Capitalist brain rot.

Yeah, no shit history is complicated. But something being complicated isn’t an excuse for taking objectively abhorrent actions, which Abe did time and again. He was a far right authoritarian who purposefully stoked anti-Korean racism in order to be re-elected, made an official state visit to a shrine where actual war…
I feel like there might be important distinctions between the first black President in a nation built by black slaves and sustained by white supremacy being assassinated and the 64th ethnically Japanese president in Japan who was a far right authoritarian who intentionally stoked anti-Korean racism in order to regain…
Google Kishi Manchuria, then google comfort women, then google Japanese textbook revisionism, then google article 9 shinzo Abe. There’s reason to celebrate that someone kept it real in Japan
What? No, these are themes and discussions that come up in official canon media (Clone Wars and Rebels both go into this specific sort of philosophical discussion quite a bit, and it was a big part of The Last Jedi too) and which were being discussed in what at the time was official media too, like the New Jedi Order…
The thing is, it’s writing is 1000% better, and the story they were telling is 1000% more interesting. But the game was absolutely rushed to release, and so a lot of that writing eventually goes nowhere, and it’s plagued with bugs (although so is the original KOTOR).
Personally, I consider II to be the more interesting experience. It’s less “Star Wars” in its style, it’s much darker and while the overall plot isn’t that great, the character writing and some of the themes they discuss are vastly more interesting. That more grey view of morality and the way it presents the Light and…
It absolutely should be. But the dudes who throw a hissy fit about the depiction of women in games like to pretend that ‘Asian’ culture is a monolith that caters to their weebness.
South Korea’s dominant culture is wildly misogynistic. A culture can be misogynistic. South Korea’s is especially bad right now because their reactionary movement has made feminists their bogeymen they way other countries’ reactionaries have done the same with Muslims, immigrants, etc.
I don’t claim to be a saint but I sleep well at night knowing I haven’t abused or stolen from people that loved me. Clearly the dude was probably dealing with some issues, and I feel awful for those who were impacted by those, but as many have pointed out, Kyanka did a lot of bad things to a lot of people and was…
Goodbye and good riddance.
For those of you pointing out that he made Something Awful, sure. Shitty people make things that end up having elements of good despite them on a regular basis. The world is a better place without Lowtax.
Translated from the original racist incel: " i hate black people and dont want to hear about them at all, especially if it involves my favorite hobby which is for white folks."
God damn right I did. Great post, Ash.
Stephen Totilo hired me! And to answer your other question (which would have been answered with a little more reading):
Considering their origin and creation is scummy as fuck. This stuff never surprises me. Obligitory fuck Pendragon.
GTA:O’s loading times have been downright catastrophic since day 1 back in whatever year it came out on 360/ps3.
Yup, black people don’t trust the government because of the Russians. Not because the history of violence. Not because the police were used as tool of suppression before, during, and after the civil rights movement. Not because the history of organizations like the CDC using black populations for horrific medical…
Speaking as a POC who lived 2 years in central London, allow me to express my skepticism that racism with London cops is Russian propaganda.
