Probably not, I wouldn't. But I work at a multinational game company that makes games for the entire world, so I'd make it my business to find out. That said, I think the important thing is that when it was brought to their attention they swiftly reacted and took it out.

It is trivial and insigificant to you because you (likely) have the privilege of not belonging to a race that has been denigrated for many centuries. This one animation alone is not the only problem - it’s the towering stack of racist caricatures of Native American people that draws a stereotypical and negative…

Ir is a privilege to be able to “relax into” a racial issue and not get worked up about it.

Uh...what? Of course European settlers took the land. The Native Americans were here first and had their own systems of laws and regulations about ownership and land rights. The Europeans saw something they wanted and trampled all over the Natives’ sovereignty to take it. Let’s not rewrite history.

Condoms also take control of fertility and birth control away from women. With other forms of contraception, women at least have control (in theory, if they're not in abusive situations).

I'm black. I also don't think only black people can represent or care about my interests. I don't know much about Tlaib but from what I hear she seems willing to pound the pavement and listen to her constituents, and has talked openly about race. I'm glad she's proud of her heritage and that she draped herself with a…

Yeah I’m from New York and never really understood the bad rap Cuomo got. Sure he’s a political scion...but he’s an ok political scion? What else did people want him to do?

Good for her - she shouldn’t. I knew this particular race wouldn’t be called last night and as close as the polls are, every goddamn vote matters. Nah fam, we gonna sit here and count ALL these votes.

I mean, what exactly do you expect a teacher to do when a kid yells slurs at him and throws a basketball at him? What “skills” and helping hand do you expect then? Teachers are humans, too, and their safety deserves to be considered. I don’t condone the punching the kid, but throwing him out of class is absolutely a…

No, actually, what it teaches him is that violence is an appropriate reaction to someone doing something you don’t like - so it actually makes him more likely to have the wrong reaction at a police stop.

Actually, my mom did explain all of those things to me as a child. She didn’t have to spank me to get me to do any of them.

I used to feel the same way, I really did, but the science is not on the side of spanking and hitting your kids.

Yes, Zelda is always very confused about why we are slacking on taking her out at the proper time.

Because they think they can continue to do what they have done for centuries: use black people’s talents and creativity for their own purposes while stomping all over our rights and privileges.

I mean, was there ever any question whether Mo’Nique and Queen Latifah are plus-sized? Has there ever been a time when they’ve been publicly prominent and working that they haven’t been plus-sized?

Yasssss. She makes B movies great. I never would’ve enjoyed Last Holiday if the Queen wasn’t in it. She even made Bringing Down the House work. Kind of. Well, she was charming in it.

All skinfolk ain’t kinfolk, and that goes for all shades of brown around us.

I live in a really contentious Congressional district (gerrymandered in such a way that it’s almost 50/50 suburban liberal/Democratic and rural conservative/Republican) and not only have I been seeing ads, I have gotten phone calls, text messages and handwritten letters urging me to vote (often for specific people,…

Video games already aren’t movies, though. I don’t think anyone would argue that RDR2 is anything like a movie. It’s an interactive experience that spans (apparently) over 70 hours, and has many moving pieces that contribute to it. The representational character designs are just once piece of it, but for many people…

Because it’s actually pretty difficult to tell a non-linear story. Stories are kind of linear by definition - they have beginnings, middles, and ends. Sure you can amp up the complexity of the middle, but there are still some parts you need to understand others. It’s really difficult to create a truly open world game…
