You're going to see this everywhere. Every space will suddenly become "apolitical" now that the election is "over" because politics right now means opposing fraud, lockdowns, and global communism.

Look at Georgia, where the GOP is talking about trading this election for voter ID "next time". You know, after Biden amnesties 30 million illegals and throws open the borders, suddenly voter ID won't be racist.

You have to understand these companies are terrified of getting on the bad side of the Democrats / Media.

People are inherently lazy and stupid, they would rather make a deal with the Devil then lose any market share by taking a stand.

Until we fix the media this will never change.

Until we fix the media

At this point I think the window for a fix is closed. Salvage parts, maybe. Rebuild after it burns down, more likely.

You can tell that because they have been making Animal Crossing more and more "inclusive" to try and satisfy the progressives. Male and female are basically the same, more skin tones, less gendered character catchphrases, and recently added more black hairstyles.

I would believe that these kinds of things were pushed for internally by Nintendo of America towards the Japanese development team.

It would be more meaningful if they said this BEFORE the elections are over.

Games are inherently political.

The only time this phrase is ever used is when a game beats you over the head with a "future is female" agenda. That's not politics, that's brainwashing

So you're okay with politics in games?

Don't mind retardjuiced he's reddit trash leftover that somehow ended up here.

Like a diseased dog that follows you around if you look at them.

but where's the logic in such trash as Battlefield V flipping the gender of real heroes of the second world war

What happened to GamerGate's 'they're fictional characters' now?

What happened to GamerGate's 'they're just pixels on a screen' now?

I don't know what arguments you're talking about.

The "why does it matter if her boobs are bigger than her head, she's a fictional character"

the unearned superiority of a group who did more to help the Axis Powers than the Allies

Women did more to help the Axis Powers than the Allies?

Battlefield is fictional work no more flipping real events than Kantai Collection and Drifters
