wait, wait, is that not the world I am already living in?
and the best part about that token white male character (who always has to be an insecure cringe cuck, much like yourself) is that they have the last name berg, stein, or horowitz
aka they are not really white or males at all
most foreigners watch cable tv inside America and just assume that half the country is black the rest is Hispanic and a majority of both groups are gay in one form or another......
show me a commercial on tv that isn't following this model or following the race mixing strategy in one form or another
if this were a basketball team it would have 13 midgets, 3 paraplegics, and a few blind people and I would be told that this is what our countries demographics are currently made up of
which it isn't
as far as I know, from what I see we are at 100% race mixing according to the TV

I mean this is realistic right?

incidentally, about one in twenty humans self-identifies as gay versus straight when asked. another one in twenty humans refuses to answer the question, so probably also gay, or perhaps file under "it's complicated". you appear to think that a much smaller percentage of those folks care whether or not they are represented in various media.

don't tell me that the day that straight white people started getting represented in the media as just part of the mixing bowl instead of a terrible stereotype wouldn't make you feel at least a little better about your place in the world.
if your first reaction is to disagree, try thinking about it again, but this time, use the power of your imagination! imagine feeling for your whole life like a not normal person, and then slowly but surely being accepted as a normal person by the rest of society. i think it would be exhausting to have to wait a lifetime to be accepted as an equal member of society, judged on words, action and merit, not skin color or sexual preference. i think it's a good thing for people to feel accepted like that.
once you get to know a person, all bets are off of course. after all they could be a complete douche.
disclaimer: i have no idea if you are a straight white male, but i'll assume that for the sake of this discussion, but it won't matter either way. this entire post, and the thread in which it resides, is pointless, and it will do nothing to change either thought or behavior.

questions
1) should companies (ie tv studios) not pander to the majority of their target audience?
2) what does any of this have to do with overwatch; a cartoon laser beam shooter?
3) what does any of this have to do with hating virtue signaling?

Nothing wrong with interracial couples...
It's just not the norm and seems over-represented in media; forced/agenda driven.
Kalergi.

Overwatch is an experiment on how good your situational awareness is because the mechanics outside of a few characters are really simple
I like to play MT and while it's not mechanically demanding(outside of primal rage with winston) it takes an insane amount of knowledge/anticipation. Ult tracking, when to engage, where to engage, etc etc

8Tf is like the anti tribes, aka accidentally creating something ****ing amazing and instead of rolling with it, burying your head in the sand and not realizing what actually makes your game fun
Imagine if dynamics saw skiing and patched it out and forced everyone to play capture and hold
Just a **** up of absolutely monumental proportions. Respawn sucks. I mean we had a poster here who was an employee and was totally silent when we asked real questions about the direction they were going
I am full on maga reeeeeeeeeee about reeeeeeeeeespawn, **** those guyx

iirc ult status is revealed on kill cam so that is pretty easily tracked with basic communication between team members
ult tracking is not insane
