Road Complex AA1 is offensive... really?
This is a bit ridiculous in my eyes. Firstly, the Kekistani movement is intended as a joke. It's a parody of identity politics as a whole, and is absolutely not a hate group. It's a made-up ethnicity intended to be a substitute for an oppressed class. It's meant to parody the use of someone's race or oppressed class as a buffer for their argument, because in reality one's race, gender, or religion does not affect the credibility of their argument one bit. And yes, it parodies white supremacy just the same as it parodies social justice warriors.
I don't understand how this is in any way a "hate group." It's just a little 4chan injoke that grew way too big until the people memeing it forgot its original meaning.
Bungie, don't become one of these skittish developers that always bows down to overzealous political correctness. There's no need to censor or change your game because it might accidentally offend someone's politics. Us fans just want you to deliver a fun experience that's exactly as the developers intended. Sure, you can say that it's [i]just one armor piece,[/i] but it's still substantial. It could have just as easily been that a beloved exotic was found to be "offensive" and had its visuals completely overhauled just to please angry politicals. I don't like this trend in gaming and I thought Bungie was better than this.

It's literally road symbols on gauntlets called "Road Complex."

2 RepliesYeh it's kek, as in lol. It's a satirical, troll page. It's harmless, like the FML page. But because someone sees the satire flag at rallies, making fun of people (and here for the picture!), they labeled a hate group by some crybaby group that doesn't come with facts before labeling. So now, because this Southern Racial Center or whatever claims hate group, it must be so. So foolish. Fighting allusions they are. And then Bungie believing this cucks. It's just comical and sad. Bungie really doesn't know gaming or satire if they're scrambling to remove a "lol" symbol. This is where Louis CK would blare out F A G G O T S ! LOL KEK

2 RepliesI have no idea what this is about. Could someone please enlighten me. Sounds like an interesting read.

The only reason why this is making a fuzz is because ONE made the association. It was ONE who was aware of the said symbol. And it was this ONE who woke up all other dogs barking fire. Sure enough ignoring does not make it go away. Making a fuzz only makes it real and bigger than it was ever intended. A loop that we never seem to break away from. There will always be ONE to feel hurt.... It is life we cannot please everyone at the same time. Still They should hurry with the change if there is going to be one. I am not deleting them.

But what will they do about it... I got these. But are still unchanged in review mode. They just wont show ingame. They show some blue like gauntlets. [quote]"An adventurer's spirit is a tool so few possess. Own it. Enjoy it." The Speaker.[/quote] I own but cannot enjoy them. They were my strongest at time of those messages. Will they alter looks or just give us other ones. Hopefully with better stats as it took blood and sweat to get these.

25 RepliesBecause people are soft and love the popularity of the victim mentality that is prevalent in the US now. I'm not saying right vs left or anything like that because both sides have their flaws. It is the SJW culture though, no doubt. If they see something they can twist as offensive they do. They play the victim. PC culture and SJWs are becoming the scourge of society. They get hurt by words, they need safe spaces, and they are all for free speech unless it's against their agenda to which they will turn to violence to enforce. It's a sad sad truth that most of these participation trophy kids are growing up to be sissies that expect the world give them everything they want and that they're special. So many of these kids are in for a rude awakening. The worst part of this whole social phenomenon is the companies that are caving into this and not taking a stand and telling these people to grow up and get over. Like this situation - there is nothing done wrong by Bungie but by caving in they're essentially looking guilty and feeding the trash SJW PC culture.

2 RepliesBungie will also be changing the name of the Crucible map Midtown because it sounds too much like MGTOW, thus it triggers outraged feminists.
-
It has 2 of the letter "I" in it. It doesn't even look like kek. Let alone the kekistani flag, and if it didkekistan is a joke about identity politics. SJWs just doing what they always do. Looking at something totally innocuous and proclaiming "nahtzee". These idiots ruin everything they touch.

1 ReplyPrime example of people not even understanding what they are complaining about. Sjw's catch wind of someone offended and kick their crybaby machine into protest mode. 1) if you actually sat them down and explained it ... i feel most would go back to their lives and feel like idiots (looking at you antifa -.- ) 2) they spend more time/money getting that bitch machine moving. They really should sit down and establish a time/money vs value/importance ratio. Lots of their gripes are for nothing and essentially a waste of time once you see the outcome and what it actually changes lol. Smh

Found this on YouTube. Bungie done goofed up.

2 RepliesYou know you're in a sorry state, when you can't even tolerate unintentional symbolic resemblances of pubicly, politically dissenting minorities. The ones who are really hurt are the oppressed egyptians, who now have lost all reminders that them and their ancient god of chaos may be granted existence in public domains. Why won't you grant them the right to exist in public spaces?

3 RepliesEdited by DemonRonin: 9/13/2017 5:23:23 PMNo one is saying this wasn't a PR move by Bungie. It was. But like marvel and the "all new. All different" It was a stupid PR move, and they like marvel comics are getting trolled for it. At one point one dev had to say "won't it seem like we caving to SJW? lets just remove without saying why" But he was shut down by the "I don't know what social media is" Guy that was like "SJW are the "good" guys. Like antifa!" LOL

Bungie clearly did it for publicity and to gain notoriety as a development company that tolerates no form of "hate," even if it's just satirical or doesn't really exist. I still find it hilarious how the triggered SJW liberals bought into 4chan's fake bootleg-[url=http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law]-godwinslaw!-[/url] moment.

Well bungie is a bunch of pu$sies Not that there's anything surprise to that
-
Bungie caved, and leaned into political correctness. Not much we can do now. Eventually all video games will be pussified, and broken down to appease the easily offended masses.

4 RepliesIf they dont cater to the .0001% of the population that cries and is offended by everything, they'll be smeared for being racist/homophobic/transphobic/xenophobic/some other made up phobic group. Dont you know thats how the world "works" nowadays? Thinskinned pussies that don't understand the difference in male and female genders whine and stonp their feet because mere words offend them. Then you call em out and you're the bad guy. Just goes to show that we'll have 8 more years of Trump because the far left has continued to double down on their idiocy and attempt to shame anybody who crosses them. I'm disappointed in Bungie for removing the gauntlets, but I'm not surprised.
