Brutal. If Wikipedia don’t fuck with you just delete yourself off the internet.

Yes make it public.

No real reason not to.

The fediverses biggest problem is that people don’t use enough Linux. If that is not the most white middle class problem I don’t know what is.

Why do people think the fediverse is not filled with majority white people?

Of all nuclear powers France is top of my list to actually use nuclear weapons first.

Never fuck with the French.

They lost 1 war after centuries of successful military campaigns and now people associate them with the white flag. They were a super power. There’s a reason everyone on the planet knows what a croissant is.

It was the Wii version of Mario 64 not the N64 version.

Justin Bieber confirmed Command and Conquer nerd.

Yeah she’s half black.

I also thought that Sandy was brown but that was a mistake the closet to a brown character is Gus but I’m not even sure that’s the case.

I’ve played the game.

A lot.

As I said, I like Stardew but this was always my impression of it.

If CA wasn’t solely responsible for everything in the game you’d be able to make some concessions about this but this game is (IMO) a reflection of their world view. Consciously or subconsciously they’ve written it into the game.

Again, it’s fine I don’t mind playing around in one guys idealised society (Demetrius quest line aside), I wish it wasn’t as mono as it is but the game play and lore are still good enough.

Well for starters it’s completely capitalistic and supports the idea of work = reward. Big business is bad but small business is good.

But socially, it stereotypes issues and what little different cultures there are.

There are no Asian people. There is one black character whose first quest is to farm a melon. Seriously.

The person experiencing homelessness is the noble savage who doesn’t mind not having a home, it’s his choice.

The alcoholic is saveable and finds the error in their ways.

The abandoned child gets adopted and it’s a happy ending.

There’s no crime.

The teacher is a young white woman.

The mayor is an old white man.

The doctor is white man.

The shop owners are a white man and two white women.

The blacksmith is white.

The town failure who lives in a trailer is saved by the player by getting a house which solves their problems. They are also a euphemism for white trash because putting a ghetto in Stardew would have been a bit too on the nose.

It’s a middle class white person who works in IT idealised society (I.e. concerned apes) where there are simple cause and effect solutions to complex problems. I.e. a conservative ideology.

I like Stardew as much as the next person but I am not going to be shocked when Concerned Ape rebuffs attempts at him to declare his position on trans issues.

If you pay attention to a lot of the undertones in Stardew valley it’s clear (IMO) that Concerned Ape is conservative.

I like the game but I’m always surprised that people think Stardew is a leftist/liberal paradise because it allows same sex relationships.

Meh. Honestly I’m glad it will all end.

Everything is pointless and nothing matters. Eventually.
