    I imagine Trump's victory will have little to no effect on gaming as a whole, but the cultural push against the general left wing agenda might result in less of that appearing in AAA titles.
    This is the only change I expect.

      Nazi. A person who identifies with the fascistic far right idealogy of the National Socialist German Workers Party that follows and violently enforces tenets of ethnic purity.
      At far as the etymology of "woke" it developed as vernacular for those of African American descent in the Jim Crow era south, referring to a status of awareness or alertness pertaining to those that might wish to do harm.

    • @InciniumVGC
      @InciniumVGC Місяць тому

      ​@@Gheeotine I am fully aware of the etymology of the term "woke" and what people that are colloquially labeled with that term in 2024 believe in. I don't know what bringing up Nazi has to do with this, perhaps you copy and pasted your comment from an earlier session of keyboard warrioring. Or perhaps there is more sinister intent here. One of the elements of woke, as we will discuss later, is poisoning the well in order to prevent earnest discussion by painting any and all opposition to them as "far right" "fascist" "Nazi" etc.
      As for woke itself, it has become a colloquial shorthand for Cultural Marxist. The woke, like the economically Marxist counterparts, believe that everything in society is divided into oppressor and oppressed, and that every conflict in society is based on oppressor vs oppressed, and the oppressor is always evil. With this lens they look at every statistic in modern day society and conclude that if anything is even slightly unequal it must be because there is some oppression going on. They refuse to look at any other variables that might indicate that something other than oppression is going on, for instance the culture of a particular group or any other group differences or preferences. An example of this is the supposed "wage gap", because women statistically make less money they conclude that men are oppressing women, however if you look deeper at the statistics, men make more because they work longer hours, take greater risks and more dangerous jobs, and are more assertive when it comes to asking for a raise. Employers do not, in fact, decide to give women a different wage for the same work, and this is already illegal anyway. According to the woke, any explanations other than oppression are all just far right conspiracies in order to defend those in power. Because wokeness is of a postmodernist philosophical bent, they don't believe in objective truth, they believe that truth can be constructed through language and power (hence the political correctness and push to rewrite history to benefit their Cultural Marxist agenda)
      Essentially, the woke have concluded that heterosexual white males are the oppressor group and it is all the fault of this group that everyone else is oppressed. Because there is not total equality across the board among outcomes for every human, that means there is oppression going on. The woke believe heavily in tabula rasa, meaning that humans are a blank slate with no inherent advantages or disadvantages, and that all inequalities are the result of a socially constructed power structure. Those unequal outcomes can be socially engineered away through manipulating culture such as movies, TV, and yes, video games. This is why the emphasis on "representation" aka removing as many people that are straight, white, and/or male from our media and replacing them with "diverse" people, aka not straight white men. This is also why the straight, white men that are represented in media are usually villified or simply sidelined while "diverse" people are elevated in their place. Most people are tired of this, especially when it is done to already established characters that fans have an attachment to. But when people complain about this, they are villified, called names such as racist or Nazi, and mocked with labels like incel. This is where the backlash from woke is coming from.
      Furthermore, because the woke believe that white males are oppressing everyone else, this is also why they are against hiring based on merit, which is another factor that is hurting game studios. Talented people are being forced out of game studios or passed up for hiring or promotion simply because they happen to be white men, leading to a brain drain from game studios. The stories are all being written in order to heavily push the woke agenda, because again, their prerogative is to socially engineer society. Everything must be political and far left. Everyone is tired of this too. This problem is equally reflected in movie and TV studios. This is all Cultural Marxism. While the classical Marxism is about redistribution of wealth from rich to poor, Cultural Marxism is about the redistribution of wealth and opportunities away from straight white men and toward people who are not those groups. The backlash from this agenda is not coming from people who are "far right" or Nazis. It is coming from everyone who is simply not a member of the far left becoming sick of wokeness embedding itself into every aspect of society. Yes, this has everything to do with why Trump won a decisive victory this year, and yes, defeating wokeness will in fact make gaming a better place through undoing what I have described above.

      ​@@Gheeotine Did you live under a rock the last eight years? The price of games has increased to $70 for AAA releases within the last four years, and I truly don't believe that had anything to do with the political landscape. That said, the economy in general has been tanking under the current administration, and the only reason it hasn't been classified as a recession is because the FED didn't want people to freak out. Compare that to the Trump admin pre-covid, and I think my odds of actually being able to save money are a hell of a lot higher under Trump than Kamala.

      @@perryborn2777 You clearly don’t understand how the economy works. You are aware that it is tanking but it’s quite evident you don’t understand why it’s tanking. It’s not tanking as a result of the current administration’s inaction, it’s tanking as a result of the previous administration’s actions. The tax cuts, stimulus checks, and mass deportation policies are what were responsible for our national debt increasing, but they’re also what were responsible for the heavy price increases, as that debt cannot continue to rise and must be paid off before it goes up further due to interest. Biden inherited the 8.4 trillion dollars of national debt that Trump accumulated our country while also having to deal with pandemic responses.

      'Modern Wokeness' is a radical, modern religion that aggressively imposes political correction to a point of totalitarianism, often contradicting their goal, and enforces ideology through extreme, sanctimonious rhetoric.
      See, most people don't like being talked down to, or have ideology shoved in their face. The same reaction people give to modern wokeness is what you get from religious groups, they're much the same thing in a lot of ways.
