L it's sexy how u hate the weird robot game let's kiss. i remember watching a let's play of it around the time it came out and even then i thought the imagery was incredibly sus 😐
Oh god it’s not even the IMAGERY it’s literally David saying “there are right and wrong ways to protest uwu” in regards to Literal Slavery like. Ok. I need to break this down. D*vid C*ge will be referred to as David in this.
David, through the gameplay and your choices as Marcus (sidenote too many black characters are getting named Marcus for the love of god pick a different name), essentially says “protesting and fighting for your rights & freedom is Good Only when you do it non-violently and within the comfort of the people in power. It’s Bad when you do Any form of Direct Action, Ever.”
The reason that’s especially bad is because David wants so badly for you to draw parallels from this game to when literal African slaves were being sold and traded in America, and by extension, the civil war. I feel like I shouldn’t...HAVE to explain why these two points of the game are both racist on their own and Extra Racist together! Fun
Like I’m not even EXAGGERATING how racist this game is because if you choose the Red Route the US Government sets up a LITERAL. ANDROID CAMP AND DEATH CHAMBER. ITS SO. FUCKING BAD YOU CANT JUST PUT THESE THINGS IN YOUR VIDEO GAME DAVID.
