Lots of reviewers shitting on it saying "I don't hate it because it's political, I hate it because it's a bad game!"

Meanwhile all their top-voted comments are pushing DEI conspiracy theory and Great Replacement bullshit

FWIW I have no desire to play the game myself, but anyone who has a comments section full of that shit and doesn't think long and hard about what kind of audience they've cultivated is a Nazi in all but name

    Duh. Hating initiatives to level the playing field for oppressed and marginalized groups clearly means you’re in favor of keeping them oppressed and marginalized. It means you’re a bigot

      Maybe they don't like they way it's implemented or maybe they believe it won't actually level the playing field at all..

      Obviously there are people out there who are racist but do you think an initiative like DEI will change anything about that? All it does is annoy regular people with "education" to not be racist.. Yeah we know, that's how most of us have been operating..

      Stop assuming the worst of every one you don't agree with. You'll get nowhere like that. Unfortunately pretty much everyone in the US seems to be doing that.

        If you associate with Nazis, people will associate you with Nazis. If the people complaining about DEI don't want to be associated with Nazis, they should be a bit more hesitant to share spaces with Great Replacement conspiracy theorists and transphobes.

          And you're the one that decides who's a nazi that the rest of us can't be seen with? Give me a fucking break.

            "You call anyone you don't like a Nazi" is quite a take in the context of me discussing people who believe in a literal Nazi conspiracy theory (Great Replacement).

            I'm not going to waste any more time on you. You are either a fascist trying to Trojan Horse your ideas into this space, or you're so credulous toward them that you might as well be.
