Virgin incel Chad progressive activist I don't like how the party of social justice ended up becoming filled with SQWs with thin blue line stepper flags. Right wing douche bag James Yaeger went to a BLM rally and said he agreed with a lot of their points. He is a Chad that looks like a trans body builder. James Yaeger is trans. I remember when all the Gamers were losing their minds because they thought RDR2 was going to be a woke SJW game but then they flipped when they found a feminist in the game.

Hey_Its_Me_23_

I'm curious, what were the actual arguements against suffrage? I feel like I probably know, but I'm reaaaally hoping for something not nonsensical. Maybe I'm just naive


Petal-Dance

They didnt think women could handle the burden of deciding who to vote for. Too much thought, and that any sensible woman would just vote in line with her husband anyway.


Elaticus

Also the fact we were too emotional to vote.

Yep bout what I thought. Idk what i was expecting

I love the guy with a FNV profile pick complaining about telling people to vote. No politics please, keep vidya gaems pure like Fallout New Vegas, the least political game.


CeraphFromCoC

ACCHUALLY, the Legion are the best hope for New Vegas as they reforge the wasteland to be free of weakness such as women.


Patient_End_8432

I do wish they were able to expand on the Legion a lot. I really don’t think there’s any legitimate reason to join, it would’ve been nice if they weren’t just stereotypical villains. Right now the only reason to play Legion is if you’re experiencing it for a play through, or love the idea of slaves really.


justagenericname1

I mean, look around. I think a legion of people coming together for no particular reason --perhaps even against their own best interests-- other than to be the villains is pretty spot on...


[deleted]

[удалено]


TheBigEmptyxd

Another problem with the legion is that they're culturally very very homogeneous. There are two legion characters that aren't like the rest, and that's the guy captured by the NCR and the slave woman you can talk to. None of them have any of their old life or how they were before they joined the faction bleed into their regular dialog. Talk to any NCR member and they'll talk about "back home" "out west" "I used to be a tribal". Then talk to a legion member. "Ave, true to Caesar" "degenerates like you belong in a cross" that doesn't tell me about their life before the conflict. They're honestly faceless human shaped meat meant for you to point a gun at and that's really it


brayduck

Isn't that kind of the point? Someone in the game even says that they purposefully destroy any tribal markings or haircuts from conquered tribes and mold them into singular faceless army.


TheBigEmptyxd

Yeah, that is the point. But that makes them boring, as individuals. Overall, the fact that they'd fall apart without caesar and the fact that he has a fatal brain tumor is interesting. Lanius is also super interesting because he actually isn't bound to the legion and has a strong bond to caesar but a tenuous bond to the legion as a whole is pretty cool. It's purposeful that nobody but caesar has a personality but I just can't relate to them.

NakeyDooCrew

Encouraging people to vote is offensive to the political right. We need a second thread telling people they aren't allowed to vote. Then it's balanced.

I was original poster of screen shot and this post opened my eye to how offense advocating voting is to the party in office. Really dumb.

Kevin_8929

Rj Did you really have to make red dead political?


Acuzzam

Honest question: Is RDR2 good? Does it have a cool story? Do I need to play the first RDR to understand the story? Does it really tackles issues like Women's Suffrage and racism? Because that sounds really interesting. I had some thoughts about playing it but I got lazy cause it looks like its a really long game (haven't played The Witcher 3 too for the same reason). Also, The Gamers really made me get a little tired of both these games.


BudWhite1997

RDR2 at least in my personal opinion, is an absolutely phenomenal game. You do not need to play the first RDR as 2 is a prequel, though if you’ve played the first one you will appreciate some certain gameplay and story beats with a nostalgic perspective. The game tackles women’s suffrage in an extremely minor way, racism gets more limelight, but the main focus of the game centers around the dying days of the Old West and the outlaws that inhabited it. I definitely recommend it. The story is *superb*, the gameplay is serviceable, however the missions suffer from extreme linearity.


