Resident Evil 5: The easy target for ambulance-chasing racists
So, a friend of mine dropped me a line where the race card is once again being pulled out to hamper yet another piece of entertainment from smoothly rolling out the production gates. This blog on Microscopic encites the notion that Resident Evil 5 is a hate-crime simulator.
Let is be known, Mr. Colma, that about 90% of your readers stopped reading past your introduction line, if they had half a brain, I on the other hand, chose to indulge your stupidity and enjoyed your bias-laced tirade of gross misinformation.
To backtrack on my first point, the blog writer states: “OK, we all know zombies gotta die. And I loved Resident Evil 4. So why do these early images from the next installment of the Resident Evil franchise make me so queasy?”. Hm, I wonder why? It’s because it’s always all right for other races to be picked on in the black community’s eyes, but when the axis of hate tilts their way, they are quick to cite “hate” and “racism” for the reason they are portrayed this way in a game. Just for your general knowledge, the game is developed by THE JAPANESE, not white people, not ONE. The Japanese actually have a fascination with the black community, maybe you should go and watch some Japanese TV, or read a magazine, they love the black community.
Even though the main character is white, this has been a choice by developers for almost 3 decades because it appeals on a larger scale to the mass market.
But the simple notion that you think that zombies cannot be black is racist in itself, and you cannot fight that fact, my good sir. You don’t want “gross misrepresentation”? Why don’t you look at your own community first? Is it not your own community that perpetuates life into being proud if you are poor, and almost celebrating the fact that they murder their own race to get ahead in life? This isn’t the white mans work, this is all your community’s wonderful clusterfuck of twisted morals and hate-laced entertainment that takes the race as a whole in a backwards direction. You want respect? Get your rappers off the air, stop producing movies like “How High” and “Who’s Your Caddy” so it doesn’t look like you have a room-temperature IQ, stop your infighting, stop separating yourself from the melting pot of the Americas by crying foul at everything we do. At some point, you are going to have to realize that the white community just doesn’t even care anymore, we just don’t have hate and anger towards the black community anymore, we aren’t keeping anyone down, and realize your community leaders are trying to combat voilence within your own comminuty above all else.
The next article comes from BlackLooks, stating that it’s the white mans job to destroy black to save humanity. Why does this make me almost upset to see such idiocy on the internet? People read one article and start jotting down thoughts that have no facts, prior knowledge, or right to even comment on. The line “I have a job to do and I’m gonna see it through.” is Chris stating that he is trying to stop the Umbrella corperation from spreading the T-Virus, or the Plagas as we know it now, not some KKK mission, jackass.
You have to love when people are quick to jump on the easy subjects and not the others. Do we all remember San Andreas? Where were all of you when the game literally made a huge joke out of early 90’s black communities? Gross misrepresentation led to huge sales and no one did a damn thing about it, why? Because the main character was black, he could kill white people, but apparently when the opposite race has the control, everything is OK.
Sickening how stupid racists are.
I like how you speak for all whites.
Amen, jesus christ i dont the people realise how freaking racist towards white people they are. I also reccomend viewing the original poster from blacklooks blog, she goes on to insult us more.
We need people like you campaigning for our right to have this game, mail me if you need any help
Quick question… not that I agree with the original two (racist) posters… but uh… I’m an avid consumer of anime and a member of our uni’s otaku society. As far as I, and everyone else in the club, believe… the Japanese are one of the most xenophobic and racist societies in the modern world. I recall one of their prominent baseball stars making racist comments about Koreans lately and being applauded for it. I haven’t seen anything wrt blacks, but I can only assume that their xenophobia extends equally… am I wrong in this?
Actually, the Japanese media thinks that Blacks are neanderthals worthy of mockery. It is you who needs to watch some Japanese TV.
Your post here is also full of a lot of the typical racist garbage we here all the time. Your no better than the original blogger.
people who see racism where there isn’t any racism are wrong but they’re not racists. you’re as pompous and unconvincing as that guy is. is there no one on earth who can write about video games and culture without talking about “gross stupidity” and “half a brain” and calling people jackasses and racists when there’s a disagreement? i guess the stereotype of people who play video games must be true as well.
Wow…its pretty funny, most of the comment posters on the article on blacklooks seemed to be against her, but here it seems to opposite.
Anyway, I totally agree with you man, I hope more bloggers post stuff like this. And I REALLY hope Capcom doesn’t decided to change anything because RE5 looks awesome.
Personally, when I saw the trailer, I was thinking about how awesome the game looked, not about how the zombies were black…jesus people like that make me sick.
josh- origami kid: “campaigning for our right to have this game”
jesus christ, do people actually think that because two bloggers have criticized an unreleased video game that the Game Police are going to come and censor your games and take your console away and you need to freedom fight for your white rights
news flash, no matter what happens you will be able to purchase this game easily and there will be no impact on you personally whatsoever
also to the original dipshit poster, “get your rappers off the air”, do you think there is a big council of black people who sits around and decides what happens
“we aren’t glorifying being poor and killing each other enough, increase the rap flow by 23% immediately!”
i mean i’m sure there’s a big council of white and japanese people who decided that the next resident evil game would take place in africa so that kids could be indoctrinated into killing blacks
these people are wrong about this game being racist but you are roughly twenty times as stupid, when you get that raise at mcdonald’s and move out of your mom’s basement maybe you should meet some black people and have an idea of what’s going on in the world
Deathsludgepirate’s edit: For anyone who even takes a minute to read my location, I live in Trenton, NJ, the white population is less than 5%, Trenton Central High School has a graduating class consisting of only 1% whites of 700 students. I have lived here all my life, I date a girl who is a mix of black/hispanic and white as well, I kind of think I “know” what’s it’s like to coexist with the black community.
Oh, and another thing, I have my own apartment (not living in my mothers basement, which made me laugh to myself), you see, being in the Trenton Police Academy helps pay the bills, bro.
