'ANGRY GOY 2' NEO-NAZI VIDEO GAME LETS USERS KILL LGBT PEOPLE AND MINORITIES TO SAVE DONALD TRUMP

Source: Newsweek

Christopher Cantwell, the white supremacist infamous for his role in last year's far-right rally in Charlottesville, is one of the key promoters of a Neo-Nazi video game that allows users to slaughter gay men, Jews, other minorities and journalists.

Angry Goy II, available to download on the website for Cantwell's Radical Agenda podcast, allows users to play as Cantwell or fellow alt-right figurehead Richard Spencer in order to save President Donald Trump, who has been kidnapped by “left-wing terrorists.”

As reported by the Angry White Men blog, one of the game’s levels involves shooting people inside a gay club called “LGBTQ+ Agenda HQ.” The action is strongly reminiscent of the Pulse nightclub mass shooting in Orlando, Florida, in June 2016 when 49 people were killed.

Another mission involves killing journalists inside the offices of the “Fake News Network," a reference to the term Trump uses to attack media organizations such as CNN. The New York offices of CNN were recently sent a pipe bomb as part of an alleged plot targeting Trump critics and key Democrat figures, including former president Barack Obama and former secretary of state Hilary Clinton.

Disgusting. It's not free speech if it promotes violence.

...actual LGBTQ people are not one-tenth as obsessed with LGBTQ people as sniveling snowflakes like Christopher Cantwell are.

The First Amendment does protect hate speech, but it would be interesting to put them through the wringer by claiming this is a call to arms.

Making another low quality 2D game that is just like the obnoxious shovelware vomited out by 99.9% of Steam “developers” (someone who couldn’t bother to learn programming or graphics design)? Make the game as offensive as possible so that edgy 12-year-olds are tricked into buying it with their parents’ credit card.

When did shitty graphics made in MS Paint and vomitted on a sprite sheet become an art style?

2D pixel art is the go-to art style for talentless game devs and their shovelware. If you ignore the content, this game is still vapid shite.

The games desensitize. Once that happens the gamers will want more. That's how this works.

25 or more years ago, I saw young kids playing an arcade game in the lobby of a store I shopped. It was a shooting game with human targets. I was appalled that young children were allowed to play the game, that the game was so graphic, and it was there. I wrote to the department store, but the game remained. The games have only improved in graphics, realism and so on. I think that if people play games with human targets, they will be desensitized. If they are playing games, they are not developing social connections that are vital to keep humans civil.

Minorities and alternate life-styles are not the problem. The problem is a willingness to hate easily, picking people who are obviously different.

Seriously, this crap violates most ISP contracts. The ISP should shut down this hate-mongering.

If it was legal then a number of other violent video games, movies and books would probably be on the chopping block for being outlawed.
