They told him to get fucked, so one of his chode toadies on xitter started a rumor that they added him to the game and then removed him in a patch.
is it impossible to have a balanced conversation about starfield in particular, or does the internet ad economy tend to exclude the middle of every conversation in favor of loud antagonism and engagement bait?
What's neat about this is it's not going to help any children, they know it won't help any children, and they don't want it to. It's an excuse to put more people in prison for longer because a Fucking Lot of people make money every time someone goes to prison. It's an excuse to boost police budgets that are already inflated, and to erode our civil liberties even further than they already have. We joke that we're losing the drug war and we regular citizens are, but not to drugs. The drug war is a proxy war that the moneyed establishment is waging against the working class. That's who's winning the drug war that we're losing, and losing so many of our loved ones to.
Did y'all know that "nimrod" didn't mean idiot until Bugs Bunny said it? Nimrod was a biblical king who was supposed to be a mighty hunter. In an episode with Elmer Fudd Bugs was like 'What a Nimrod we got here' or some shit like that.

We've gone from "we're not corrupt" to "you can't do anything about it". He's not denying the corruption at all anymore.
Stop assuming they're stupid. They're not stupid. They're monsters, they know exactly what they're doing and they're doing it because they want people to suffer.
Came here to say this. How many times are we gonna watch one of them "accidentally" quote Hitler in a speech, or talk about the benefits of slavery, or talk about how they want to make women second-class citizens, then pretend that they didn't? They gathered under a banner at CPAC that said 'We are all domestic terrorists'. When someone tells you who they are, believe them.

we pick from the menu for dinner tonight, and for future meals we fight to have more of a say in what's on the menu. there's too many people calling for my head right now for me to protest vote or sit out because the guy who doesn't want to kill me is problematic about some niche policy position. remember that a lot of trump's money in 2016 went toward campaigning for democrats to stay home, with reasons alternating between "clinton is an awful candidate" (she was) and "she's got this in the bag so your vote doesn't matter".
I have shot and killed a deer with a flintlock gun. They're not toys or props. He committed assault with a deadly weapon and the whole word is just like "Oh, that's just wish.com iron man. You know how he is."
