Portal | Recommended | Contains no Hippie content.

ok, sure whatever

Portal 2 | Informational | Contains subtly anti-patriarchy messaging. All male characters are portrayed negatively and as less competent than the female characters.

Do they think anti-capitalism isn't woke or are they this oblivious to satire?

These people have literally zero media literacy. If the subtext isn't directly in the text (and even then they still have even odds to miss it) then they will whiff on it get mad over some arbitrary woman or black person numbers within the game rather than what characters within the game actually do.

I'm pretty sure Doom 2016 won't be on the list because fun dumb shooty game, when it's got an obviously anti-capitalist message right there, with evil billionaire turns himself into a robot while getting the planet hooked on hell energy so earth doesn't go without it's treats.

I saw a drawing of medic putting his fingers in scouts mouth, so yeah, I think politics may be happening

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
