    I can’t believe you can accurately trace the alt right directly back to people mad at her videos about games.

    What a stupid timeline.

      Problem is: she wasn't exactly good herself... but her comments were tame beyond measure.

      They were tame and people still beat her up for them.

      And it spawned a lot of ultra-right and alt-right people too.

            Normally I am the “technically correct is correct and therefore good” kinda guy, but yeah. I’ve encountered the type of reactionary thought you refer to. Using valid, albeit simple, logic chains while being as obtuse as possible. It’s very frustrating.

            Side note: I always viewed the nun motif in the Hitman games as tying into the theme of 47 lacking a relationship with his mother. I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts as to whether this is off base or not.

        The Americans wouldn't last ten seconds if Charlie Hebdo got translated into English. The closest I can think of to a left-wing equivalent of stonetoss.
