Medieval Games Legitimize White Supremacy

[Blackler]

As  a Leeds Beckett Student (Bitter Rivals of the University of Leeds) I would usually laugh whole heartedly at the storm which could come from the article's author.

 

But without reading the entire journal, I feel we aren't getting the full picture here, also the writer of the article hasn't actually quoted anything in context, only the titles of said sub-sections of the article.

 

I won't judge until I read more.

i once went to the arctic circle on google maps, YAY im a polar explorer! (WHY do peapole always try to pin the games industry in a corner? (gta? it causes kids to turn into vicious killers and cod ohnonononono if your kid plays this game he wil become a terorist....) if someone goes completely apeshit and start killing peapol bechause they played a game theres usualy drugs involved or there has been situations in the past of said person that tossed their mind down a shit hole of crazy. /rant

Once again, we find ourselves in a time where history begins to repeat itself.

 

The more this stuff comes out the more I loose faith in humanity. I really don't see how we can avoid self destruction as it becomes easier and easier to self destruct.

[Mooshi]

I really dont understand how anyone takes these articles seriously.

Great job sharing a garbage piece of "journalism", now they got even more attention and ad revenue - which is the whole business model of their business

 

 

LTT isn't some rinky dink little tech blog, It has a high rate of traffic from tech enthusiasts. Clickbait trash like the type of pieces you'd expect from Gawker media don't belong here, let alone the news section. If you must share shoddy journalism that thrives on cheap clicks for cash, starve them with http://archive.is - someone out there is getting paid for tabloid journalism and i'd rather some of those dollars didn't come from a tech community I care about.

Proof they'll just give a PhD to any idiot this days.

“The Middle Ages is a space where white supremacy is legitimized,”

 

PhD candidate? ...my cat could have worded that opening sentence better. He's too busy watching 'The Lion King' though, as sub-consciously he's a raving feline-supremacist.

Oh great, yet more SJW/Cultural Marxist propaganda BS. So much projection, when calling others racist. Giving her, her PHD, is a mockery of all universities in the world.

[Stadiz]

journalism at its worst.

[D4RK]

Right. Because understanding what the people are saying that oppose you is over rated right?

once they do some effort and try the to view things from both sides then you try to understand them, some one who didnt even bother to try games or get in gaming community have no right to go publicly criticizing them.

As a university of Leeds alumni, I dearly hope that all these is taken out of context. This is embarrassing.

I was wondering why I haven't heard of Leeds Beckett University before. Didn't know you guys changed name.

Yeah, changed after my first year, So I still get Metropolitan on my Degree. They changed it because apparently potential students abroad were were getting confused and thought all the Universities with Metropolitan in the name were somehow affiliated with one another, like a chain university.

 

Also London Metropolitan Bought us out of it so they could use the abbreviation "LMU" as we had the rights for it. I heard it was somewhere in the region of £250million.

........Nevermind the ability to play as China, The Huns, Egypt (on certain games), The Ottoman Empire, etc.

 

Nope, white supremacy.

 

 

Seriously, someone needs to take these peoples PHD's away, because they're talking bullshit. Political Correctness is going to be the downfall of our society.

[The_Strict_Nein]

Also considering 90% of those game are White on White violence, I don't see the supremacy at all.

 

If I was making a game about Nazi Germany, I wouldn't censor the horrible persecution of minorities. By the same measure, if I make a Medieval European game, the characters are white and the women are subjugated.

Politically correct historical revisionist response: "you're a white supremacist for consuming that content"

I have no words for this... 

[SkilledRebuilds]

This one time.. I played Pokemon

I'm a god amongst the animals!

 

 

 

So if I have a dream (fantasy)

Does that mean, because I'm white, I hate all races?

yep. To be grammatically correct: "The Medieval Period is a space IN WHICH white supremacy is legitimized."

 

"Middle Ages IS" sounds bad but is technically correct, so it is better to just use different terminology.

The "space" in this sentence refers to a figurative one, not a physical one, so "where" shouldn't be used. It sounds like children wrote this.

 

filthy PhD casual get on my life sciences undergrad level u scrub

That's something I always like about Britain. In History, we covered Britain's role in the slave trade in full detail. We covered the war atrocities we committed as well as the Germans.

 

In Japan, you can legally deny that Japan participated in WW2 or killed any Americans at all.

[EndlessOyster]

Under the same principle games about ancient china, samurai things they are also Asian supremacy for not putting historical errors in there game.

That's just insane. I find it funny that in the US, when I was in the school, we focused primarily on how horrible America was for being in the slave trade, completely neglecting the fact that the overwhelming majority (around 90%) of all slaves taken from Africa, were sold somewhere OTHER THAN the US. Yet we seem to be the only nation that hasn't gotten over it.

Universities these days seem to be pure hotbeds for idiots like this "professor" or people who decide to take a degree in social studies only then to complain about mundane things that could be solved if that person complaining just picked a different degree in the first place.

 

It's gonna be a rough few years ahead if this is where we as a species are heading...

Cultural Marxists/SJW's have nothing to do with liberalism. They are authoritarian extreme lefts, not liberal lefts.
