Did I fall through a time portal to 2001 or something? Why are all the conservatives losing their shit over GTA again?

Rockstar waited 12 years to release it so they'd get a new generation of moral outrage free advertising.

It's hilarious because there is literally nothing that could make kids want to play a game more than some asshole in a suit saying the game is too sexual for kids.

Yeah, someone said that this is all astroturfed by Rockstar, and I kind of half believe it. The previous games sold really well due to controversy giving them free publicity. So it wouldn't surprise me if they wanted this one to also be "controversial" as a form of free advertising.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
