It's why everyone is being patriotic in a Starship Troopers parody game and Suicide Squad landed like a dead fish.

The old newgrounds stick games are more fun than EVERYTHING companies like Sqeet Baby touched..

The game I never knew I needed until I saw it was the one where you go back in time to fight medieval battles in like a Toyota Technical.

I saw that and my immediate thought was "I remember writing that short story in high school English". Apparently I wasn't the only one.

Elon is a gamer

All gamers eventually notice the anti-white bullshit because gamers have a thing called pattern recognition

Elon has always been a chaotic good libertarian with a high enough IQ to not get hung up on "dude weed" + communists radicalized and trooned one of his children and brag about it.

with a high enough IQ

He still married and divorced the same woman twice, though.

Well he is a Brit. They don't have a right wing, so I'm not surprised that he attacks those who actually are, just like any other British "conservative" would.

It's the opposite. They don't have a right wing, so his image of the "right wing" is mealy-mouthed UK conservatives.

Yes absolutely. But my comment isn't about that. My comment is about how Lethn consistently only criticizes to the right. And I'm not the only one who's noticed this trend.

Wholeheartedly agree. As a gamer have faced constant, and I mean constant put-downs from people, been the absolute bottom of the fucking food chain for way too long. About time we stood up for ourselves and I'm glad to have the backing of such a skilled businessman, not to mention terrific traditional family man and husband.

Rise up.

Do you actually think he is the only one who posts on his social media accounts?

One of the biggest reasons that social media has been designed the way it has is to facilitate putting on a false face for the public.

One of the worst examples is downgrading Far Cry for not addressing “white supremacy” like they felt it should’ve

They took a few jabs. "The American dream doesn't come in our color!"

Ironically the one with an all-Latinx cast, set on an island that is all their own, taking time to complain about the US, turns out to be the worst entry in the series by a mile.

the one with an all-Latinx cast

Don't use their shitty terminology. "Latinx" is neither needed or even used by actual Latino groups as "Latino" is already the neutral form.

Literal cultural appropriators want to establish the Imperialism they decry about so often and force a shitty and clumsy "English language suffix" on the word by replacing the existing historical neutral suffix "-o" with "-x", most likely because as happens with many words in other languages the neutral suffix is the same as the masculine, therefore "reeeeee".

Additionally only 3% or so of Latinos even use the stupid term, that's how low the uptake is and it's quite probable this ends up being heavily skewed by high population areas like cities in particular states further obscuring facts. Any time you see "Latinx" being used in a publication you have a very good chance of the one writing it being a completely different ethnic group.

It doesn't convey well in text but I use the term in a derogatory sense against anyone dumb enough to prefer it. Adding X to your identity screams that you revel in victimhood, and are willing to water down your own heritage in order to feel sorry for yourself. It's a pretense of being a member of some exotic but crushed people, lost to the ages because of some unnamable wrong that's definitely not your fault so everyone everywhere should feel bad for you forever.

I do not hate Latins. All are different and respectable in their origins. The term denies them that.

They made the rifle by your side song as a parody and it had the exact opposite effect

The entire FC5 game feels like they really wanted you to side against the Peggies, and then spent the entire game making them both more endearing and at times more right than anyone else.

Including a fucking amazing soundtrack of churchy music.

I listen to the Hope County Choir songs for FC5 regularly. It's part of my playlist rotation. It's really fantastic music.

Wait, they actually whined about the American dream I'm a game set in a Latin country?

At least whine about imperialism or nation building your morons.

Elon Musk should buy gaming companies, fire 80% of the dev team and make a product many magnitudes better, more optimized and probably make money. All these companies want to do GaaS but make a shitty, barebones, woke game. But most GaaS are coomer games and even Fortnite has sexy looking characters.

They need to get rid of the "identities" in games with character customization, too.

You're either male or female. Preferred pronouns are a sign of mental illness.

What's the lecture in a racing game? Reach the finish line first to pay your bills?

It's crazy how they shoehorn politics into everything, even when they're not there.
