Feels close to a double standard here - who makes the rules on what religion is fair game for stereotypes? Can I use the trope of religious intolerance for a Muslim as interchangeably to a Christian, Catholic etc?

“...despite your admirable honesty about your affable relations with the developers.”

On the one hand, overkill - however if it shines a spotlight on the responsibility of parents to, you know, parent their kids and not blame all social ills on "video games" then I'm for that conversation at least.

Don't count on it. I believe the twist is going to be that Agent 47 is the good guy, who is trying to kidnap the girl to blackmail her father into closing down the Agent Program, while Zachery Quinto is the bad guy for trying to keep her safe (and thus the Agent Program safe too).

"Which are himself, as envy, and Mills as wrath."

It is if your "choice" to do so was due to pressure from external groups and/or individuals. Sure in that case it becomes self-censorship, but that is still non-consented censorship.

First, congratulations for bringing up the KKK, now surely refuting you will make me look like a KKK apologist right? No, not really - that doesn't work.

My goal is to see more games exist regardless of what people may or may not think of them or the devs. Because that's what it means to be liberal. To live as if all ideas are free and fair to exist, but that we're also free and fair to ignore them, not to shame them.

What is the goal then?

Your example doesn't help your First Amendment point at all.

Censorship is the suppression of speech, public communication or other information which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, politically incorrect or inconvenient as determined by governments, media outlets, authorities or other groups or institutions.

In this thread, you were the first one to bring up the First Amendment. I don't believe that's the only reason people think it deserves to exist. A few other reasons it deserves to exist could include, but are not limited to:

"Moral offense" - this isn't moral, it's practical. You're fucking up a landmark by stepping on it.

Ninja Ant Warriors? Edgar Wright is a lot of things, and he makes off the world helter skelter films, but weird for the sake of being weird he is not. As for "serious" have you seen some of the more emotionally charged scenes in ANY of his films?

That red team guy is the High Five Master - counted at least 50 of them.

You have to take the good with the bad. It's up to consumers to recognize this, not to be forced to accept the difference. Also an "efficient" reporting system is incredibad, since it can be abused. See YouTube reporting, where devs use it to shut down bad reviews.

Maybe play it a bit more, without rushing?

And yet... ahead of its time.

That trope is fairly cliche. I wouldn't say, brilliant.
