I think it often becomes related in the sense that the developers are already infusing their content with unrelated politics, which is the manifestation of SJW. I would say TLOU2 is riddled with unrelated or unnecessary political connotations. These efforts are poisoning the minds of the masses and by countering with the other political view (ours) you at least give some exposure to these NPCs that have been brainwashed to think conservative white people are the root of all evil. I don’t know how much further it would get anyone ahead, but the point is we shouldn’t be afraid to infuse some red pills into our gaming networks if we so choose, and I just don’t believe there are too many natural environments left out there where it would be considered “unrelated politics” since unrelated politics are often already there by design.
The worst part is, the book doesn’t even offer any “health information” regarding covid whatsoever. It’s purpose is to discuss the social and political aspects of the pandemic, such as how the WHO keeps saying one thing and then saying the opposite 2 weeks later. For example, “don’t wear masks, they don’t do anything anyway” to “you MUST wear a mask at all times!”
Amazon referring people to “official sources for health information” as the reason they banned the book is horse shit.
First thought that came to my mind. To me, “reverse racism” would be like being super nice to someone of another race for no reason other than to try to prove to them (or yourself) that you’re not racist. Or out of white guilt or something.
So glad I didn’t buy this game. I never played the first one either and I’m glad. Klavan’s points are all spot on in this video. The game looks like an absolute mess and nothing looks appealing about it at all. Who tf buys a zombie apocalypse game thinking “man, I hope there are a ton of sex scenes in this game!” Forget the fact they are super weird scenes. It’s pretty fucked up, man.
I forgot about the Soldier76 thing, that was indeed a woke move. You hit the nail on the head with your point about merit. It’s antithetic to left ideology and the core of conservative beliefs. I think 20 years from now there is going to be a massive difference between children raised by conservatives and ones raised by lefties. Conservative kids will be the achievers, lefty kids will be looking for their participation ribbon for the rest of their lives.
Don’t know much about indie games but there are legitimately cool “strong women of color” characters in games, ie. Overwatch or Borderlands 3. I know you aren’t trying to say it’s impossible, but it’s still worth acknowledging. I think the greater point is it shouldn’t be forced or artificial, and it definitely doesn’t need to be.
“Banned for commonly spreading misinformation?” All of the descriptions in that article of other “toxic” subreddits that have migrated to .win are misleading, subjective, or just false. Hello pot, I’m kettle...
That’s true, but they still have their own online communities whether it be Reddit or otherwise where there are opportunities for us to speak up instead of remaining “silent and tolerant” which is bullshit imo.
