You would not believe how many stories like this have been popping up over the last ~5 years

Not just full games cancelled—entire characters and plot lines removed or changed, leaving less time for making the *rest of the game better*, to try avoiding a small and malicious contingent of voices.

SCOOP: Last year, Ubisoft cancelled an Assassin's Creed game set during Reconstruction. Was to feature a Black Assassin who, among other things, fought the rise of the Klan

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

Bluesky’s Trust & Safety team has somehow managed to become more restrictive & hostile towards marginalized people than a platform owned by a literal neonazi.

Trump is moving us closer to authoritarianism with each deployment of troops into states.

From Illinois to Oregon to California—

None of our states asked for this, nor need this.

I and every U.S. Senator from these states are demanding Trump to end these deployments ASAP.

I wonder if there are any Taskmaster enthusiasts on Bluesky.

I cannot stress this enough: Will Powers makes it repeatedly that he holds trans people in contempt and would prefer a world without us. He experiments on trans women without ethical oversight and his "successes" depend heavily on anecdotal evidence. Please do not put your health in his hands.

Katie Tightpussy, Editor-In-Chief @katie.bzky.team · 2h

not to dwell on the latest incoherent screed, but i look forward to the day in which trans women do not fawn over the transphobic ramblings of an outspoken eugenicist doctor as a speaker of truth and wisdom.

personally i think we deserve better than that. i think we should have higher self esteem.

Congress disappoints me over and over again but let's hope this is accurate

Rep. Eric Swalwell @RepSwalwell
It’s coming to an end guys. I’ve spoken to a lot of House Republicans this week and they’ve confided that Trump’s movement/support is fading. As one told me, “this Epstein bomb is about to drop and no want wants to defend a pedo-protector. It’s just a matter of time.”

Rep. Eric Swalwell @RepSwalwell comments:
·

One Republican just texted me that if there’s a discharge vote on Epstein they expect a “jail break” of over 100 members. Trump will go nuts!

NEW: It’s… another abortion pill lawsuit against the FDA, this time filed by Louisiana and an individual plaintiff, who argue the FDA should reinstate an in-person dispensing requirement for mifepristone.

And if you guess Alliance Defending Freedom might be involved here, you guessed correctly.

AC4 Freedom Cry is explicitly about murdering slavers and AC3 Liberation is about the Black Creole experience during the Revolution, so this is very much backsliding on the part of even this specific branch of Ubi.

never gonna recover from the evangelical pastors who are being told by their flock that Jesus is too woke

A quote from a Newsweek article:

"Multiple pastors tell me, essentially, the same story about quoting the Sermon on the Mount, parenthetically, in their preaching—'turn the other cheek'—[and] to have someone come up after to say, 'Where did you get those liberal talking points?'" Moore said.

"When the pastor would say, 'I'm literally quoting Jesus Christ' ... The response would be, 'Yes, but that doesn't work anymore. That's weak," he added. "When we get to the point where the teachings of Jesus himself are seen as subversive to us, then we're in a crisis."

This might be the worst ICE video yet, because it’s literally random dudes hanging around, and then a bunch of heavily armed thugs running them down completely out of nowhere, because they’re brown. It’s a nightmare that would have seemed excessive in Jim Crow. Everyone in America should see this.

Alejandra Caraballo @esqueer.net · 6h

ICE is not only chasing down every random brown person in Chicago, they have a cameraman following them to film this for social media. Cruelty and inhumanity as content.
