I’m just saying it takes away from the current issue which is black lives. It’s like going to a methadone clinic and complaining about your addiction to weed.
......yup
All lives matter - black, white etc _/
Telling real racists they are idiots _/
Saying politics shouldn’t be pushing in video games, especially ones directed at kids and especially one as controversial as blm _/
Being spoken to differently and treated different because we are white. _/
A class war, poor is poor no matter what color. Poverty _/
Where slavery originated from _/
Race shouldn’t matter in good vs evil _/
We are all equal and brothers/sisters. We can be proud no matter what color we are _/
To you these aren’t current issues? If you disagree with anything I said it says more about you. Ignorant and arrogant? To me that’s whoever looks over all the problems we all face and single people out, it almost sounds racist. You think it isn’t real? White people are reminded almost daily we are trash
Anyway I’m deleting this soon. Like I said politics don’t belong in or near games. Just checking I wasn’t crazy

Not crazy but like Will Smith said in I, Robot. “Does being the last sane man on Earth make you crazy? Cuz if it does, then maybe I am.”

Of course it isn’t racist, but it’s also missing the point dude. BLM doesn’t imply other lives don’t matter. The whole point is to draw attention to injustice and brutality specifically focused at people of color for hundreds of years. It isn’t even inherently political. It’s human rights, and treating others with dignity. Should human rights be a left wing, right wing thing? Unfortunately this country is so utterly fucked we can’t even have a pandemic without it becoming political…

I get what you are saying but I think the point I made is being missed, this isn’t peaceful protests going on man and what kicked it all off isn’t right, nobody should die at the hands of police unjustified. Even the above example of me complaining because something happened to someone else, the hypocrisy is almost laughable and select police are out of control at times but let’s not pretend black people are getting erased in the masses at the hands of the police. That’s just not true what so ever. It’s racist to say white lives matter, even though it was said in the UK for people that were killed by an immigrant, and all lives matter is stupid because it takes something away from black lives matter? That’s a bit of a stretch considering there are peoples piggybacking peoples grievance to loot, vandalise and kill. More to the point I said it and aimed at more at they shouldn’t be putting this message into video games especially ones aimed at kids. I’m not the most articulate so I don’t sugar coat anything but I read up on enough to know it isn’t as black and white
I respect your opinion and anybody else’s, what I said comes from the furthest away from hate or spite. It’s a genuine opinion on people getting shut down for not following the pushed ideology. Look through history and tell me anyone it reminds you of
Their is also a history of false narratives pushed with this sort of thing in the past.
I don’t think I missed your point. Saying “all lives matter” isn’t racist, it’s simply missing the point. Should you be called names and labeled a racist? Of course not. People need to stop using the word racist like it doesn’t mean anything. Cancel culture needs to get the fuck out. Should kids see messages about human rights in games, tv, etc… ? What does that hurt? Kids are the future and will help clean up the previous generations bullshit.
Black lives matter is shady man, even people of color point this out. Kids aren’t mature enough to think long and hard on these things and research, you are basically indocternating kids. Do I want my kid to think its OK to lie, steal and kill? People have genuine grievance like I said, what we are seeing isn’t justice. People losing jobs for not falling into line? Freedom of opinion is dead. Freedom is an dilusion at this point, probably always was
-sit here in france. Me and my friends watch America burns and laugh-
Fun fact about america. That country is not the mirror of the world but a shitty and distorted reflection. What’s happening will never concern me or my friends. Tho good luck btw that. Trump and the Corona

Let’s figth because of the pastbinstead of fighting for the futur of our species x’)

I agree 100% mate. Scotland is much the same. All distracting from the real issues, real racists can’t be tolerated, the current times the most racism I see isn’t against people of color

I hate to be that guy, but it seems the Black Lives Matter movement has turned into the Black Lives are Better movement as of recently with people being beaten for being white during these protests. Some victims include women, children, and old men. It’s sad that black men and women are being killed unlawfully, but going about it this way doesn’t move your movement forward it just makes it look bad. MLK enforced that every protest needed to be peaceful or your message would be lost in the violence. I believe this is exactly what is happening now.

Unfortunately, we live in a world where socio-political-economical agendas are pushed forward under the disguise of equality, tolerance, and fairness.
I also find it interesting that most of the people very vocal about tolerance are often very intolerant :)
At the end of the day, despite having my own opinions on many subjects, I prefer keep them to myself…I’ve seen people that were long-time friends parting away over a silly discussion on ice-cream flavours…
