With these simple steps, you can come within spitting distance of the United States Supreme Court…in Minecraft

Kotaku hasn't heard that the CIA figured out the loophole

    No. I’m sorry, I understand the frustration - I’m frustrated (and appalled, and horrified, and host of other feelings besides) as well - but no. Encouraging violence against real life figures, no matter how fantastical the violence is, is not morally acceptable. It’s just not.

    It’s not okay when the other side does it - campaign ads with the opposing politician in a bullseye, holding a shotgun and saying they’re ‘going hunting’ for their opponent - and it’s not okay here, either. Just because they do it, doesn’t make it right.

    :LIB: comments are always physically cringe inducing

      Libs in the incoming civil war with the right:

      "Nooo just because they're shooting at us doesn't mean you get to return fire, walk over to them and see if we can come to a reasonable compromise. Violence is never the answer!"

        That scene from the Watchmen movie where the girl puts the iconic flower in the barrel of the soldier's gun and he just blows her away.

        I got to get that as a gif

          It's referencing the Kent State massacre, as well as this photo which was part of the same protests kind of, just elsewhere https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flower_Power_(photograph)

      OMG their follow-up

      Would I object if Kotaku ran a story about ‘how to get President Biden into Minecraft so you can slash him with swords, impale him with tridents, or shoot him with arrows?’ I would. And I wouldn’t expect many conservative readers to care that I was objecting, or why. I’d do it anyway.

      Like they love just laying prostrate and screaming that they are, much as I hate to use the word, cucks.

      Love the correct replies

      I mean, they just sentenced thousands of people to die for the crime of becoming pregnant, but you know, fuck defending ourselves. Can’t stoop to their level.

      The wise man bowed his head solemnly and spoke. There's actually 0 difference between food and bad things. You moron. You imbecile

    how are people getting mad at this? this is the tamest thing imaginable, they are literally saying "take out your frustration by hitting funny looking skins in minecraft", its not even the meme