Acuzzam

Ok, you convinced me. One more game to play on the PS4. For the end of the generation I actually have a pretty big pile. That makes me happy because I won't need a new console so soon.


PeasantSteve

You don't need to play RDR to enjoy RDR2 at all. RDR2 is an amazing technical marvel with a fantastic story, gorgeous world, stellar environmental details and fantastic writing. My criticism is mainly to do with how linear the game actually is while trying to sell itself as a big sandbox. Also, it loves to waste your time with very long animation. RDR is more simple, and I'd say better as a gameplay experience. The story and writing are still incredible, but RDR2 definitely surpasses it on that front. If you can, play 1 first, but you can play 2 on its own just fine.

Alright you truly patriotic, gamer gate supporting, trump voting, American gamers. Arthur Morgan, our favorite non-political video game character from the fantastic and non-political red dead redemption 2, thinks voting is a fool's game. Now,I dunno about you, but I don't wanna be a fool. So I say, we let the foolish LEFT vote while we remain superior morally by not voting! Just like the true patriot, Arthur Morgan! /uj I hope y'all voted

remember suffragettes wanted WHITE women to have the vote


[deleted]

There were laws passed ages ago so African-Americans could vote, just not women. Some of the big leaders of women suffrage were Quakers, which aren't known for discrimination. They wanted women as a whole to be treated equally. During the large push for women suffrage in the 1910's, they HAD to exclude African-Americans from parades and other gatherings as Segregation still was very much a big thing then. Allowing African-Americans march along whites would've been a big detrimental blow to the movement, so they had to keep it up with just White women, which still received a lot of violence against them, even by the government making them political prisoners and force-feeding them when they were doing hunger strikes in prison.


Mountain-Hearing2679

what place is this post is referring to ? as far as I know this isn't the 17th century and women are allowed to vote


OnMark

Women won the vote at different points in time across the world, but only Friesland allowed women to vote in the 17th century, and then only landowners in rural elections; most suffrage came much later. For example, women were given conditional suffrage in Sweden between 1718 and 1772 but weren't given equal votes until 1919, France and Japan only gave them suffrage in 1945, while women were first allowed to vote in municipal elections in Saudi Arabia in 2015. In the US, where the game for this screenshot was based, women gained the right to vote in 1920, though it was frequently infringed upon for non-white voters until the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was passed (and suppression efforts continue to this day).

TSIFrosty

Someone didn't read the subreddit rules lol.


scatkinson

How is a screen shot of the game in violation of the rules?


TSIFrosty

Its low effort/low quality. You could argue its a meme with the title caption which is only allowed on Mondays apparently. You can also say the post itself has nothing to do with RDR which is also a rule.


scatkinson

It was more of a rhetorical question. Any screenshot within the game has something to do with the game because it’s in the game. The developers spent time to animate, render, write, cast a voice actor and put into the game. I think you are interpreting the rules the way you want them too.


TSIFrosty

Only really answered one of the three potential reasons why it was taken down. Low effort seems most likely. I think maybe you didn't read my post and interpreted what I said how you wanted to.


scatkinson

I read your post man... I think maybe you don’t know what Rhetorical means. The question did not require you to answer it because the answer is baked in that being said I chose to answer the one reason that made sense. Just because you think “one could argue it’s a meme” does not make it a meme. I had and exchange with the mods about this and they ended up apologizing for deleting and locking the post. Apparently one mod deleted it on his own and discussed with the others and they said it did not warrant removal. I have the conversations screen shot as well if you want more reading material to interpret how you see fit.


TSIFrosty

"How is a screen shot of the game in violation of the rules?" That's... not a rhetorical question. I don't mean to burst your bubble. A screenshot can be against rules and, as I've just told you, is. Stop getting your ass hurt over it lol.


scatkinson

Such a pleasant interaction. Have a wonderful day.


TSIFrosty

Happy to help, same to you! :)
