That's actually hilarious.

I'm about to start campaigning for every game without a Jewish character to include this. I wonder how many studios I can get to put a bullshit 'trigger warning' about the lack of Stars of David in their older games.

Where does this end?

Silent Hill 2

portray reality as existing without people of color

The reality is that Maine is still today 94.4% non-Hispanic white. Areas that Silent Hill is based on are probably skewed even higher.

Not to mention the issues these people have separating reality from fiction.

So um. The warning is due to the monsters not being black? Or maybe it's the dog?

Full character list: https://silenthill.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Silent_Hill_2_Characters

The game consists of only 8 actual characters.

A secluded town in Maine isn't going to have the same demographics as a urban metropolis generally, especially not after the majority of it's residents have moved away due to a floundering tourism industry, supernatural fuckery, and a doomsday cult taking root.

Every town must have the same demographics as the United States of the current year. Even if that town is in 14th century Bohemia. Especially if that town is in 14th century Bohemia.

Warning, no niggers around, feel free to leave your car door unlocked..

Is it really bad that whenever they say 'people of colour' we know they mean exclusively black Americans since every other race doesn't have this self entitled behaviour on representation in fictional media.

I saw where you looked it up and said it was fake. I’m not outraged but I think these are dumb. I wouldn’t be surprised if such a warning existed. I watch a lot of classic tv and in the last few years a warning has come on before All in the Family ( although some sort of warning came on when it originally aired the first time). I watched a movies with Al Jolson and before the movie they felt the need to provide context about black face. When I read Uncle Tom’s Cabin someone warned me about harsh language. I should’ve done some research but a warning like this wouldn’t surprise me.

Yet old games like CS:GO, you get spawned with a random player skin color or Tomb Raider and Portal where you play as a female. Turns out most games don't really give a fuck if the game is well produced. If you're too sensitive to not be able to handle that, just quit gaming and honestly just quit the internet. You've been brainwashed if you need a trigger warning

I've done some digging, and I can't find even a hint of a source that this is legitimate. There is just no way something like this wouldn't have gotten more coverage if it was real. I rate this image fake and gay/10.

Can link to the thread if it's allowed. Now that people are calling it out I too am skeptical, but I didn't really seeing anyone calling it out in the original thread, which is generally the case. Maybe because it wasn't /v/

There's no way to know whether this is in the game. The only media that has been released for the Silent Hill 2 remake are trailers, and a sort of interview with the development team. Whatever "leaks" have been published are just re-uploads of these with pure speculation. Nothing that has been put out has even hinted at a racial trigger warning.

Day 47:

The time I have gone without exposure to the magic Negro race has taken it's toll. It has caused me permanent emotional damage. I have become desperate. I have glued marshmallows to a coconut in order to satiate my need for ebony camaraderie. I have named the coconut Mr. DuBouis, and have attempted to sing rap songs with him. However, my incurable whiteness has caused me to forget the rap lyrics, many of which include the n-word which may offend him, and as such can not be said. I wander the LaCrosse field, delirious and half-naked, screaming "Fuck the Poh Lease" at Mr. DuBouis in the hopes that he will either respond, or that I may attract a nearby black, but to no avail. For a moment, I assumed that I would find refuge in the arms of the janitorial crew, but they were Latinx, and could not help me.

I do not know how much longer I have. If this letter reaches my friends and loved ones, tell them that I wasn't racist.

I'd rather have the content warnings about lack of diversity than having EVERY games plagued by diversity. Surely, getting rid of the entire progressive politics in games would be great but that's not going to happen.

... there are like six characters in the game. How is not actively having a black person the same as 'portraying reality as existing without' them? What the fuck? Is it portraying reality as existing without electricians, Norwegians or giraffes just because it doesn't depict them?

This is a dark road to go down. We are descending into utter insanity.

Though, is this fake? There was an 'article' about them removing the nurses from the game for being oversexualized, and that turned out to be fake. This is about the same level of stupidity, so I have to ask.

Correct! If I had been a famous writer or artist or movie maker or whatever, I’d just answer all criticism of that kind by saying “I don’t write for your movement.”

Change out “write” for whatever verb is most appropriate to the art form I was in.
