have you ever played a fighting game? calm down b.
Let me guess, one more character with any appealing figure will demand a removal of the character, and will cause another femnazi uproar. Give it a few months, I’m positive it will happen
get your politics outta my videogames
Diversity? Have you ever played Street Fighter?
*Historically* doesn’t mean shit in the present.
My ancestors were historically oppressed by the romans, so should I demand money from the italian government? No, because the italians are no longer the romans.
Africans from certain tribes enslaved other africans, though certainly not to the same vicious degree as whites because it was more servant based; should the remnants of the Zulu pay reparations to those their ancestors enslaved? No, because the Zulu of the 1700s don’t exist anymore.
And so, white slave owners and white supremacists until about 1950-ish oppressed blacks. Should white people as a whole therefore have to pay reparations, whether economical or social, to atone for the sins of their fathers and grandfathers? No, because despite it not having centuries between their dark deeds, it’s still in the past.
My friend who’s grandfather helped lynch a man? His grandfather is a fucking bastard and I hope he rots in hell, but my friend is not his grandfather.
well said m8
even when all videogames would be about cis white male people, how is this a bad thing. we shouldnt jugde a videogame on the sex or colourskin of the main protaganist. this would be sexist and racist.
lool but the feminists don’t care if it applies to cisgendered white men then its racist
huff po is cancer
