The Hate U Give was a great movie, moving and useful in making people empathetic to the struggles of the black Americans. It’s not patronizing and doesn’t present things in a manichaean way. The intersection gang violence x police brutality is well presented.

Congrats. You succeeded. You pushed Japanese developers to “westernize” their games. This is the ultimate form of cultural appropriation. Remember that forcing developers to adapt to “progressive” western societal norms was always part of the plan. Controlling content, censoring Art in the name of neopuritanism.

“we, as a society, are going to need to figure out how to deal with them as a whole” This way of talking is so disturbing. So authoritarian. This’s exactly what many in GamerGate were fighting, this holier-than-thou rationale that some people, gaming the system for their own benefits, were displaying.

“Let me up my hit piece about @elonmusk because he criticized us” The media is always reacting the same way when criticized:
- dismiss critic as ignorant
- dig to find old hit pieces
- write new hit pieces
- wait for overreaction of the critic
- will use overreaction in new hit pieces, now ad hominem (likely qualifying critic as sexist, etc...)
