Just finished reviewing The Last of US II.   With the story taken out, It is technically a 9 out of 10 game.  The game as a whole is ruined with a horrifyingly awful story and characters.

they forgot about Asians lol:  Sums up the use of numerous Asians in the game- as disposable fodder.  I heard that this game is getting criticized on this account in Asian gaming sites.

Looks like there's a virus targeting the brain cells of most people in the PR departments of big American companies

There is some swearing and very unpolitically correct in these dark times. 
If you are offended with such, you have been warned. 
George Carlin and his thoughts on soft language. 
 

It was true then, and I’d say it’s even more so today. 
 

His other routines could be applicable as well. 
Take the one about being politically correct was done in the 80’s. 

the part about context and that words in and of themselves are not bad words. It becomes bad when the context changes. 

To those of you who do not like swearing and using words today that were ok through to the last few years will probably be upset and all that. You have been warned! 

The Entertainment (Re-education) Industry taking a dump on Aliens, Forrest Gump, Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Splash, Cowboy Bebop (and many more) is problematic. Or shall I put it this way?

That's what Disney and their vandal buddies look like now:

I remember it (or shall I say I fucking remember it ). The 90s (and also the 00s) were the best years. I was a kid and a I was discovering a world of freedom and opportunities. The Entertainment Industry was bold and daring. The creatives were free and provocative.

Thinking about it now, we can say it was... glorious.

Lincoln and US Grant statues now?? The president of the Union and the leader of the Union army.... I'm not even American and I know this.

What - in - the - actual - fuck - is - wrong - with - these - people? And then, nobody says anything. The USA is a self-destructing country and that's sad to watch.

This is getting fucking bad.
This is getting more fucking ridiculous by the second! 

I’m offended by THE IDIOTS being offended just because someone might be offended, so THE IDIOTS are offended for them. 
 

I’m usually a liberal independent, and because I’m a “L” I don’t want to be lumped in with all this shit. 
 

Covid-19 infection rate in the US is rising again. We now have the most amount of infections. 
 

It has not been said in the media and government that this could be related to 1) the loosening of the shelter in place demands, and 2) all of the multi person gatherings and 3) not wearing masks when outside and in public spaces. 
 

I doubt that the above reasons will ever be admitted.

I agree and the extremists are going to spawn extremists on the other side. If moderates don't call out extremist behaviours (wherever they come from), then the extremists of all kinds will reinforce themselves and shit's gonna become worse every day.

  I despise 2020. This year is the worst I've ever seen. And not because of a 150 nanometer virus, no, no. Because of F-ing humans.

What the frack is wrong with people these days? And once again, why do the little guys have to suffer because nobody defends their rights, their freedom and their security?

This world is a joke.

The Last of US II turns out to be a commercial success despite the story.  Not unsurprising as entertainment media has been successful despite LGBT reframing:
