The only logical answer I have for why people would yellow-face themselves while rage-hacking in a new game is because there is a group intentionally agitating this issue for political purposes.
It's not like they're trying to pretend to be good. They are blatant rage hacking with the intention of letting everyone know that they're doing it. There is no logical answer for this other than agitators.
This is the easiest thing in the world to do. You ragehack in a game using a Chinese name while constantly posting in communities about how the game is filled with Chinese hackers and how they need to be region locked. Then you also post all your race-theory bullshit for how they're predisposed culturally-or-otherwise to "cheating".
And because it damages the TREATS gamers react viscerally to it. They're incredibly easy to manipulate.
Right but this is one of many reasons we have political agitators using something like this. It's a segue that primes people's way of thinking for other things.
This same agitation occurs in certain other topics. For example Staffordshire Terriers or "pitbulls". The right agitates that issue like fuck because establishing the mindset "some breeds of dogs are simply predisposed to being vicious and violent" is a means of establishing a reactionary mindset in people that can be reapplied to other topics. Such as "some breeds of humans are simply predisposed to being vicious and violent".
It's a reoccurring form of agitation that occurs that is used as a segue or primer outside of the primary race-theory context that sets people up for accepting race-theory later on.
To a lesser extent it's also the same way evil races in fantasy fiction are used and why the right adores those settings. Evil races are convenient for colonialism and genocide... And believing that some races are evil in stories sets people up for believing it outside of stories too.
All of these things are connected by the same thread.
