My hot take is that I would hope a future Smash titles significantly dialed back its scope and reduced the character roster size to half. This is the ULTIMATE Smash with everyone in it; the only way to go in the future is to focus it more with a smaller roster but a more robust single player campaign and more emphasis…

As an enby I think defaulting to singular they until otherwise corrected is probably the best move. Additionally, while in this case I get that you may mean that they simply haven’t told us what pronouns that they use I think it’s important to note that these aren’t our preferred pronouns. They are simply our…

Brian’s article appears to just be regurgitating statements of fact, so I’m not sure what part you think is reaching?

Microsoft, the corporation, is considered ‘liberal’? Or are you suggesting that whoever crafted this list was liberal?

Chess has been recognised as a sport by the International Olympic Committee since 2000.

The IOC classifies chess as a sport; though personally I think Darts and Bowling are better comparisons.

Listen, none of us were there, so all we can go by are the accounts of those who were. You also, chose to conveniently ignore the part where the officer was said to have pepper sprayed the man and his family without cause, direction, or explanation.

You’re ignoring the bit about hyper-aggression and pepper-spraying a family with young children.

Cops claim he was speeding* cops lie

Scott is a rich white guy who hates minorities, which means he meets all the qualifications to be the next Republican president.

Felice Leon didn’t ask for an apology. The most marginalized of us don’t enjoy suffering. What I see and hear is the pain of hearing that your home, your life, your experience (long invisible) will be faithfully represented...and it’s not. In a place like Washington Heights, where you see a world of chocolate beauty,…

Who is saying he shouldn’t have the “right” to donate to them? People are simply pissed because they’re finding out that money they gave him through buying his game is going to fund politicians that are trying to pass legislation that will take their rights away.

He is a businessman. His money comes from his customers. That means that money I spent on his games went to support people actively attempting to destroy this country, and my rights as an LGBT person.

“Just because this guy happens to disagree with some liberal causes absolutely does not mean he doesn’t love his LGBTQIA+ fans or that he supports all right-wing policy.”

““I’ve never cared about anyone’s race, religion, gender, or orientation,” Cawthon wrote”

Exactly.  This is like when people say “I don’t see race.”  Well then it’s no fucking wonder you don’t recognize your own racism.  

I’ve reached a point where I just want to indulge every right-winger’s paranoid fantasies. Let’s destroy Scott Cawthorn’s game design career. Let’s cancel anybody who donated a penny to Donald Trump. Let’s take away their hamburgers and their Mr. Potato Heads. Let’s give citizenship to tons of immigrants and bring…

While it’s not anywhere near as bad or as prevalent as the flip side, this is an example of “leaning so far left, you’re right.” It’s making woke-ness an identity, the idea that anything and everything not explicitly [Left-Focused Demographic] deserves harsh criticism on par with actually-harmful organizations. In…

If this is what they were calling for, they’d be rightly condemned. But they aren't.

I very clearly explained what I could only see as a willing and deliberate misinterpretation of their words. They wanted to ensure the games on display were representative and inclusive. Of course all the games would be “wholesome” - that would be the point.
