They probably have a dumb kid fresh out of college running social media for them. No editor with a functioning brain would allow an article to run with that hook. They've always tried to be somewhat edgy but I don't think they're that stupid.

Yeah, my thoughts as well. OH NO, the SJW agenda to... have an optional pronoun, and maybe have some diversity in character design? This is the great Satan that's ruining gaming?

It's so odd to see someone who believes in chemtrails but isn't that worried about them. Like "sure, chemtrails exist, but let's focus on the real issue - the tyranny of shoes".

Concrete? I used to go barefoot most of the time and concrete is about the last thing I'd ever complain about. It's flat, it's solid, it's easy to see and avoid things you don't want to step on.

The logical conclusion is to use "they" for every character, so you don't have to put in extra dialog that changes depending on the gender of the characters. Think of how much time that will save the developers that they can devote to making extra levels or abilities. (I guarantee it's only in the game because someone was stuck on something else and as a distraction tried to see how hard it would be to implement a third gender option, realized it wouldn't be hard at all,and suggested it be in the game).

Probably like 10 times as hard as adding a playable woman in a video game, since they're harder to animate then men.


Also, thanks for pointing out that Twitter, because I've been wanting 'bad gamer opinions' for years. And nothing sticks in my mind like the Gamefaqs best game ever tournament so I know I'm forgetting tons of stupid poo poo.

Okay, someone's gonna have to explain this one to me, because aside from the last two, I don't get it at all.

So part of the rights strategy with shootings now is to just flood with disinformation, that's what I assume the first one is about. The second one is a meme they think is still funny, and also part of the disinformation thing.

I wish I could pull up context from a story awhile back where someone was posting pictures he found on google going "Has anyone seen my autistic brother??".
