sometimes I understand the frustration of republicans because sometimes not everything is so fucking deep & serious, but yall wanna make everything controversial & important. sometimes the curtain is just blue & it doesn't have some deep implication

it's usually dumb things like taylor swift being maga or the last of us being about israel and palestine. sure art is inherently political, but gdamn I can assure you that both are genuinely not that deep. taylor swift simply folds to whatever bf she has and the last of us creator probably didn't know about the israel and palestine conflict when he made the game. it's just a lot when people deep dive when it's literally unnecessary

like of all the things you couldve mentioned, a billionaire white woman getting married to a kansas football player who literally was manufactured from birth to be a celebrity who, financially, will obviously side with conservatives, and socially will side with her more than likely conservative upbringing and now more than likely conservative to be husband. and a game with an israeli creator to say he didnt know about israel

see what i'm saying that's all slightly annoying lol you just HAD to bring it further. sure taylor swift is those things, but very simply she kinda just folds to her bf. neil is israeli, sure, but did he actively actually know about the conflict to the point he wanted to make an entire game about it? i'd save the average person wouldn't do that or know enough even if they are israeli. it's gotten heightened in recent years. this whole convo is annoying to have like it's dumb

THE WRITER HAS SAID IT DOES HAVE DEEP POLITICAL IMPLICATIONS. AND YOU REFUSE IT BECAUSE YOURE UNCOMFORTABLE. "ITS ANNOYING" YES. YOURE UNCOMFORTABLE. BEING AWARE MAKES YOU UNCOMFORTABLE AND SO YOU REJECT IT.

it's annoying because it is a video game brother. we can talk about israel, sure, but it is a video game. it's annoying because it is a video game and you're taking it so much deeper. I just want to enjoy a video game. that's all. a video game. I want to take the video game for what it is and enjoy it, but if I do, I am a republican zionist. that's annoying. this is why republicans are irritated asf with us. talk about israel and the atrocities and don't cancel a video game.

ok imma end with this - art is inherently political which is why this shit gets brought up so much. ok neil admitted that, but an average person probably didn't know as MUCH and it's HIS experience. it is my fav video game, but it is not that important bc it is a video game. i'm not denying anything, I said israel sucks & cool the game was written that way, but im still gonna like it. i'm annoyed at you, yes, because I don't feel like having deep political talks about objectively

unimportant things like video games. that's where the annoyance comes into play. republicans (and me!) are annoyed with cancel culture because they suddenly aren't allowed (or feel like they're not allowed) to like the things they do because they have political implications which art typically does. it's hard when I just want to like things, but get told it's not ok bc of the political implications

there are so much more important things to talk about, so it's annoying when video games get in the spotlight about how you can't like them because of the implications. it's just a dumb game that I can escape into that I enjoy the gameplay of. like that's all it is to me.
