Here is the trans stuff mentioned earlier
Later in the game, The Fractured but Whole asks you to choose your character's gender. In a conversation with South Park school counsellor Mr Mackey (the "drugs are bad MKAY" guy), you must choose from three options: male, female and other. In previous South Park game A Stick of Truth, you had to play as a boy.

Our Aoife and Chris picked female. Mr Mackey ums and ahs before calling your parents, who reinforce the decision.

It turns out, if you pick a non-male character, Ubisoft will use the conversation with Mr Mackey as a smart retconning of The Stick of Truth.

"So the whole King and Stick of Truth thing, she was actually a girl the entire time?"

Mr Mackey then asks you to clarify exactly what you mean by a girl. You're then asked to select whether you identify as cisgender or transgender.

Aoife and Chris picked transgender, and Mr Mackey once again calls your parents. "It still tracks with The Stick of Truth, yes it does. She was definitely a girl the whole time. Yes of course. I get it."

Both sides are being trolled equally by Parker and Stone here, just for the sake of it. Brilliant. Sheer genius.


Did you read the article? Combat is the same. But people give you less money and treat you worse because you're black. Cartman outright says ""Don't worry, this doesn't affect combat. Just every other aspect of your whole life."

Aladdin never needed a token white guy and this decision has most certainly made me change my mind about buying a ticket to see this one.

They've insulted me twice. Once for thinking that I'd be more likely to see a movie if I had a designated character to identify with simply on grounds of racial identity. And once again for telling me that I'm meant to identify with the guy who gets cuckolded by the protagonist.

I'm sure he'll get some rebound chick, but I don't give a fuck. I don't need or want a role in this story, but I'm sure as shit not going to watch it and vicariously identify with the guy who loses Jasmine. I don't care for the pandering, racial politics, or soap opera bull shit. This is Aladdin, not some show on the CW.


Skye Reynolds posted...
If they needed to include a white guy (they didn't), they should have made him a Greek merchant who evades arrest when Aladdin rescues him. Later in the film, the merchant repays the favor.

That's it. That's all you need. A harmless character who feels like he might belong in a more fleshed out version of the original Aladdin story rather than one who would get in the way of it.

One of the characters lost a family member to guns.

Oliver's workplace is also shot up by a mass shooter in the episode. That's what starts it.

Oliver also lost friends to bows and arrows, right? So clearly he should support bow control as well


I never said it was Oliver and I never said what his opinion was.

That's what everyone says. But time marches on, history repeats, the names of ideas get changed; and without a foundation of knowledge by which to understand how to evaluate the ideas before you and a willingness to tackle them so you aren't caught off-guard, those who subscribe to such ideas will inevitably increase.


These guys have already chosen which foundation to build their knowledge on. They live in America. We're not talking about some poor people stuck in a third world country who have no other choice.


Dragonblade01 posted...
You can call their ideas stupid or whatever as much as you or anybody else wants. That's fine. I don't have a problem with criticizing people who promote ideas you disagree with. I have no problem with treating Neo-Nazis like we treat Scientology. But I would have a huge problem with treating them like how we treat ISIS, which is a literal terrorist organization. If we were talking about a group like the Aryan Brotherhood, that would be one thing. But we're not. We're talking about a bunch of random citizens who have subscribed to an idea for whatever reason. Like Westboro, you can call them stupid. Hell, I would call them stupid. Just be sure you are able and willing to give a good answer for why you call them that when asked.


Not everyone who follows ISIS is going to murder people. Not all Islamic extremists rely on murder and terrorism. It's a dangerous ideology that leads to violence and violent people. They're also a bunch of random citizens who have subscribed to an idea for whatever reason. Nazism is the same. They have killed people in the past and if this ideology is accepted they will kill again. It's a hateful and violent movement. It goes beyond stupidity. If people are joining either of these groups they are joining an ideology that not only condones hate but have violent histories. They see large groups of people as the enemy and that's what makes their entire movements dangerous.

Dragonblade01 posted...
I'm not asking you to respect them. I'm asking you to respect the idea of a world where we try to understand ideas and don't treat people like they're criminals just for holding a different (even if hateful) position. Punish those who act violently and commit actual crimes. Punish the group if you find a clearly organized group of violent terrorists among them. But don't nip ideas in the bud through dismissive rhetoric. If it does anything, it'll only help it spread.


These people turned up in riot gear shouting hateful rhetoric. These people waived the symbol that represented a movement that lead to genocide and some of the most horrific acts in modern history. Anyone who is willingly a part of this movement should be absolutely called out for this. They do not deserve to be debated and they don't deserve any sort of middle ground regardless if they have been violent or not. Being associated with them condones their history.

Debate isn't just to win over the other side. It's to win over everyone else. It's to win over all the people who maybe haven't heard their ideas or were curious about them as a group. It's to strengthen the ideological stability of the country, even if it doesn't necessarily win over the diehards on the other side of the fence.


If Americans can be won over by Nazi protests I'm seriously concerned for you guys.

Dragonblade01 posted...
Admittedly, you could use the fear-mongering and abject hostility approach to stir up hatred for the opposition instead. But I'd rather avoid thought policing and civil war if at all possible.


Not sure why the kiddy gloves need to be on for Nazis to be honest. They're out on the streets preaching hate and indoctrinating people to their cause like any other extremist group. Nobody says this about ISIS, Scientology, Westboro etc.

People who act hateful and disgusting don't deserve respect. That doesn't mean they deserve violence. But that certainly does not mean they deserve respect.

If someone on the fence is willing to jump in a yard full of Nazis I wonder how serious they actually were about fence sitting. There's a long history with that group and their ideals are easy to see.

I agree with the tone, but not the choice of monster. If you're starting a joint universe from scratch, the Mummy isn't the one to begin with. Actually, now that I think about it, it only begged the comparison to the Brendan Frasier films because that's what's most recent in audience's minds. Had they done Frankenstein first and the Wolf Man second, nobody would have expected The Mummy to be anything like the Frasier movies.


That makes sense. Dracula would have worked as a launching pad too. There hasn't really been a traditional creepy Dracula for a long time. Just superhero shit.
