People call left wing podcast discourse to be terminally online but god damn how did these right wing become such soyboys crying about shooting at ones and zeros.

I hope someone makes a game where if you shoot a cop in the game, a cop magically dies irl.

    Putting on my tinfoil hat for a second: Rockstar paid them to make these videos so they could get counterculture marketing for the first time in almost 2 decades

      I genuinely wouldn’t be surprised, a big part of the marketing of the original GTA back in 1997 was leaking information about how you can kill cops and pedestrians to conservative morality crusaders and right wing rags like the Daily Mail. All of the “Ban this sick filth!” tabloid headlines were apparently celebrated by the dev team because they knew every British (and soon after international) kid would desperately want to check the game out lmao
