I truly, honestly feel sorry for you if you read these kinds of messages, and have that reaction.

Get good, lmao

Look, sexism isn’t okay

“Go outside. Lighten up. Do literally anything else with your life.”

Agreed, these articles are pushing me away from Kotaku, same reason I stopped using Polygon.

They are being paid to be offended. It is manufactured outrage. Sane people don’t give a shit about this.

The deception is part of the game’s world. The game literally has NPCs who troll you.

Yet another “why is this even an article on Kotaku?” moment.

I don’t post notes like this in Soulsborne games, nor do I find them funny... however, getting tilted enough to make a 2 page dissertation on the matter is fucking ludicrous. Go outside. Lighten up. Do literally anything else with your life.

“My X is more important than your Y” is the whole basis of outrage culture.

Yes sooooo many people lost their diginity as a result of this. Why don't you list them now. 

Oh no... A subset of a subset of people has been offended but in no real way affected by a joke. My heart goes out to them.
I hope deleting the tweet was enough, and pray they recover swiftly.

No they’re actually right in this case. People are going around trying to be officially recognized as lizards or cats. Look ‘em up they’re out there.

While it’s not my place/nor right to tell someone whether they’re offended or not. I do feel that we’ve spent so much effort and energy on fighting microaggressions, that we forgot to fight normal aggression and now it’s sitting in the White House and walking the streets carrying tiki torches.

This is how it SHOULD be! Some people take themselves far too seriously. 

It is a stupid joke for sure, but outrage culture is way more annoying.

I always thought that the attack helicopter joke was because people were trying to identify as horses and dragons and other bullshit.

honestly these days you cant say anything without someone thinking your offending someone. usually when the person is calling that out, they arnt part of the community they think someone is offending.

But...but...the headline clearly says that it IS!!
