Apolitical Rule

If chess came out today, some mod author would give her huge badonkers

At least she's spiky... Spicy

And now I want to 3D print myself a couple sets of pieces - One that is Woman in Bikini's in Pin-up poster poses, and the other in Hot AF Beach boys and the like in poses accenting there form.

Amateurs. unzips

So what you're saying is that switching it from Vizier to Queen isn't about progressive feminism, but instead about monogamy and heteronormative gender roles? Way to ruin it for everybody! 😠

The wazir only moved a single space horizontally or vertically.

The name change from wazir to queen started as early as the 10th century, but the current move set dates from the late 15th century.

Bishop? Fuck off with that chastity thing, they're probably non-binary perverts with genders or something.

Rising is very very different to any other MGS game. Fair warning. I recommend every MGS game wholeheartedly, but don't play Rising and then pick up Snake Eater or MGSV expecting it to be more of the same.

It's the only one I've played, I'm waiting for the Metal Gear collection to go on sale on Steam

I mean the slogan came from Reagan and predates the game.

It was a Reagan campaign, and people like Roger Stone and Steve Pieczenick were involved. Listening to him on Knowledge Fight covering Infowars, they aren't in touch enough to know video game references, unfortunately, since that would have been hilarious.

It originated from Reagan who took it from Thatcher, with Reagan not getting the "Make Britan Great Again" pun works because Great Britain is the name of the English portion of the UK

That's so funny to think about lol

Yeeah, by the time Trump used it, it was a cliché slogan for cinematic hard-right-wing movements and political parties in America. I think the one in The Purge is Keeping America Great

So it was a clue during the campaign that Trump was meaning to do a literal fascism.

I yearn for the day where I meet someone who tries to justify the actions of possibly the single most cartoonishly evil villain in entertainment history.

Maybe second only to the original Thanos, who wiped out half of all life in the universe not to bring balance, but because he was horny.

The term "check mate" literally means "the king is dead".

We know the word for king from other known forms like "sheikh" or "Shah". I don't think the word for "dead" was loaned to English from Persian or Arab in any phrases or sayings except "check mate".

Yeah, but it's about killing the king. It's also about protecting your own king, so not a game of republicanism.

King's* Ransom

Tetris the movie?

The NCR is both Capitalist and Imperialist, the fact that the people of the Mojave don't want the Neoliberal expansionist empire or the fascist gang of slavers is more to the general leftist, almost Anarchist slant.

It's only centrist if you consider the NCR as the end of the spectrum, and not just a lesser of two right wing evils.

And that's why it's important. Why do so many people agree with the Legion despite how obviously horrible it is? I think it's not so much what the Legion does that pushes people away, I mean, there are so many messed up things that happen in fallout, but maybe it's the way they treat you. Hear me out. The NCR couldn't give a shit about it's solders and will actively do everything they can to advertise they're old world ideals but fail to fix its flaws and this leads to almost every solder contemplating suicide just so they don't get caught by the Legion or khans. Now how does the Legion treat you? Initially, hostile, but when you actually become a member, your treated as an equal in the horrible system. The only thing that gives any amount of status is your effort and cunning.

The player character isn't really trusted to play kingmaker, they just do regardless, and because the balance of power is fragile, the Courier is the tipping point for the scales.

Pac man disrespects the dead by eating ghosts, which is considered highly disrespectful in cultures that practice ancestor worship. What's more, Pac man has a wife who is explicitly shown to be as capable as he is, to the point where the only real difference between them is that Mrs Pac man has a bow and lipstick. A bold statement on gender roles if I've ever seen one. In summary, this game is a feminist masterpiece that pokes fun at superstitious conservative countries. Truly a thought provoking piece that will be remembered in the same vein as other great provocative works, such as A Modest Proposal or the movie Borat.

Pac-man was made specifically to appeal to women, a demographic that was rarely targeted with video games at that time. Its core design came right out of the idea that "women like to eat".

Is this feminist-misogynist sandwich political enough for you?

Easy, the sequel was Ms. Pac-Man. /s
