Current Events > Today's Liberals are yesterday's Christians in terms of complaining about

(+) Yeah! (+)

video game content.

The sad part is companies actually cave into liberalism and yet no one listened to Christians back in the day.

What makes companies actually care about Liberals think?

They don't even buy these games. Fucking christ

yeah, my jimmies are rustled. I just can't believe people actually listen to liberals on Resetera

Gaming is becoming kind of shit anyways but yeah it sucks
---

Every game I bought this year, there was a thread on ResetEra where liberals complained the game was "problematic"

These people think everything is problematic. And they will continue to find problematic things within games even if you censor them to placate their shitposting.

I remember people caving to Christians quite a lot actually.

It's not so much annoying that they have an opinion, it's annoying that anyone listens. It's like if a young child was the boss of its parents and just lived off root beer floats then died, minus the dying unfortunately

I've made a similar comparison before.

They always hated how preachy Christians were about stuff and how they were constantly down their throats, and they turn around and do the same thing.

I'll be waiting to hear your name on the news. I doubt you'll be capable of getting an impressive death tally, though.

Can't remember any games specifically but they definitely influenced TV.

There was also Sinead O'Connor who had her career ruined when she ripped up a photo of the pope.

Not as much as you think. You have to understand that a lot of this shit you see online is just fake outrage to get people riled up. Stop falling for this shit. It's a way to divide the Country and make us all angry at each other. Yes, there is clearly crazy SJWs out there just like there are crazy racist people, but a lot of the stuff you hear on places like here with message boards or on social media like Twitter, a lot of them are just trolling bots that just want to join a horde of opinions

i love when people always bring up Mario in these situations..He's an italian character with an italian accent....That's about where the "stereotype" ends. He's not at all an over the top caricature of an italian in an offensive way. never was and never has been. never will be.

Milkman is a joke lmao

How's he being an SJW?

All he does is complain and get triggered about others. Thats literally all everyone complains about when it comes to SJWs.

Hes complaining about literal cosmetics in a game as if it actually affects anything. Theres no reason to complain.

That's not even true. He likes spaghetti and pasta, has a stereotypical Italian mustache, his accent is a fake parody and is voiced by a non-Italian.

How could he be any more of an Italian stereotype?

Based on what? The guy has only been seen eating mushrooms.

He falls asleep during Mario 64 and mentions them by name.

And in the new one he names literally every pasta

This is the horseshoe theory in effect. Two opposite ideologies, when taken to the extreme, begin to resemble each other, because they both want to enforce and control things to the point of censorship.

How about this. 2017

Anyone who doesn't know Mario loves pasta and spaghetti doesn't play the games, I don't know what to say.

Everything this dude says is a parody of Italians, that was always the gag with Mario.

Bullshit. Not even hoth could name literally every pasta when he was making alts based on pasta, so I doubt Nintendo would have bothered to look up every single type.

I swear they went thru nearly every kind of pasta.

I thought it was awesome.

Absolutely. Look at the shit the hardcore right was slinging at video games in the 90/00s and what the hardcore left is currently attacking them for in the 10s.

It's tough to remember a specific game because it was just so common. The whole Mortal Kombat affair brought in censorship for damn near anything with the slightest amount of blood.

It was the same for music and movies, too. They weaponized the ratings system.
