A 'redskin' is the scalped head of a Native American, sold, like a pelt, for cash: 50 pounds for adult male scalps; 25 for adult female scalps; 20 for scalps of boys and girls under age 12. These bloody scalps were known as “redskins” — the most offensive name one could ever call a Native American by EndlessSunflowers in whatever

Didn't someone conduct a poll and find out that Native Americans almost unanimously do not give a fuck about this? Personally I don't care if they keep the name or not, I haven't given a shit about the NFL in 21 years.

I thought it was excessive when I stopped watching. I can only imagine it's gotten much worse since then.

I'm bouncing between here and ruqqus. Sometimes I go to reddit for something that doesn't have a community here yet but I usually I take the time to voice an actual unpopular opinion while i'm there. It feels like a weight off my chest like I have somewhere better to be and reddit is no longer the prettiest girl at the party. Reddit is a dog that's going to end up going home alone but not before she tries to cockblock all her better looking friends.

Democrat Senator Bob Menendez even denied the existence of such violence.

Interesting since there's an actual body count.

I've revived r/BanBigMouth here on SaidIt. It's insane that Reddit banned a subreddit dedicated to exposing a cartoon that sexualizes children. I'm taking mod applications. by [deleted] in whatever

It's not even just the story being bad. It destroys what was good about the first game and then forces you into the shoes of the character that destroyed it and begs you to empathize with her. No thanks. The story does fit within the universe because it is a brutal universe but that doesn't make it a good story to tell. They could have gone many directions but chose this and then try to force the player to agree with their choice. It's insulting to the player and then the fact that you're forced to beat the shit out of the character you've already come to care about using the new (somehow yoked in an apocalypse) character removes player agency and gives it to the writer to satisfy his weird gross fetish. At least with a lets play I can enjoy the commentary from the lets player.

That's really vague. What reality are you talking about?

I just watched a lets play instead. I was never going to buy it after the leaks came out but watching it on youtube allowed me to still enjoy it without having to suffer through the awful story.

I hate the fact that people on reddit feel the need to address each other as random stranger. It feels like some "lol, i'm so qUiRkY!!!111!!!1!!" cringe every time. In fact, now that I think about it a lot of the things most people on reddit do make me cringe.
