I know a segment are upset over the marketing of the game and how it plays into the rhetoric that the more extreme left have been espousing over the last little while.

That white supremacists are bad? Is that supposed to be a controversial position?

Nazis = bad is somehow "rhetoric that the more extreme left have been espousing"? interesting.

Trump supporters have apparently lost their minds and all sense of what is right.

I mean how hard is it to simply say I'm a Repub and I hate Nazis and I like the idea of a video game that let's you kill Nazis.

Republicans aren't necessarily Trump supporters, in fact a lot of them don't approve of Trump these days.

I mean Joey's statement is technically correct. If it were 2 neo-Nazi's that were upset, then that would constitute plural supporters of Donnie's that were upset.

Yes imagine attributing the tiny minority opinion of some Leftists to all liberals.

Here would be some headlines:

"Liberals are anti-science about GMOs"
"Liberals hate vaccines"

Get the idea?

i thought the wolfenstein 2 marketing was really dumb and it kind of soured me on the game a little bit.

it uses low hanging political fruit to pander to the lowest common demominator. dumb people on the right went nuts because they thought this was another part of a grand conspiracy from the liberal media to make their dumbass views become equivocal with Nazi views. dumb people on the left viewed this as another chance to virtue signal how they are part of the Good People because they haaaaaaate Nazis (as if this is a hotly debated issue by the general public).

either way, the marketing had morons on both sides circlejerking, and meanwhile I barely saw any actual features of the game advertised. it was just really obnoxious imo

He's in The New Colossus.

What's the point then?

That people should market more poorly to protect the feelings of those offended?

Isn't that like the exact opposite of what the right preaches?

Hey, I heard from high sources that there are some fine people who are Nazis.

(and in their next breath want to condemn anyone who kneels during a football game, THATS what gets them mad)
