    What the modern will tell you is that all that work of removing POC is nOt PoLiTIcAL. And the justification is also not political, including the baffling line "white feminists lowering birth rates." All because he got triggered seeing a black person in a video game act like a normal guy and be treated like a normal guy.

      Imagine mustering the will and effort to remove whole video game characters from the game including rallying up all new voice talent all because you're triggered seeing a black person. Good, fucking, lord.

      100% of people who bring up "white birth rates" are way, way more racist than they think they are portraying to the world.

    I envision detention centers made to look exactly like their neckbeard nest where those that can't be rehabilitated will spend their lives editing videogame assets and movie trailers.

      And they only have access to an intranet populated by bots they can argue with.

      This is how I think we should imprison billionaires. Just put them all in a Truman show town and let them go wild. All the numbers are fake and they can be used as an example of extreme narcissism.

    Um acktually although it's not explored much, the latter half of the 20th century in the Fallout timeline was generally one of comparative peace and progress with things going to shit in the 21st century so there's no real reason an alternate civil rights or feminist movement couldn't have existed - even if they probably would have looked different from those movements in our timeline. Fucking fake gamer boys not even knowing the lore smh my head :expert-shapiro:

    :yikes:

    I guess they're going to mod every Fallout game to retrofit segregated toilets and water fountains too? Because, you know, none of that exists in any of the pre-Great War built environment...

    Gamers act like real freaks about Nazeem and Preston specifically and a lot of lib gamers get really uncomfortable if you point this out.

      Nazeem is a bourg who specifically acts like a dick, people disliking him is intended design.

      those old videos about killing him alot/repeatedly/many copies of i do think are excessive and indicative of different reasons. Preston Garvey on the other hand is meant to be a likeable boyscout so its much more :fry:

        Preston is affable but people grow to dislike him since he gives the annoying radiant quests that are very hard to get rid of

        Brutalizing Nazeem and Preston in various in game and modded ways are funnee Bethesda community memes so people in the community don't want to consider that some of the people doing the 'obliterating Nazeem with the enhanced gore mod' video posts they laughed at might be the same people who created or downloaded the Nazeem lynching mod
