SJW's Flip Over "DOOM: Eternal" As It Mocks Leftist Political Correctness On Immigration
2018-08-14
...During the recent QuakeCon in Grapvine, Texas at the Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center, Bethesda Software gave a 25 minute presentation of their new game "DOOM: Eternal." It was during the uninterrupted game play footage that we’re introduced to a holographic "greeter" artificial intelligence.

While this AI only appears several times throughout the gory video, when she does she spouts things that sound an awful lot like what a politically correct, sterilized, social justice figure would say. Apparently, her job is to encourage humans to greet the monstrous demons that have found their way into our realm with kindness and acceptance.

Within the video she can be heard rattling off phrases such as "my brothers and sisters, let’s help top make our friends transition into our world a comfortable one," or "remember: ’Demon’ can be an offensive term, refer to them as ’mortally challenged.'"

...At this time, the only people making comparisons are the SJWs. Apparently, without anyone having to point it out, the SJWs set about accusing the company of comparing murderous, and bloody demons to the migrants, unintentionally acknowledging that a lot of the violence people are seeing is due to the very group of people they think they’re righteously defending.

#8  The developers of pre and modern Doom are known for mocking most of what is popular or popular culture. This is pretty typical of Doom games.

#7  Now I've *got* to get this game!

Just hope that Bethesda realizes that none of the complainers were ever going to buy this game in the first place, and doesn't cave to the mob. Of course the mob will then attack the retailers (Amazon, etc.) for selling a "racist" (against demons? Hell, yes!) product.

#6  Played many games, but have never played a 'shooter' like Doom... Maybe its time to try one out. SJW's are advertising again to a population segment, gamers, they just don't understand.

#3  It is called satire.

Of course the SJWs will flip their shit over it.

#1  These are the same people who complain about "racism" in Tolkien because they see black people when reading his descriptions of orcs.
