It hasn't been great since Origins honestly. The identity politics is just the cherry on top of this dumpster fire.


Origins was all about gathering different groups and races and setting aside political differences to fight the darkspawn.

Centrist doesn't mean someone who thinks the right answer is always in the middle. It can be someone who has both left-wing and right-wing ideals and doesn't 90% line up with either side.

For example, I consider myself a centrist. But there are almost no issues where I think the answer is in the middle.

For example, abortion rights, LGBTQ+ rights, climate change. The left is clearly right on these issues. No meeting in the middle here.

Gun rights, strong borders, strong private sector. The right is clearly right on these issues. No meeting in the middle here.

They bought them.

Hi-point is based out of Mansfield, OH.
As for drugs, most were smuggled in from South America.


Do you think the CIA did not funnel drugs into black communities? Because this is well documented.


he probably thinks Black people are why his anti depressants are his lifeline


Honestly he strikes me as someone who thinks racism has nothing to do with black people's current place in society and think it's entirely poor decisions and a "bad culture". Like "after the CRA, everything was fine, blacks are just lazy and bring everything on themselves." I'm not saying personal responsibility isn't a factor, but it's not the entire problem. For example, personal responsibility does not help a law-abiding gun-owning black man when a cop shoots him for looking like a suspect.

Why would white people want a white only space? They are not marginalized. Obviously they can have one, but their reason would not be sound and likely be steeped in prejudice.

Once again, white people can't let black people enjoy something by themselves.


How would you react if a white person made that statement (with the races reversed) about black people going to a hockey game? Would be okay with it, or would you think it's racist?


It would be racist because white people have historically been exclusionary to black people.

Black people didn't choose to have black-only spaces, it was decided for them.

These women are choosing to have a black (female) only space. Is it misguided? Maybe. But at least it's their choice. And their reasons are at least "good" (escaping marginalization and racism).

Calm down, Brother Frisbee. I was just poking fun at how these sistahs are engaging in a lot of stereotypical white behavior.

I just think it's sad that they are basically cutting and running. This type of passion would be put to good use in America. They could ascend to government positions and be the change we need. Giving up on the USA is a sad idea.

Black Panther's portrayal of Afro-futurism is what makes it special and standout.

The costuming, set design, done in this unique manner has literally never been done before.

That's what gives more attention than the average superhero movie.

Infinity War by itself makes no sense without watching most of the past MCU films. This hurts it. And while it looks great, space is not a new setting that's been overlooked in western cinema.

That joke is not offensive. I decided to read the article because I didn't believe he got kicked out for such an inoffensive joke, and it turns out I was right:

The news articles Ive read give the impression that Patel told some controversial jokes that caused PC outrage, but the performance was just a trainwreck. While Patel started with strong laughs, he soon hit a controversial joke that earned mixed reactions. Instead of moving on, Patel warned us that hes from an older generation (this guy is only 32), and then delivered the usual condescending and presumptuous spiel about how we need to learn about the real world. I thought, Relax, you just got on stage. Patel presented himself as arrogant and almost contemptuous toward the audience he was meant to entertain. Later, he even said, Well, Im already paid, setting the tone of his performance.

The atmosphere throughout the remainder of the routine was uncomfortable with a few occasional laughs. While its normal in stand-up to pick an audience member to dialogue with, Patel just kept returning to the same girl to ask her painfully drawn out questions, as if he were mining material for a routine he had not prepared. He asked another audience member personal questions about their parents in a room full of strangers. To me, his routine was strangely obsessed with Black people, my favorite part being when he questioned why there was so much online outrage that Black actors werent nominated at the Oscars in 2016, but not for Asian actors. Patels anti-Blackness jumped out: The hashtag was #OscarsSoWhite, not #OscarsNotBlack.


And there it is.


Yep. Yet another Asian jealous of the Black man.

Because DICE acted like idiots and instead of pulling the correct PR move of saying they felt like going in a less serious direction or something, they called everyone bigots who didn't know history and said please don't buy the game.


This exactly all they had to do was say it's our own vision or an alternate version they just couldn't resist attacking and insulting the people paying their bills though. Companies are shitting money away cause their employees need to virtue signal and shit on their own fans. Same thing as starwars telling over half your customers to fuck off buisiness 101 in 2018.


They value social media reputation more than their customers. They probably knew reacting that way would get articles written about "brave DICE devs call out bigoted gamers."
