The Game Awards’ Future Class members demand awards show recognize Gaza crisis https://t.co/bATaCsBavC pic.twitter.com/JqxZ7bV9Gi

The white guy in Israel wants us to stop talking about war crimes
I bet this “white guy in Israel” has more Arabic blood coursing through his veins than most people who signed that terrorist sympathizing letter ☺️
Talking down on literally every non-zionist person sure is a thing y'all like doing. It's like you think the people in your weird ethno-state are superior beings to everyone else...
Bruhh the self proclaimed SJW is complaining about the Jooz
Trvth bomb
Lol, lmao
Literally the opposite of reality
all of the "keep politics out of my games" shitters in the comments are the reason why no one takes g*mers seriously
Such an inflated sense of self-importance
"Hey guys, Hamas hot dropped into our Marshmello concert and downed all the unarmed innocent players. That was not very poggers of them, so let's hope Team IDF gets that Victory Royale in Gaza and makes it back to Tomato Town in time for Dino Nuggies n Choccy Milk! GG EZ NO RE"
Trying to imagine the scenario where historians later recall how a statement at a videogame awards show contributed to peace in Israel/Palestine. It's tricky, but perhaps I'm just lacking imagination.
Everyone pretending they care know this is rage bait, right? Platforms like Polygon are going defunct left and right and this is a desperate attempt at staying relevant. Try that "critical thinking" that's constantly boasted about.

We're moving away from religion, but the Church of Wokeness will demand I pray ten Hail Fairys and an Our Two Fathers on my globohomosary before I eat my plate of roaches; and I'll be reminded to act thankful to my Qweeeeen because there are trans qts in Africa who don't have these luxuries (and it's my fault).
I miss so badly the Christian hegemony that told us that everyone who has it worse than we do is cos Jesus loves American and hates commies. Bush and Obama and Trump fricked up not deporting anyone who puts the hammer and sickle in xer bio.

They are literally admitting that they want working people wanting escapism to be poor and miserable by saying that. “We dont want you to have any wealth or power to enjoy things, we want to drag you down and alienate you”

Right? The motte of privilege theory is that everyone should have it and when people don't it sucks and you should be aware of that. But everyone could have escapism in entertainment. There is literally nothing stopping it from happening except these insipid morons whining about privilege. They're smugly dragging everyone down just to spite the huwite male (based).

Reminds me of the old 1930s movie Sullivans Travels.
TL/DR He's a champagne commie producer during the Great Depression, obsessed with making depressing, political movies because the public NEEDS to be informed by him that life sucks. A major plot point is him winding up trapped in a miserable chain gang and watching a dumb comedy during the prison movie night. Only then does he finally grasp that people don't need rich buttholes telling them to think about suffering more, they need a laugh and escapism.
Second TL/DR: These frickers haven't changed in 100 years; we should put them on all chain gangs until they get it.

People genuinely cannot handle having an opposite opinion. Like they believe if there's an rpg where men are hitting women they physically cannot program it in as they believe it should never happen. That's why nearly every rpg made by women or lefties has regular people or s killing specially only monsters. You can straight up tell the s*x of the developer based on who is dying. Like Chained Echoes was made by a moid rightoid. You know how I can tell because in the game one of the peasant characters who you control that works for the princess literally kills an enemy as a show of force because the woman enemy wouldn't tell him what he wanted. Then he stabs her in the thigh to force it. Disco Elysium probably has the most politics of anything and it's an okay game a bit wordy for me but at least it knows it's about politics. Stop trying to make mario trans and shit no one cares.

It's also not explicitly or blindly pro-communist, they go out of their way to portray failures of the communist regime and corruption of the union leadership. Like most pieces of good political art, it puts the pieces in front of you and lets you interpret it through your own experience. Wokies can't handle ambiguity, nuance, or subtlety, they unironically think that because some people misinterpret satire that all art should be taken only at face value and anything short of unambiguous virtue signalling is fascist dogwhistling. This is why they mostly make bad art, despite being overrepresented in arts scenes.

This stuff is so annoying. "I actually need the thing i consume to recognize the highly politicized world news that has been dominating the newsfeed of everyone for the past month."
I have blacklisted anything relating to the middle east on twitter and it's much better. Call me privileged if you want but just because it's a matter of life and death to you doesn't mean it is to me and i've stopped caring what right wingers half the planet away from me are doing.

It's a privilege to be able to dig into every single political issue and have the time, energy, and access to info to be able to form opinions, listen to debates, and then constantly nag every organization you don't control into doing what you want.
Btw which catastrophe are they being awareness to? The one in Ethiopia right?
