First that's bullshit. Second, colonialism/conquering is literally the entire history of the human race. Get the fuck over it.

Colonialism Simulator sounds like a bombass game, actually.

Dude that is crying for a remake. We could tell them it's ironic, and there's a chance SJWs would lap it up.

There are tons of actual, and quite popular colonialism simulators around, so it's pretty hilarious that they'd try to throw an accusation like that at games that are essentially farming simulators.

It's not because it's relevant - it's because they figure the devs of anything so cutesy are vulnerable. They're basically making a full-tooth bee-line for the anus of the gazelle that sniffs the flowers and doesn't run fast.

I think it's time to colonize video game media and get rid of these heathens.

I dunno about that, but it is boring as shit. I think I played it on 3 days. It's a chore-simulator. I already have chores. Miss me, smalls, miss me.

In this world, there's a few things that humans have been super good at, and among those have been figuring out new and interesting ways to wage war, and figuring out how to conquer those who were weaker. If someone other than the Europeans of the exploration age had figured those out sooner, then world history would have turned out differently. Article's author needs to get over herself. If it weren't for colonialism and migration for better living circumstances, her ass would have been born in whatever country her ancestors came from.

Well, then, play Garden Paws instead. In this game, you're no different from the rest of the hairy little niggers. No supremacist bullshit there.

Building and exploring and creating are not things certain non-colonialist groups are traditionally known to do in their thousands of years of history, so it must seem racist and evil to have a game that celebrates the things that make people human - the need to explore and create and discover.

The commies like it, so we'll let it stand for the REEEEs.
