Interesting. Maybe I was fooled by some deliberate outrage machine. I only read about the "white only" mod. Not the other two. Talk about cherry-picking...
The silver lining of this bullshit is that this again underscores how important critical thinking is.
- jojobas 4y agoIf you think making 3 such mods is not racist yet just one is, think again.
- isoprophlex 4y agoI'm not disagreeing with you. To be clear: I find any of those mods to be distasteful, pointless and potentially harmful. What makes me sad is the amount of effort needed to figure out A) why could github have banned this account, B) knowing that, do I feel this is fair or an over-reaction I planned to use this repo professionally, so getting to the bottom of this is important to me. Instead of clarity, there's outrage and selective reporting; I couldn't find anything conclusive so far.
- jojobas 4y agoConsider this: if an American might want to see a game/movie/whatever where the NPC population representative of America, a Russian/Chinese might want to enjoy a game where where it is representative of Russia/China. If that is distasteful or harmful then so are Netflix adaptations.
- iinnPP 4y agoNone of it is racist nor problematic. As an example, there are plenty of racist things a black only mod enables. Yellow only I would use if I still liked The Simpsons and played the game in question.
