Remember that capeshit vidya mod that took out the Pride flags? Turns out it wasn’t a mod! It just enabled the Middle Eastern localization provided by the devs in the game itself!

Weren't they ready to string that modder up? So corporations only into bravery when it's not actually brave, who could have foreseen this.

Hear me out: HalalMods.com, a website ostensibly marketed at Middle Easterners but actually marketed at Western rightoids, which hosts every one of these controversial modpacks.

Oh they do! Blackcels are some of the biggest minorities in Middle Eastern and North African countries, their status either is A. They are discriminated against horribly 1920s Mississippi style, or B. They themselves reject their entire "Black/African" identity altogether and claim to be full-Arabs, like the case of Sudan, where Blackcels LARP as Arabcels so hard that this has lead to Genocide due to them trying to forcibly Arabize ethnic groups who refuse to assimilate to the Arabcel identity.

scream, piss, shit and cry

A consummation devoutly to be wished. I just searched "Spider-man pride" and there's nothing on all of Reddit (except the old story.) It's weird how shit aligns, I'd have a hard time even putting into words why this is hilarious clickbait to rDrama yet taboo (?) for any sub on Reddit to even discuss.

"See, rDrama thinks it's funny when there are witchhunts over stupid shit but actually it was just a twist on fake corporate virtue-signaling, exposed, due to their willingness to capitulate to reactionary cultures. While this makes average Reddittors uncomfortable." WTF am I even talking about.

Redditors are only socialists when it comes to Chick Fil a. As soon as a company they like - Disney, Sony, Ben & Jerry, Twitter, Reddit ofc., etc. - does something bad like abusing workers, filming next to concentration camps, allowing CP on their site, theyre either silent about it or only care for like a few months. Easily forgiven. Yet an independent creator like Jontron can never be forgiven for stuff he said almost a decade ago. And the reason why is because these companies all provide middlebrow capeshit or food or whatever to them that makes them feel like theyre resisting Drumpf while Biden stomps his boot down on them. Its a bit like how Trump grifts his own supporters while stomping on them

Best summary in thread. I believe that if you just magicked the middle east freedom in the US style (speech, religion, booze, etc.) many CONs would be willing to work with the "hating America" "non-christian" things. Because now you can go there and be an annoying Christian at them. But Islam doesn't really work that way in the real world so partial overlap of religious doctrines is not enough to create political alliance.
