Fallout's subtle racism
« on: March 25, 2011, 05:15:07 pm »

I never noticed it before (:o) but aren't we mostly all white caucasian characters in this game?
Aside from the mutated monstruosity excuses made up by white gamemakers who felt they had to include racial diversity in their game, yet failed to include on niggers and chinks?

Hmm...

Just wait till 3d models are done. Then you'll be able to customize your char.

First: warning for you, for using inappropriate words.
Second: There are black people and chinese people aswell.  ::)

Those inapropriate words were used intentionally within the style of text I wrote.
But my apologies.

maybe it's racism TOWARDS white people, the game developers are trying to say "white people screw everything up"

With this logic you could say that most of the games include sublte racism.

Nevertheless I admit that devs (and most of the players) might have some kind aversion to people wearing blue pyjamas in public.

Hmm...

Intentially you say. What you do intentially, is a expression of subtle racism by using racial slurs, covering it up by feigning criticism.

It's probably cus it exists, and so many people are afraid of it... ::)

There is nothing wrong with racism from my point of view.

It's no different than calling a guy who looks country a hick because of the way he talks to calling a black man a *OMGWTFCENSOREDBBQ* because he's sitting on the porch drinking kool-aid.

Yet it's ok to make fun of white people...  It's just those "minorities" that need "Special treatement".

It sickens me.  What America has become specifically, and that it affects 2238.

Fallout is in an alternate dimension where "the 50s" lasted until 2077.
Then got blowded up.


Yet the buildings don't have separate water fountains, toilets, entrances, etc.

Fail.

In Fallout, the gangsters and slum lords are white..

In Fallout, the sheriff is a cool black dude.

In Fallout, the chinese people are like modern chinese people, smart, powerful, cunning, and have bad luck when it comes to getting good leadership

In Fallout, canadia got shit on...
