Another badge to pander to the woke to hide the issues and greed

And this is the massive proof of they don't really care, it is just a fake move. https://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/n4wwav/respawn_employee_brags_about_apex_legends/ It seems in Japanese...

And with that things have gotten into toxic territory, time for a lock.

As ever, AHQ isn't the place for political discussion, though most people in this thread have been trying to keep things civil.

I agree with you on the first point, it is an option but when it happens it still causes unnecessary irritation unless everyone is of the same mind

But they do have political implications assuming we live in the same country. Aside from the examples I gave earlier, the left has tied race into several of their campaign strategies. I got this one from a quick google search, in the 4th paragraph it mentions Black Californians specifically: hrw.org/news/2021/04/09/us-congress-advances-slavery-reparations-bill

And here's an article of how congress is addressing the second issue, also from a quick search: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/22/us/politics/senate-anti-asian-hate-crimes.html

Given that they are tying race specifically into legislation it's hard to argue it isn't political

@Topherrrrrrr First of all, racism/bigotry isn't political. 2nd, highlighting racism as being bad is not virtue signalling, it is being a good human. 3rd, as one race of people, * sapiens, we have a moral imperative to call out bigotry and hatred in all its forms. I can't believe I have to explain that. Seriously. But it makes sense as you consider racism/bigotry as being equal to saying something about trump....
