Kotakuinaction's mission statement was opposition to censorship and bad journalism. It is impossible to oppose these things without opposing leftism itself. Virtually all bad journalism and censorship is coming from the left. So the sub began to organically tilt conservative.

The mods leaned more left, and they became obsessed with making sure the sub did not become "another T_D". So they implemented a ridiculously vague rule of "no unrelated politics". They then used this rule to remove content that was absolutely relevant but supported conservativism.

At one point, the mods actually put the rules to a vote. The users overwhelmingly opposed the absurd content removals. The mods didn't care. They ignored the results of the vote and continued arbitrarily removing content. Some of the mods became openly hostile to the users.

On a related note: the Kia mods lost their shit when users started talking trash about polyamory. I can't imagine the mods would have behaved this way unless one or more of them were engaged in the polyamorous lifestyle. We might have been dealing with literal cucks.

Kotakuinaction2 was created as a lifeboat for those who abandoned the increasingly garbage moderation of Kia. Whereas kia1's mods censored content to avoid becoming too conservative, kia2 mods are stridently free speech (to the extent that Reddit permits).

I've already seen Kia mods on .win lying about what happened.

Two gigantic mistakes were made in the 90s:

1. Permitting the segregation of language based on racial identity

2. Permitting the continued use of "black" and "white" to describe European and African peoples. It would be impossible to defend anti-whiteness if it were explicitly opposed to European ethnicities.

I think you can hope for more interesting storytelling in videogames without praising something this incompetent.
