I focus on the political takes because that's the important and interesting discussion. I don't give a single fuck about The Last of Us 2, I don't even intend to play it. What I do care about is people turning this forum into another pool of reactionaries. Yes, you can have a nuanced and reasonable critique of any game, but if you come out with the "get woke go broke" take I'm going to focus on that because that's the worldview that needs to be fought like the plague. 

And I swear to god, if you say ironic one more time, Alanis Morissette, I'm going to smack you with a dictionary. 

But you see a few go woke go broke takes and you act like everyone and everything is all about that,and you are even highlighting it and making it a bigger problem then it is by behaving like that imo.

Bold:

"characterized by often poignant difference or incongruity between what is expected and what actually is"

I'm responding to what I care to respond to when it comes to this game. I have never said that's the only take against this game, what I was responding to was someone saying "well now let's see if Jim gets called a bigot" which implies that every person that is against TLOU2 is being called a bigot and, by extension, all responses that a person's take is bigoted are mistaken. That's not what I've seen and I explained the factors that correlate with someone's take being taken as bigoted. That's what I care to respond to because that's what I care about. 

Here, just for you so you can stop worrying about takes I've never made:

NOT EVERY OPINION AGAINST TLOU2 IS BIGOTED!!  SOME ARE THOUGH AND THAT'S THE SHIT I CARE TO DISCUSS!
