Right Wing Extremism Simulator 2K17

i think he means that you probably overestimate how nuanced people are about being an CIA supporter or whatever

seriously what even is this

[Zloff]

im not sure either but she's hot so im ok with it

[PhantOS]

Yeah this is definitely about the UK going 1984 and not about a misguided and rather handicapped attempt to stop "right wing extremism" which by this game's standards is basically joining a political group that somehow leads to stomping out a black person

its the uk saying 'you shouldn't let yourself be radicalized and do horrible things because they are horrible' which you somehow equate to demonizing the right

i don't think you understand the meaning of 'extremism'

and if we're being honest here, if you live in the UK you've had more experience with Islamic extremism than right wing extremism.

normally i'd bring up the insanely high hate crime statistic compared to the 2 islamic extremism attacks uk gets each year but i'm sure you don't even believe hate crime exists so

[Karl Marx]

because that's what conservatives do boi forget stuff UP YEAH

Could this be self awareness?

[Deus Ex]

I have no idea how that happened, updated OP with an actual link now whoops

Could this be self awareness?

Could this be projection?

You're not even reading what I'm saying are you?

im reading what you're trying to say. what you actually said is a really badly prepared combination of 'i dont like this game' and you shilling your political opinion into it where it isn't even required

JHesus forget

[VerticalHorizon]

i thought blockland forums was the right wing extremism simulator

[PhantOS]

JHesus forget

i hope thats some level of self-awareness, otherwise

'i dont like this game'

Clearly this is a beyond handicapped attempt to warn people about sliding into extremism, for obvious reasons. It's too vague in it's questions, too automated to get you to think about your decisions

The most confusing thing about this is the part where your new Youth Action friend sends you the totally dank memes bro that look like they're from loving 2002, then ask you to come hang with them again.

shilling your political opinion into it where it isn't even required

UK Police are here to educate you on right wing indoctrination attempts. somehow managing to beat a black guy to death, because that's what conservatives do boi forget stuff UP YEAH

if we're being honest here, if you live in the UK you've had more experience with Islamic extremism than right wing extremism.
I know the UK is going to stuff with the censorship and demonization tactics but come on guys damn

even on a game telling you not to be radicalized or join cult movements (common loving sense), you somehow find a way to justify pushing your political agenda

If all you got out of that was I'm "shilling" then you need to retake Reading Comprehension when you apply for college.

The point of my criticism of this game is that it is indicative of how the UK POLICE and government (this is tax-payer funded!) think people are radicalized. This'd be just as braindead handicapped if it was an Islamic Extremism Simulator where you join a mosque and somehow end up beating and raping a woman. Sharing memes and joining a youth group doesn't turn you into a person willing to beat a black guy to death. That makes no loving sense.

maybe you should've started the thread out by saying this. the only time you touched on this was the word 'somehow'. when you just talk about all this bullstuff censorship and other irrelevant information you completely confuse anyone trying to understand your point

Maybe you should take that up with the conservatives that are in power over there

[Tactical Nuke]

the jump from "hey this is a nice rally" to "hey let's go to another rally and this time get violent" is totally unrealistic

it also doesn't give a reason for you to beat a random black guy to death

the whole "simulator" is just one big "gotcha bitch" but that's not what extremism is supposed to be, you're supposed to be convinced that it's okay to use violence, which this game doesn't do
