Why is casual racism/sexism more accepted in video games than other forms of media (these days)?

Lol at the terrible tags on these blog posts

oh, for the days when mountain dew sponsorship was a distant dream and gaming events were sponsored by bawls and jolt

and by sponsored I mean they'd send a free case

BG u don't follow @CokeEsports??

a shameful oversight which i assure u i have now rectified

Good job, man!

luv2interact with #brands online about #gaming

two angry-sounding men in their 30s spitting into their headsets and a half dozen tweens who are screaming

Ideas for ILX

sorry but I can't get past "I think I'm at the objective"

"is that my man hannity!?"

This is what they want to turn gaming into ... people enjoying themselves.

this has to be a parody account... surely

this fkn guy

he is remarkably stupid

Next week's tweet is gonna be

"@JamesADamore
I am now in the kkk"

wouldn't want to be moralizing the KKK

We don't have to give online Nazis the attention they crave imo

Like I'm all for exposing Nazis but this guy is looking for a social media influencer career as an aggrieved racist I don't need to see his shitty face

I couldn't read all of this in one go. Gamer culture needs to be cremated.

Fuck these idiots forever

did people do this shit on usenet? no I'm not searching google groups

good work bethesda.

i just can't process the thought that there's a group of people out there, posting presumably from some form of western democractic society, for whom the idea of villainising the nazis is beyond the pale

what the actual fuck

seem to recall this wouldn't be the first time in US history where being anti-Nazi is regarded as a bad thing

I don't even like the Wolfenstein stuff that much and yet this still may be enough to first day buy it as a fuck you

spending money on things you don't like is the most american form of protest

wolfenstein: the new order is one of my favourite games of the last few years, will enjoy playing the sequel while savouring the thought that nazi snowflakes are getting all bent out of shape about it

why not a multiplayer choose your sides battle royale mode?

I honestly can't get over how stupid this is

look, adam's idea is not THAT bad

hahahaha

next let's find out what a nazi thinks of schindler's list.

who the fuck cares what they think? did we interview them when the last 10 Wolfenstein games came out?

now we have these stories actually giving them more of a media presence. how is that helping?

the idea is not that these tweets show us what nazis think about wolfenstein

the idea, i think, is that these tweets show us how many unassuming nazis there are out there

ingenious marketing campaign tbf.

Wow

in 2017, it's a bold move to take a stand against nazis

Look at the comments at any news article about the Wolfenstein ad campaign and you'll quickly see that it IS actually a bold move to take a stand against Nazis in 2017. which is all kinds of pathetic and scary.

using a chaingun and power armor against nazis irl isn't suggested, but I'm not discouraging it

xp, that was what i meant!
