Remember that capeshit vidya mod that took out the Pride flags? Turns out it wasnโ€™t a mod! It just enabled the Middle Eastern localization provided by the devs in the game itself!

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
