The game’s scope is very broad, but not very deep. The map is beautiful, and it’s huge, but the actual activities you’ll be engaged in during the game fall into a repetitive cycle very quickly, and aren’t all that interesting to begin with, and the length of the game feels artificially padded by that repetition to the…

Yes you do. I mean....here you are. And that eats at you, doesn’t it? That you can’t help but care, because you know I’m right, but you’re too afraid to let go of your lazy excuses. They’re all that keep you warm at night.

Once Bayek has freed Faiyum of the Crocodile’s influence, he returns to Aya and Cleopatra in Herakleion, in the northeast corner of the map. The game’s story kicks into overdrive, seemingly hurtling toward its conclusion.

Keep on believing you’ve earned your privilege if that makes you feel better. Your ignorance shows the rest of the world just how little you deserve it.

No, all white people exist in a state of social privilege because of history. Going through your life without attempting to reject that undeserved privilege—which comes at the expense of other human beings—and create a more equal society is itself racism by way of negligence, ignorance, and apathy; a type of racism…

Your communities are shitholes because none of your daddies were around to raise you right.

Well, it’s white people who have committed genocide across the planet to steal resources from indigenous peoples in order to establish economic dominance and use that power to oppress people the world over, so...

Maybe. All it took was Michael Moore posting a picture of a fracking rig and a promise to park it off the coast at Mar-a lago to get the off-shore drilling approval process into turmoil

Oh, I’m so sorry you have to deal with the horrors of everyday life, and you’re too busy not to be racist. Poor you. You sound so oppressed.

Every child is born into this world with a clean slate. Racism, for that matter, is not a genetic trait, but a flawed perspective that is taught.

Every “white advance” has come at the expense of indigenous peoples across the world. Your “advancements” were bought with blood during the colonial era. You didn’t earn any of it. It was taken from others by your ancestors, and you sit there in your privilege and pretend you deserve it.

As opposed to the Republican playbook, which is “criticize first, then make up your own facts.”

In large part, yes, it is.

I don’t think it’s either/or. I think he doesn’t care about minorities or poor people. Or basically anyone that isn’t him, honestly.

100 is too long for a list of important pop culture moments over the course of 10 years, as illustrated by the fact that I don’t think any of these initial 20 were particularly important moments for pop culture.

the proposition that a person is racist simply because they are white, is nonsense.

White violent crime does not happen at anywhere near the high rate and scale that violent black crime does

Cool, now report all the white crime from the same timeframe. Any new mass shootings by a white guy this week? You know statistically they’re usually the ones to blame.

Of course he’s racist. It’s just not the slavering, rampant hatred you see from neo-Nazis and other white supremacists. It’s the normalized, mundane racism that’s motivated not by hatred or malice, but by ignorance and indifference. He doesn’t care about black or brown people, and so he isn’t interested in their…

You just gonna ignore the fact that black people have taken ownership over the character in the interim? Ignore the fact that the character has largely been shaped by black creators for decades, including the current comic book run being written by io9's own Evan Narcisse, and the current movie adaptation written by,…
