I wonder how all the black people that missed out on jobs, funding, etc. feel about it though. That type of thing has both an economic, professional, and mental and emotional effect. She didn’t just steal culture , she stole opportunity that would have benefited actual black people on multiple levels. I hope she gets…

The takedown and the burn(s) of this article are deeply satisfying.

nothing says “I am a dickhead named Paul” better than the phrase “bemused r-words”

So there’s no difference between people laughing at you and laughing with you? I beg to differ.

There are certainly left wing or politically neutral conspiracy theories out there, but the specific ones that this game seems to be basing its plot on are ones that are almost exclusively believed by the far right, essentially that all protests aren’t ordinary people upset about injustices, but are all actors being…

The writer literally suggests that the theory is problematic given its context, which includes how it was used by Nazi-sal…

Ian literally quoted a far right conspiracy theorist who was talking about how happy this footage was in the trailer. It’s... not even close to a stretch, y’know?

Okay, Kyle.

This literally is a far right conspiracy theory. Whether you believe it’s appropriate to feature it in a video game’s marketing is a another thing but nothing is being turned into anything.

Hey look another dingus who didn’t read the article and/or has no idea what politics are. Go back to your baby army game.

No, HIV Denialism and alt-right nationalism is far right. And you’re a far right apologist, if not supporter. A terribly transparent one at that.

casting a short,curvy, dark woman as Princess Diana would’ve been an interesting choice.
