Why context is important
“matpat gave the pope undertale” sounds way different than “matpat met the pope while representing the YouTube gaming community and it’s customary to give the pope a gift that’s reflective of the culture your represent and he chose undertale, a game about choices, consequences and reflect and peace/love”
how about “matpat was given a rare opportunity to speak to the pope and he gave him a meme game”
None of Undertale’s virtues change the fact that it’s really arrogant to assume a major religious leader will take time to play your favorite game.
Also, maybe if you want to be taken seriously don’t give the pope googly eyes in your thumbnail.
Except he knows the pope probably won’t play it and the gesture was symbolic. Did you even watch the video to get context or are you just mindlessly hating based on what you’ve heard through hearsay?
Was the part where he compared gamers to Orlando shooting victims hearsay or
Jesus didn’t die for this
You’re right he didn’t die for people to keep spreading mindless hate.

the pope doesn’t have a computer tho
Congrats, you have shown you didn’t watch the video and are making assumptions based on hearsay
ever heard of something called a joke, sweaty :)
Yes but there have been many people who have legitimately used that argument so it’s kind of hard to tell who is being serious and who isn’t, especially white there’s no way to tell what inflection you mean to use when saying it.
So Pokemon Go came out and I legit walked around for three hours in the dark, met like five of my neighbors also looking for Pokemon, and saw a grown ass man trudge into a pond. What a time to be alive.
nintendo’s plan to make everyone get out the house is working spectacularly if a bit odd.
“Working spectacularly, if a bit odd” is Nintendo’s entire goddamn business model.
I saw a spearow, there was a catterpie on my car, an eggsecute blocking me, a zubat chilling and a deerling.

Yeah, “matpat met the pope while representing the YouTube gaming community” is actually even more ridiculous so I’m not sure context makes this one better
The real context is “MatPat gave the Pope Undertale while also comparing being a gamer to being Muslim or Queer because he’s MatPat and he’s an egotistical asshat”.
No he didn’t your still taking things out of context, probably based on hearsay. He used Muslims to explain what the availability heuristic is. He wasn’t comparing gamers to Muslims. He mentioned Orlando and said “(the world) needs peace more than ever now” he wasn’t comparing gamers to the Orlando victims. Maybe actually watch the video to look at what actually happened and stop spreading hearsay.
I did watch the video, and I stand by what I said. He mentioned all that to make his case for sympathy to gamers. And let me tell you, that’s fucked up. He used two very much discriminated against minority groups in the US as examples on why people should he nice to gamers. That’s what he did.
He used a discriminated group to explain a social phenomenon called availability heuristic. He didn’t say “gamers are as oppressed as Muslims” he said “this is what availability heuristic is and how it’s what forms stereotypes including a real world example of how it works. Now here is how the availability heuristic applies to what I was representing when I was invited by the pope to have an Interview”
At this point it sounds more like you’re looking for reasons to hate either mat pat or undertale. While I can respect you have a different opinion, I cannot respect spreading false information.
