Great movie. My kids really enjoyed it as well. Not particularly shocking, boys will be boys.
Isn't parody protected under federal law?
Weren't we just hearing about how trans MtF breastmilk was so safe despite the metric ton of hormones they're on? Wonder how that plays into this news lol.
On one hand, I get it. The parents in this particular case were scumbag dipshits of the highest order, refusing to get their kid when asked to by the school and responding to their son being caught buying ammo IN FUCKING SCHOOL by telling him not to get caught next time.
On the other hand, this sets a really weird precedent that'll get abused from now till the end of time.
That's basically how I'm feeling about it right now.
I'm not hoping this replaces common sense or deductive reasoning, just thinking it can be a tool to use that might compliment those things. Thinking "Wow, this news article seems really biased" and then checking if others have had the same thought is more what I'm after, not having a place think for me. It's easy to let our own biases cloud our judgement, so having a way to see what conclusions others have come to is nice.
Now we just need someone near a Sony dev office to go apply and sue them after being turned down.
Sounds like a set up for a 90s rap song.
"Yo, I'm fresher than a loaf of bread"
Are directed EMPs a thing? Maybe I've been watching too much X-Files.
It's actually pretty evenhanded in the satire, mocking both sides of the aisle. The Automaton flag is a literal Communist flag, they call the Bugs (those poor exploited animals) fascists as justification for attacking them, officers talk about "being on the right side of history" occasionally after completing a mission, and enemies are occasionally called a threat to democracy. There's some more, but I haven't had my coffee yet and my brain isn't firing on all cylinders yet.
It also mocks the left constantly, but they conveniently ignore that part when talking about the satire.
It always amuses me when community managers, who had absolutely nothing to do with a game's development, act like they were integral to said development and most definitely know all about it.
Also, the satire is pretty evenhanded and targets both the left and right.
I cannot even begin to imagine the sheer rage that legitimate victims must feel when shit like this comes to light. Knowing how nuts some women are, I'm a bit shocked we haven't seen assaults over this crap.
The culturization part I get, as Japanese culture is pretty different from Western culture, so certain traditions and such from there don't even exist here and might be pretty confusing to the player. But the dei bullshit has got to go.
...yep. Disregard my previous comment, am retard.
Playing devil's advocate...how old were they in 2008?
Just a few years ago the left would have freaked the fuck out over this kind of stuff. Now they rally around it and even praise it.
Sounds a bit like two assholes calling one another the bigger asshole.
If you really want to see some bullshit, look up an early, almost proto-punk band called Death (not to be confused with the metal band of the same name). Black dudes making music about ACTUAL issues, such as politicians not caring about the public, class wealth disparity, etc...yet they get almost no respect or attention outside of a small circle of punk fans. Instead we get glorified thug culture that only serves to further damage the black community because that drivel is useful to the powers that be.
Hey, that thing that never happens happened again.
I really wish Nitter was still a thing, because there's no way I'm making an X account just to see the replies.
ACG and Gameranx both said the world is really fun to explore and is full of life. Really seems like the monetization was pushed by Capcom and the devs just wanted to make their game.
I take it you didn't play the first one then?
This is an odd one to me, because even smaller reviewers were saying how good it is.
There aren't quotation marks big enough for the term "Christian conference" being used here.
