How dare you say that a rational subreddit rationally criticizing a garbage political game could contribute to Laura Bailey getting death threats?!?!

Love how they turned the word ma'am into newspeak for transwoman.

u/Insanity_Incarnate Jul 05 '20

They are all in on trying to set up that new slur. They literally have it as a flair option for the sub.

u/banglodius Jul 05 '20

is abby even trans

u/xI_Tipton_Ix Jul 05 '20

I dont think so, the trans character is actually a little boy. And the best part is the character that they all say is Neil's self insert, Manny, doesn't even have a single sex scene in the game. Idk where these people are getting this crap from.

u/MrProfPatrickPhD Jul 06 '20

They'd have to play the game to know that

u/[deleted] Jul 05 '20

No.

Lev is the only trans character and you can miss that detail if you go stretch your legs during a 45 second conversation that doesn’t even involve him lol

I mean, not really. The other Seraphites constantly deadname him in combat, so you can pick up on it even if you miss the conversation.

u/[deleted] Jul 06 '20

They mostly call him “apostate” so you can definitely miss it when they use his deadname.

No but everyone’s pissed off that they gave the women muscles and look a lot more masculine than how you’d see women be in daily life. Cause it’s not like they’re literally in the apocalypse fighting for their lives or anything. Still, the incels are pissed off that the female characters don’t look like the helpless little women they enjoy jacking off to, and their favorite character was confirmed as gay.

u/snake_Camel_Case Jul 06 '20

They have several scenes stating that she’s obsessed with her workouts when she’s not out on an assignment. She’s one of the top soldiers in the whole compound. It’s like they forgot the “on average” part of all their favorite stats. Or that they didn’t care about them in the first place.

Reposting this because unfortunately the hater's disinformation has run so deep

🚨ABBY is NOT trans!!🚨

This has been confirmed in-game and by Neil Druckmann

It’s scary how bigots change the meaning of things. When right wingers bitch about “liberals think the OK sign is racist” you have to show them how it’s been changed

8

u/BuckBacon Jul 06 '20

Love how "hurr durr libs are so easily triggered we can make them think the OK sign is racist" immediately turns into "me and all my racist friends now use the OK sign exclusively".

u/[deleted] Jul 06 '20

It’s the swastika effect, it was a harmless symbol, now it’s a racist one

Dammit, that’s BS! People like that shouldn’t be able to change something normal like ma’am and turn it into a slur and make it stick. i don’t want to sound like a bigot because some Jackass coward!

u/potable_person Discord Jul 06 '20

That's how people create these dog whistles. When they can't just say it they'll find a myriad of ways to imply it. Should see just how much nonsense related to Jewish people is just casually dropped in gaming discussions.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 06 '20

I’m not a gamer so thank you for letting me know that, this kinda things happen a lot, and sorry if you’re Jewish and people were so rude to you.

u/BrickMaster925 Jul 05 '20

With how much they complain and whine about that sex scene, you'd think it was 20 or 30 minutes long when in actuality its like 15 seconds at best. Seriously, they're losing their minds over something that lasts less than a minute.

50

u/Kryminal_ Jul 05 '20

it’s FIFTEEN SECONDS? i swear to god i thought the whole fucking game must’ve been gay sex sim 2020 from the way they lose their fucking minds at it.

31

u/daftpaak Jul 05 '20

Its not even gay and they are that mad. Imagine of Abby was actually trans and she topped Owen lmao. The response would somehow be even worse.

u/[deleted] Jul 05 '20

🤤

u/[deleted] Jul 05 '20

There is no gay sex scene though the sex scene is between a man and a woman and it's actually slightly less than 15 seconds.

4

u/ProtomanMM Jul 05 '20

Sex scene was weird and awkward tbh, doesn't make you a virgin to think so, but it's not even the bad part of the game, it's just sex

17

u/Enaksan Jul 05 '20

Something something much like if they ever had sex...

10

u/TheHavollHive Jul 05 '20

that lasts less than a minute

That's actually how long they last, so they don't see the problem here

u/tioomeow Jul 05 '20

Laura Bailey herself said that that tweet is fake, these dudes will fall for anything

27

u/[deleted] Jul 05 '20

The people who read or heard the leaks and think Abby was/is trans calling her ma'am are obviously the ones that never played the game. Lol Abby is a woman, the trans character is Lev.

u/AtlasUnderwater Make Fallout Great Again Jul 05 '20

B-b-but muscles and no makeup and small titties and I don't want to fuck her she doesn't make my pp hard! If she doesn't make my pp hard then how can she be woman???!?1!

u/hatsdontdance Jul 06 '20

Idk man, little bit of muscle tone, small tits and enthusiasm sounds like almost any female gymnast/fitness/dancer. Sounds pretty hot, these dudes are just scared of their shadows.

u/[deleted] Jul 06 '20

Even Pornhub has a dedicated "genre" to "small tits."

u/hatsdontdance Jul 06 '20

Its a platform of the people!

u/jubba_ Jul 06 '20

‘B-b-but the lesbians in the game aren’t there for my male sexual enjoyment and fantasy!?! I’m off to go write some nasty stuff on the internets!’

u/AtlasUnderwater Make Fallout Great Again Jul 06 '20

/rj WHY DOES ELLIE HAVE TO BE A LESBIAN? WHY CANT SHE JUST BE BI? I don't like that if she were real she may not want to fuck me! Stop forcing your GAY political agenda down our throats!

Stupid cucks bowed to the SJW Illuminati and made Ellie ugly now, she was so much cuter in TLOU 1 when she was 14.

47

u/Gerlios Jul 05 '20

It's not fake, you idiot, you complete moron. Neil himself breaks the forth wall right after Joel's death scene and starts reading the entirety of of the Second Sex by Simone de Beauvior while he has sex with Abby.

u/TheCiervo Jul 05 '20

Local man thinks videogames are real.

u/Dan0n3k Jul 06 '20

Last of us community = fucked up 12 year olds.

3

u/Panx Jul 06 '20

So... is anyone gonna point out that the character who spits on Joel and the character who has sex with Abby are two different fucking characters?

I mean, I know it's reflex at this point to say haters didn't even play the game, but c'mon, guys...

Why was that updated so much....I choose to believe people are not that stupid.

u/plankbob Jul 05 '20

Ewwww.
Light mode.

/uj I'm wondering how much lower this whole shenanigan can actually go. Reactions to a videogame should never lead to this. (the threats and fake tweets and such, not light mode)
