I’m sure there are people that subscribe to this line of thinking, that white is right pretty much anywhere, but personally as someone that has studied history academically and as a hobby, I’m very interested in how and why even white people came to be where they are. From the gradual migration of Neanderthals and Homo…

Thought the same thing when I read that, I was like; oh there is definitely gonna be a mountain of lore explaining why these other races and species are there and the trouble it caused. I just take it as pandering for the sake of it, so they don’t get lambasted in the comments.

This is a really reductive take on this, which is par for the course at the moment with Kotaku. Just a hot take that glances over the issue and panders to nothing and no one in particular.

As I do my best to do, practice what you preach after all 🏴‍☠️

It’s hard to say for certain if they had consultants or if the actors themselves played a part but yes, predictably, the 3 main credited writers are middle aged, presumably rich, white dudes.

Yeah, for me the most telling and real metric would be “most commented”. I would love to see that.

Just a question, and genuinely asking, are any of the writers on GTA… black?

Bungie’s head of HR steps down, also victim of abuse or reveals personal abuse she suffered?

It’s impossible to find your reply to my comment so I’m here instead. I probably should’ve googled first. That’s how white I am.

I guess with Dave Chapelle they can claim that you’re actually just racist and cancelling him would be losing a POC. Much like that show with tweens in revealing outfits dancing provocatively, it was a commentary.

That’s a very three dimensional view, in a very two dimensional world. Kotaku especially, tends to veer on the side of this streamer, that it is cool to be “reverse racist”.

I had people here call me “Whitey”. They were intentionally trying to antagonise me during a discussion about race where they ended up calling me racist, then calling me “Whitey” and then excusing it by saying “you can’t be reverse racist” (POC on white). When provoked further, they also said that “reverse sexism”…

I’m so white, just to be safe they called me “White”.

How dare you generalise “White” people?!

I’ve been called “Whitey” on this very site, under the get out clause that it’s a “nickname”.

I have literally no clue what the fuck you are saying here 🤣

Aw shucks! Why thank you ☺️ 

This is what I mean:

“You’re just to hung up on trying to convince people that the live action show was just as good as the anime and react negatively when people don’t agree with you.”
