The Real Gamers of Chudsville spent all this time complaining about non-issues like protagonists that weren't cishet white men when they should have realized that, yes, Orange Man really is bad. The right's culture war BS was always a wedge issue to keep their base voting for them out of fear of trans people or DEI or whatever the latest boogeyman is, all so they could invoke economic policies that, one way or the other, is going to screw everyone. If Dumbass-in-Chief's trade war blows up the price of games, we're going to be begging for the good old days of $70-80 games. "DoN't MeSs WiTh GaMeRs!" Well, they're being messed with right now in the worst way. This wasn't some business decision that may or may not have had a good reason for being implemented. This is being done by an egotistical, bullying prick who clearly doesn't understand trade, economics, or even basic fucking math, who has never known a day of want in his sorry, spoiled life (he's clearly never done most mundane things the rest of us do routinely), and who operates under the delusion that the U.S. has what it needs to be 100% self-sufficient and can somehow thrive entirely on its own.
Hopefully more reasonable voices will prevail and these pointless, needless, asinine, innumerate tariffs go away, because right now Morons Are Governing America.
