The game is called Soulash 2, and the developer recently added a marriage system in an update, but refused to allow same-sex marriage options when asked by a player.

Dude makes a twitter post that is something else lmao https://x.com/ArturSmiarowski/status/1827386801310593108

My grandparents survived the nazis, my parents endured communism, I had to live through religious oppression since the age of 10, and now some spoiled brats think I'll bend my knee to their rainbow flag, or else they'll type some words.

I truly hate g*mers

"My grandparents lived through oppression, so now I'm going to oppress others."

Genius brain here.

To these people, not being allowed to oppress others is oppression

they want to be white so badly

[–] VILenin@hexbear.net 46 points 2 months ago (1 children)

don’t let the blue haired lesbians get to you

These people are not sentient.

You know what's funny? I only ever encounter "people" like this online. Not once have I ever met someone in real life who talked like this.

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 14 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I've seen dogwhistle blowers and baiters that'd play straw-"wokes" to deliberately set off the chuds in the game's chat bot.

"Check your privilege, shitlord" "did you just assume my gender" and all that tiresome shit.

[–] HelltakerHomosexual@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

nah they fucking everywhere

[–] Rojo27@hexbear.net 38 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Whats this "religious oppression" he's lived through since the age of 10 in Poland?

[–] Formerlyfarman@hexbear.net 29 points 2 months ago

He probably went to a catholic school.

gommulism 😔

Divine groping by the priest

[–] GlueBear@hexbear.net 18 points 2 months ago

Also why is he not sympathizing and including another group that has had to deal with religious oppression?

[–] AmericaHaterSexHaver@hexbear.net 34 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Stalin shouldve turned Warsaw to ash

[–] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 24 points 2 months ago

Warsaw was already in ash due to the Nazis . . . I think some other approach to the problem might have been merited instead.

Someone close to him in the comments:

"Artur, I say this as someone who cares, and would like to give you the benefit of the doubt, that it is disappointing, disheartening even, to see you go down this route. Please for a second consider the people you would have made happy by including inclusivity, just for a moment"

This idiot:

"We've got to know each other for a while now, and I appreciate you giving me the benefit of the doubt.

Please consider that people around the world went through different shit to survive up to this point, and you can't have tolerance for intolerance because that's just living in oppression.

That's how I feel at this moment. I spent a whole week stressing over not saying something that might offend a specific group of people I will never meet, I didn't sleep the last 2 days, until I realized that this simply doesn't fucking work for my mental health.

So my message to these extremists who demand me to subscribe to their ideology is to live and let live, or fuck off. I hope you'll understand this has gone too far, and while it receives some well-deserved pushback to normality we can all live with, we can remain friends."

"you can't have tolerance for intolerance" He is very smart. His understanding of the Paradox of tolerance is unparalleled.

"I spent a whole week stressing over not saying something that might offend a specific group of people I will never meet" TIL there are none gay people in Poland

[–] edge@hexbear.net 34 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Using the paradox of tolerance to justify actual intolerance is a new one for me. It’s such an insane thing to do.

[–] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 31 points 2 months ago

It's a very blatant "Reversing Victim and Offender"

[–] GlueBear@hexbear.net 22 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I've seen it done many times when it comes to Syrian refugees and "saving western values."

[–] Gosplan14_the_Third@hexbear.net 9 points 2 months ago

It's extremely popular in Germany to justify the government going after extremists. In general, most governments will tell you the exact same thing about enemies. Sprinkle in some moralism on top too, usually.

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 30 points 2 months ago (2 children)

This game is going to be glazed as the best game ever made in 3…2….1….

"Finally a game without politics!"frothingfash

[–] DengistDonnieDarko@hexbear.net 24 points 2 months ago (2 children)

do not look at the steam reviews

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 25 points 2 months ago
[–] Sulvor@hexbear.net 14 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

90% of those reviews are from before this update. I got this like 6 months ago and updates have been constant

God fucking damn it and I was interested in this game too

[–] Sulvor@hexbear.net 15 points 2 months ago

Same, it's pretty niche and still a WIP but now I want a refund

[–] BeamBrain@hexbear.net 20 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (2 children)

My grandparents survived the nazis [...] and now some spoiled brats think I'll bend my knee to their rainbow flag.

Reminds me of a verse from the song Arbeit Macht Frei:

CW for maybe a slur? I dunno if the q-word counts as a slur when used in this contextHer old man
He don't like blacks or queers
Yet he's proud we beat the Nazis?
How queer

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

Doherty is a fucking incredible lyricist. Like absolutely on a level that's way out there.

Soulash

that name should have been reserved for a paranormal/ghost themed cooking game

I need some ghost peppers and scare-ots for my soulash

[–] TreadOnMe@hexbear.net 18 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I will never meet these people. Therefore, I hate them and their ideology that is clearly being forced upon me, even though again, I have never actually met any of them. What an absolute baby.

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 13 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

CDPR and especially its toxic reddit-logo fandom constantly reminds me of how nonpolitical us-foreign-policy Based Poland, land of the Witcherino and the Cyberpunkerino, tends to be when treats flow out of it.

[–] FearsomeJoeandmac@hexbear.net 18 points 2 months ago

i think thats just the fans. Cyberpunk was a pretty gay game.

Not saying it was a good or bad slop, just that it was gay

[–] hello_hello@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago

Maybe he just doesn't know how to program same sex marriage into the game and he doesn't want people to know. But these hexbear TANKIES are bullying this poor Polish dudebro for not being good at programming.

Tch tch. Expected nothing more from a TANKIE instance.

Oh fuck, I bought Soulash 1 a few months back... I usually don't pirate indie games but now I wish that I did
