Forums - Gaming - Why does Fox News have problems with Flower?

Their spin and agenda is so obvious. I mean, they're sounding alarms over this, but they're okay with things that suit their own far-right agenda?
Now regarding Call of Duty, notice the "anchor" wasn't concerned about kids being exposed to the violence of the game as much as he was concerned that they could be terrorists. The reason? Fox News doesn't mind brainwashing the kids into being good little soldiers. That's their calling, after all, to fight wars in the name of ideals for the rich.
What about all of the games that use currency (including DLC. It uses real currency). No outrage about turning them into good little consumer slaves? And they're crapping themselves over a game that might promote a little green? Oh wow, definitely fair and balanced! /s

Please don't tell Fox News about the following games. They could blow this out of proportion:

The Settlers series (how dare they promote a socialist agenda!)
Command and Conquer: Red Alert (Not only can you play as *gasp* Soviets, you can make them win, too!)
Counter Strike (Came out way before MW2, but you actually play as terrorists (and they can win!))

Don't those games promote colonialism?

I saw it more as you (the government?) telling people what job to take, and nobody making a profit off of any of the goods made. In a conservative world, that's intolerable!

I just...I just...*facepalm*

I want to make a sily or witty comment about the journalistic integrity of Fox News, I want to be clever and say something funny, but I just can't anymore.

Fox news: It's why the terrorists attacked...I'm not entirely sure I disagree with their motives (though I do disagree with their methods)

this is just silly now..

1. it doesnt exlude anyone. i can marry the exact same gender of person as any pther person. i dont have any "right" that others do not.

and what about people that want to marry the cousin or sister, or people that want to marry 2 girls and 2 guys.

 

2. also, you are completely wrong about DADT. before that law gays werent allowed to serve, then Clinton signed into law DADT to allow gays to serve, which they did, and continue to do.

1. It excludes homosexuals, because it's a law that only takes into consideration and benefit heterosexuals. Homosexuals are attracted sexually/emotionally to people of the same sex, so it's pretty obvious that they'd want to marry someone of the same sex. But they can't do theat, because marriage laws exclude them, as they are made (by heterosexuals) to meet the necessities of heterosexuals (thus excluding homosexuals and being discriminatory).

2. No, you're completely wrong about DADT. It did not allow gays to serve, hence why gays were discharged if it was found out they were gay. The law essentially said that gays couold serve if they pretended to not be gay, but if the fact that they were gay was found out by someone, then they'd be discharged (because gays couldn't serve in the military). And there were no punishments for the people who did the 'ask' part either. This was no different then how things were before it (as a gay person could always serve if he/she pretended to be straight and no one found out the truth). DADT didn't change anything (it probably made things worse), hence why I called it a sham law, and essentially an euphanism for institutionalized discrimination. I hope I don't have to repeat myself again regarding this point.

1) i cant marry a man either. the law applies to me as well, so try harder.

also way to ignore, the persucuted people that cant marry cousins or sisters, or 2 wives.

2) now your just showing that you know nothing about DADT. or the history of it, (which at at the time of its passage was praised by gay community, because it allowed them to serve).

so i ask again, what "right" do I have that gays dont. please just tell me.

1. I already explained why it's discriminatory. Just read it over and over and over and over. Maybe you'll get it. I won't be writing the same thing again, worded differently, so maybe you can figure it out. Not my problem if you can't get things.

And stop bringing up irrelevant factors.

2. Considering that gays have been campaigning for years to get DADT repelled, I honestly doubt they ever found it positive. And as I said, anyone with a brain can see that the policy essentially didn't help gays at all, and was just one big euphanism.

I already mentioned 1 right you have that gays don't, and that's whatyou asked.

so, because you dont have an answer to other groups that cant marry other groups, you call it irrelevent. So you think that since a man cant marry a man, they dont have rights that i do, even though i too cant marry a man (therefore we have the same rights), but when it comes to marrying your cousin, it doesnt matter if they cant marry each other. hypocritical much.

its too funny you dont have any facts to back up you silly illogical statements

so, because you doubt something, it makes history untrue. lol.

so, you are basically calling Clinton and all the gay people of yesterday, brainless.

 

So again, your reading comprehension permitting, what rights do i currently have that gays do not? please tell me, im dieing to know (im sure your dying to know this too, you probably hoping that someone else can think of one, since you clearly cannot). try learning something about my country and our laws and recent history, it will serve you well, or just stay silent on topics you know nothing about. either one



To make Fox new happy, this is the type of game you need.

A strategy game where you are managing an oil company. When you need oil from some small Middle East country, you can ask the US military to invade the country and convince the public it's part of the war against terrorism. After invading the country, you get bonus points for building Protestant churches in the countries to convert the masses. Also, you should be able to lobby congress to ease on environmental regulations.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials
