fair enough. i dunno, it touches on more than just racism in terms of controversial topics. whole game is permeated by really heavy themes, which, yes, is kind of surprising; that a game finally carries social gravitas akin to a novel or movie or tv series. but i don't think it's a matter of people not noticing it as they go through, though. that's all i was (dickishly) saying. coloured bathrooms, passing slurs, and generally separatist imagery is rife throughout. they have a statue commemorating john wilkes booth.

i think i was just vicariously exercising my annoyance for general "am i the only one that..." posts on the internet, because i feel like at this advent it is scientifically proven that in 100% of cases, no. no, you are not the only one.

but that's not your fault and i shouldn't have taken it out on you
