I’m curious how this article fits the scope of Kotaku's mission as a video game- centric, or at least video game-adjacent, website?  It certainly advances the popular "we dislike Elon Musk because he's not on our team anymore" agenda, but really, besides that where is the value in this piece?

Made you aware of what specifically? James Gunn is on record defending Pratt’s character, including explicitly stating that Pratt isn’t homophobic, but it’s cool to hate someone you don't know just because someone else told you to.  Think harder and be a better person. 

It’s a touch sad that your takeaway from this is political.  The two-party, us vs them system has you entirely brainwashed.

Imagine being this mad because someone disagrees with you....

How do you deal with China?  Serious question, because their wanton disregard for human rights demands action.  A lot of people want to give them a pass because Trump is on an anti-China tirade, but is it ok to let genocide go unchecked because we have a vested interest economically?

“China does some heinous shit” but...nothing. Rounding up a million Muslims and placing them in concentration “reducation” camps in which they are sterilized and fed propaganda then forced to perform slave labor gets no qualifier on the end.  F the economic fallout, are we cool turning the other way while human rights…

The fact that you can type this openly without fear of reprisal and the fact that unmarked agents arresting protestors is widely discussed in both MSM and social media, underscores exactly how large the gulf is between China and the U.S.  Our worst fears are China’s everyday realities.

I agree with most of what you are saying, but again, on the issue of going public...irrespective of whether or not the behavior is criminal, is abusive, or how it is categorized, it makes sense to me that someone seeking to protect other women from unknowingly entering into an affair (and possibly to protect the…

Your third line explains you second....

Curious why you think she shouldn’t have gone public with this?  If her intent is to protect other people from his actions, broadcasting them seems the best way to do so.

Gotcha, you are either a lawyer or ok with infidelity, or both.  Although technically you are correct, the poster’s meaning was crystal clear, as was the spirit of what he or she was trying to convey.

I’m ok with it. People who don’t give a flying ____ about others probably are not. Sucks when reprehensible actions have tangible consequences, doesn’t it?

How to spot a cheater, Vol. 1....

Sorry for the late reply, had not been on Kotaku in a bit. I took umbrage with the phrasing “Video games HAVE to reckon...” when really a suggestion or call to action would ideally be look something like “video games SHOULD reckon...” “Have to” is an imperative, and leaves little room for discussion; again, in my…

Thanks for your thoughtful reply. I think it’s fair to state that there are institutional problems with law enforcement in this country, including but not limited to a reluctance and/or inability to weed out the “bad cops”. I do not agree that necessarily makes the “good cops” complicit, as to be complicit I feel that…

Haha “bootlicker”. That’s cute, definitely the phrase du jour among those who abhor living in a society that actually has rules and systems to enforce those rules. Perhaps you’d prefer a vigilante system where we all make and enforce our own rules? That kind of thinking is what led to the murders of Trayvon Martin and…

Ah yes, you must be here for the enlightened discourse. I’ll take “nerd” to mean that you were not able to comprehend the combination of words that I strung together.  Please have someone read them to you then we can chat about their content. 

I’m kind of at a loss as to where to start with this article. How about this-my underlying assumption is and has been that law enforcement needs to change how it interacts with the black community, but most cops are just like us: Hard-working, good people. T

You are a f-ing idiot, and I don’t say that lightly.  Parent your own kids dipshit.

Actually it's not.  Good try though.
