Is there a game mechanic for funding right-wing populism and making the rejection of education a badge of belonging?
Buying video games from big corporations IS a mechanic for funding right-wing populism, but every time you say that in a public space people who are defensive about their vidya games get reaaallllly touchy.
edit: even funnier than I expected, ya'll didn't even read "big corporation" and your eyes fixed on "video games" and we're at the same level of discourse as when you say to some chud "that's some toxic kinds of masculinity" and they say "masculinity isn't toxic!!" I hope you're proud of yourselves.
It would have been easier to just say:
"That's coming with the update that adds Call of Duty and Fortnite into the game."
