old world blues uses sci-fi transhumanist characters to explore the inhumanity and horror of 50’s nationalism and the futility of retro futurism and its so fucking profound and good i m o

bethesda: isn’t the fifties americana aesthetic so cute and fun? greasers! cola! jetsons! pin-ups!

pretty wild how bethesda made the protags of fallout 4 a lawyer and a soldier working for a fascist racist police state… and then proceeded to just not mention that it was a fascist racist police state, and framed their pre-war life as a perfect utopian existence that was unfairly taken from them…

looks bad todd 👀

first of all they have already established and touched on institutional racism and cultural violence in the setting, directly and unmistakably, in fallout 3 and nv, so now walking it back and framing the american government as benign and picturesque is really ugly

secondly i dont have time to explain to you why the themes and messages of media consumed en masse have an impact on culture, or why there exist people who discuss popular things on the internet

why the fuck do i have to justify criticizing a household name scifi franchise that’s been twisted from a critique of modern western culture into a fascist-friendly shooter series where slavery is used as comic relief

fuck you

Canada: Has had only 3 mass shootings in the last 10 years thanks to gun control.

The UK: Has had 1 mass shooting since gun control was introduced in 1997.

Japan: Has never had a mass shooting, thanks to gun control.

Australia: Zero mass shootings since the port arthur massacre in 1996. 

The US: Had 383 mass shootings in 2016 and 273 so far in 2017. 

So take your “gun control doesn’t work!” bullshit and stick it up your ass.

Mass shooting” in this context is defined, using the FBI’s definition, as a shooting where 4 or more people are killed, not including the gunman.

saying “men and cis men” or “women and cis women” is a power move and i HIGHLY suggest you all try it

taking it one step further: “men and cismen” and “women and ciswomen”

My personal favourite: “Women, Men and the cisgendered”
