Simple.  Because blackwashing is not a thing.  It doesn’t exist.  

But what we’re seeing here, in this very example, is not progress. Do you think anyone in the planning meeting resisted the addition of Angrboda?

If you think a game like God of War is only played by liberals who live in a liberal echo chamber, or that “everyone is on board,” then you’re painfully naive, and you haven’t seen the howls of outrage from exactly the sorts of bigots you’re raging against. The fact that this angers them means that it sent the

The article is talking about representation in video games. High profile examples of well-executed diversity in big budget games IS a sign of progress of representation in videogames.

Man, I wish that was still how the world worked! 

I worked at CitiField for two seasons like 10 years ago. I was the only person who knew how to clean the ice cream machine, so I had to do it every night. It taught me a good lesson: don’t be the guy at work who knows how to do things, because there’s no benefit to you.
