express animus to their co-workers based on things like race, gender or national origin.”
I’m just going to leave this here since it seems that the “good” people at Gizmodo felt it necessary to edit out all of the memo’s sources and charts that provide the basis for this man’s arguments.
