Having played some of the soulsborne games before I much prefer being able to go away and explore something else if I hit a hard boss or area. It keeps the game much more enjoyable and not feel as "grindy". You do have a point abo

You forgot to also ask, how many Americans actually want to immigrate to India? I'll answer that for you since you seem to have more questions than answers: close to zero.

Again I see no evidence this is the case. Why would they self destruct like that? Their recent woes don’t have anything to do with “offending” people though some would like to believe that to push a narrative.

Is it? If this easily offended demographic were really so big the execs at Netflix are not so stupid to alienate them. The more mundane reason is this demographic is very tiny though they may be very vocal.

Double standards or higher standards? I'm pretty sure people in India would react horribly to such a hypothetical situation. But if that's the standard you want to hold Americans and the American government to that's fine but

Not sure how you make the jump from sane immigration laws to “dilution of national identity”. If anything the USA does a fantastic job of assimilating a wide gamut of cultures without a lot of friction. Of course if your idea of “national i

Also I’m not sure what the race or being a minority or majority demographic has to do with being xenophobic? Pretty sure there are Indian and Chinese xenophobes in the USA as well.

Again, if you want to resort to whataboutism that’s ok but I just want to point out that it’s hypocritical to then go around the world exporting “freedom” and “values” from an alleged high ground.
