It may also be a bit of damage control. The game is bad so we are going to deflect to is not woke enough.

What’s the game about? Considering the time we live in I take it they really played up the black female character and didn’t talk much about the actual game?

Where’s that Ryan day video with the racist and the liberal. Both are now yelling “why didn’t they call her a nigger?!”

Their vision:

"I walked into my local gamestop and proudly announced that I'd like to buy Forspoken because Square also made Final Fantasy 7 which I got a lot of reddit points by referencing a lot. Anyway, after asking me how I was and offering me several opportunities to sign up for various programs, the woman of color behind the counter pulled my copy of Forspoken from a silken bag, gently pressed it in my hand, and whispered "you're just like us now" before winking at me. When I saw the cover, I felt a rush of adrenaline and self consciousness like I had just drank 3 flavors of mountain dew gamer fuel at once! I was about to play as a woman of color!"

And if someone had called her a nigger or treated her badly because of her race, then Polygon would have joined the bandwagon alongside all the other urinalists condemning the game for promoting hate by depicting it using the Forbidden Word (that blacks call each other all the fucking time).

Nevermind that this bitch deserves all the hatred she can get considering she's a car thief, aka one of those responsible for the 52% (and probably 90% in New York City, where they are allowed to do whatever the hell they want without consequence).

Remember: in CRT, the question is not "did racism occur during this interaction?" It is "how did racism manifest itself during this interaction?"

The alleged racism is always assumed. It's just up to you to find it.
