Granted it was during a bleak period of my life when I was so reactionary. But my god, to think these goobers are still around today, still doing racism and sexism, just moving from target to target to take out the impotent rage on.
Just reminded of it today with the “discourse” of Yasuke being in Ass Creed and G*mers changing any woman not white and waifish with AI.
its why everytime someone comes to me saying its not an issue about race in a samurai game, I tell them did you complain William in Nioh 1 and its sequel Nioh 2 was an Irish Samurai. if they didnt, suprise you might actually be a racist, because Nioh being a Japanese developed game, also proves Japan doesnt give a shit about historical accuracy and what race a Samurai is, so you couldnt play the japan would be mad about it card.
Seriously though, thats the perfect example to point to to show that this is all bs. It’s the exact same situation - non Japanese people who became samurai in rhe Sengoku era and each had close relationships with a shogun. They’re both real so its not the dreaded “historical inaccuracy.” Theres literally only one difference between Yasuke and William that is the reason they’re throwing a fit about one and not the other
