You, uh, you don't enjoy art, do you? Modern art is all just shapes and people being wacky? Your favorite music is whatever plays on top 40 radio?

It's cool that you only engage with things on a surface level, but some people want to go further than that. :shrug:

Hell, you're posting on a forum for talking about video games.

Yeah, some people like to get worked up about 5 minutes of "gay panic" in an 80+ hour game like Persona 5 that most normal people won't even notice because it is so harmless.

Some people also like to think that the creators of Horizon hate men because women do things in the game.

Hell, people even convince themselves that Nier:automata is worth trudging through for its Philosophy 101 storyline.

What's everyone's theories on Tetris?

The upper classes can suppress an uprising of the masses by putting the right people in the right places at the right times. If the uprising is to succeed it needs to leave no openings for an individual to have broad influence over the collective.

If we can get everyone in line then we can just make them disappear and this will be seen as a positive thing!

I can't imagine why LGBT people would be unhappy that their only representation in an 80+ hour long JRPG like Persona 5 is a couple of guys creeping on an underage boy.

I'm pretty sure Funky Kong is cultural appropriation somehow so I'm off to write an essay on how you should all feel ashamed because you know that he exists and it is definitely something that should matter in your life.
