Yes. Because it never stays nonviolent. Sure, you may never hurt someone...but you might support someone (such as politicians) who will or polices that will.

Not really.

Say you have a room of 10 white people.

And only ten people can fit in that room.

And you need to add diversity into that room.

By nature, that would mean less white people.

So are you admitting that Islam gets special protections compared to other religions with regard to making fun of it? Because to get your little "gotcha" here you actually need to acknowledge the point I was making first.


What do you feel is an equivalent for Islam that she said here?


Do you believe Islam does or does not get special protection compared to Christianity when it comes to being able to make fun of it publicly?


Islam gets special protection because people tend to die when they make fun of it.

It's a cultural thing related to death and failure. The US is a culture where trial-and-error is accepted and people feel rewarded for overcoming a challenge. The Japanese as a shame culture don't take to failure nearly as well and as such the games were adjusted for those differences.


Didn't know the Japanese were such a fragile people.

I don't like making fun of people in general, so I'm perfectly fine with fat shaming not being cool. But if we're gonna let that happen, height shaming shouldn't be a thing either. Weight is at least something you can control. No amount of dieting or exercise is gonna make me get taller.


Diet does contribute to height.

One of the factors to why humans got taller throughout the ages is better diet.

Obviously this is more important when you are growing.

After 18-20, you're stuck with the height you have by then so no diet will help you there.

I'm cool with diversity in games, I just miss the days when developers would brag about how good their game is for the gameplay, story, graphics...etc instead of bragging about how good their game is for the political stance it takes.

It just seems like devs are putting out mediocre games and using social justice to deflect and/or quell legitimate criticism.


They do it for social media clicks. This kind of thing gets them lots of press from gaming journalists who write articles about how "brave" and "progressive" the devs are. Then those articles get shared around other SJW sites who praise them....and anti-SJW sites who get outraged. It works. It doesn't always translate to sales (as BFV showed) but they keep doing it so it must be worth it.

Why? I don't recall Steve being an issue.


I'm talking about Kaiden


Kaiden was a gay relationship, not the gay relationship. One so-and-so portrayal doesn't cancel out the rest of the good ones. Kaidan romance also played out the same way as Femshep anyway so you can say "the straight relationship was absolutely embarrassing" and it would make just as much sense.
