Remember when "Gamegate" was still a protofascist reactionary movement recruiting boys to both victims of grifting and alienation, and victimizers of others?
I was admittedly more conservative days, but even then I was always really confused about how it wasn't a dog whistle.
Don't even remember the affair or whatever shit that initiated it but once I heard 'ethics in gaming journalism's I didn't know what the fuck anyone was talking about
Fun Lenin fact: he actually got mummified because of the worldwide King Tut craze that was going on at the time as the result of the discovery of his tomb. Even Pravda ran frequent articles about it, and after Lenin died in 1924 the Soviets cashed in on it and mummified him - in a remarkable amateurish fashion, since nobody had been mummified in Russia for centuries prior.
I've literally never seen someone get mad because a regressive liked a diverse PC. It's always people upset that there are diverse PCs to begin with, lashing out at people celebrating representation.
To be fair, most male characters have equally unrealistic looks. They've got more muscle in their necks than I got in my calf and can take gunshots to the face and lose 5 hp. Not that objectification and sexualization of women in games are not real issues though.
I remember when Final Fantasy 7 was coming out, they actually made charts showing the reduction in boob size for Tifa Lockhart, and then blamed it on woke
I can't believe he would say that! I am literally shaking rn
I'm never buying a game from him again.
I always thought it was Karl "Cultural" Marx who said this

goes for movies too
This is why he got mummified, you know to really stick it to hard working fork lift drivers trying to make ends meet

Bwah I would totally rock a Live, Laugh, Lenin wine glass holder.
Love how people think gamers hate female main characters but those same people get mad at gamers liking characters like Lara Croft.

Just one of many examples
Welcome to the entirety of PoliticalMemes
Who the fuck are those people you imagined?
It's cognitive dissonance. Getting angry over game with female protagonist is just a loud minority anyways.
