They show up by law to every accident I think (in that state).

Putting someone’s address on a doc seems like a bad move from the police?

Why does he keep doing this 

Even if these are mere placeholders, then there still isn't a black or latino placeholder

More diversity in place holders!

anyone who cares this much about a nickelodeon game is a surely a paedophile

Going into across a lane when you admit you can’t see it and don’t know if it’s clear, is not an accident, it’s negligent driving. Hopefully OP learns from this but you don’t help OP in anyway pretending different

an accident is when you slip on black ice and crash into someone cause you lost control. Based on what OP said; he swerved through 2 lanes cause he wanted to save a few minutes. Extremely negligent.

Edit: seems I have misunderstood what had happened, my bad.

 

- I was not impaired or distracted during the accident. It happened before work. I had to cross two lanes of traffic to turn. I was waved on by a driver in the rightmost lane and got hit in the front/side in the second from right lane. I could not see the driver because of the lane of traffic in the rightmost lane. It was a product of bad traffic design and trust in someone else waving on more than anything.

actually, OP is an idiot. You don't trust other drivers to tell you if it's clear.

FWIW, I don’t understand the reasoning behind stuff like this. Do people think harrassing will somehow make them change their minds? If the goal is to convince voters, I hope that works and doesn’t backfire.

If she wants them to stop, she just has to agree to vote for the bill. This is how you hold politicians accountable. If you just politely ask only when it’s convenient for politicians, nothing gets done.

I’m glad activists keep getting on her. They need to do it to more politicians.

LOL no, that sets a terrible precedent. All it takes is a group of white nationalists to go harass Ilhan Omar for you to change your stance on that.

What I'm getting from a lot of these takes is that storming the capitol is actually totally cool

Nintendo can go fucking fly a kite, man. This has burned so many bridges in my head for me and this company. The optics of not one black person in this massive historic cast will always be a glowing reminder that these fuckers are racist as shit. Fuck "well...they didn't know". Yes these motherfuckers did.

It has to be intentional. Otherwise I really can't fathom how you include 89 characters spanning gaming history without a single Black character being included.

It absolutely is intentional.

Why should anyone give them the benefit of the doubt though? Because they make good games? 90 character and zero of color sort of burns that benefit of the doubt in a lot of people's minds, you understand this, no?

When you got black characters being portrayed as thieves and apes, no black characters in the roster, Sakurai posting weird shit on Twitter that is insensitive to the black struggle...

At what point are we allowed to question it?

How about actually replying to those posts and having a proper discussion as opposed to making sarcastic drive-bys that don't contribute to the thread and just foster toxicity?

boy shut your ass up lmao

Fuck Nintendo, and fuck anyone defending this shit or trying to make Nintendo look innocent or naive. It’s been a shit company for years for many of the reasons people on this forum hate other companies for, yet still love Nintendo somehow.

What about game and watch

You're not funny, you're just an ugly racist.

so these troll accounts getting tiresome. Y’all fuckers don’t even have the spine to come in and spew whatever bullshit you want. It’s nearly sad how cowardly you are.

Why are we scared to call Sakurai a racist? Fuckin tired of Japanese devs getting away with bullshit western devs would get (rightfully) crucified for.

89 misses isn't accidental or complicit. It's intentional.

Is there any remotely realistic scenario where Miles Morales could have been a DLC character?

SAKKKKUUURRRRAAAAAAAIIIIIII

[Cauliflower Of Love]

Yep. Even company that doesn't care about representation at all, you will find a white dude saying : "Oh we will include POC in X and Y because it means an other audience so a lot more money". (there is probably a word, but basically, greenwashing with POC).

So you really have to say : "Oh no, there won't be POC in the game, I don't care about more money, I want white people".

People trying to give the benefit of the doubt can f* off.

[GreatSageEqualOfHeaven]

What percentage of characters in Smash Bros could feasibly pass as human, and of that percentage, what percent aren't from fucking Feudal Japan Fantasy Fire Emblem?

Because that's the actual number of character slots that you're complaining about, not that Yoshi doesn't have a Black skin included. (Or maybe he fucking does, I don't know, but if any non human characters with black skins get dismissed, then why are you demanding those character slots get included in your 'diversity' outcry I know exactly fucking why)

oh, and also characters like Ryu from Japan are considered white because reasons

[Pissy F Benny]

I thought it was established that the smash brothers was one step removed from rapeplay, do you really want yts sexually assaulting a fictional character of colour, reset era dot com?

[Pissy F Benny]

BTW why are we expecting a game called the smash BROTHERS to be inclusive

[Cauliflower Of Love]

WTF. Diverse lineups in fighting games have been a staple since Street Fighter II. It's tradition. Half of the appeal of that game was the coolness of the "world warrior" concept. And I say this as a white guy.

oops, admitting to participating and enjoying digital blackface, on today of all days.

It's probably for the best that Smash doesn't have any black characters. Otherwise you could shoot water at them and we all know that's not okay.

WHAT ABOUT THE PIC OF THE DAY WHERE RODIN WAS HOSED BY MARIO?

spoiler (click to show/hide)

[close]

In case you missed the controversy, the Pic of the Day that Sakurai posted on September 16th, 2021 depicted Mario using his Down B (F.L.U.D.D.) to attempt to hose Rodin while Peach was unfazed by all of it. This creates parallels to the use of water cannons on civil rights activists during the Civil Rights Movement, most notably during the Brimingham Campaign. There was a separate thread on the topic, but it was later locked. But since it relates to the topic of Smash's anti-Blackness, I thought it made sense that I add this section & give my thoughts. Even in spite of this, I do not think that Sakurai is racist. It does however show that he has a massive blindspot for stuff like this, be it the implications this image has or the racist stereotypes that are found in certain spirit battles (as mentioned earlier). So to be clear, I believe that this situation was unintentional on Sakurai's part. But with that being said, I do very much recognize the implications & they are bad (especially considering that Rodin is the only Black character who can participate in a fight, albeit as an Assist Trophy). If anything, it shows that Sakurai needs to consult Nintendo of America on such matters to avoid similar problems going forward. Though despite all my attempts to view the image recently on Twitter, Era, or Discord on either phone or laptop, it doesn't seem to load. So perhaps Sakurai recognized the racist implications & used Twitter Cards to make it blank (something I didn't know was possible until Urban Scholar pointed it out to me). Still, it shouldn't have happened. And even if it wasn't intentional (which I believe is the case), Sakurai should consult those well-versed on these topics to avoid further anti-Black implications in or around Smash going forward.

Maybe that's the problem, in his hypothetical situation only white people do this.

It’s strange that the most progressivest inclusivest site has so many racists running it. Morrigan and her campaign to gas Muslims. Nep and her campaign to enslave every African American with a career. B Dubs and his secret KKK members only parties. Kind of sickening really.

Random event in American history that a foreigner doesn't know about (actually i'd wager most Americans don't even know) is a blind spot? I mean if they didn't know about it, the image clearly isn't a reference to it, so...

How far up your own ass do you have to be?

Even if they were familiar with that event in history, analogizing the two scenes is mental.
