Yup, it’s that classic fake outrage bullshit that permeates the cringiest corners of social media. They need to indulge in these performative contests to signal “superior” virtue over logical moderates who cooly observe that symbols on a screen are not intrinsically hateful & are objectively incapable of harm. People acting & realizing shitty ideologies are capable of harm. Stopping them is the furthest thing from denouncing a symbol.
They’re “fighting fascism” they claim. Are they, though? If objecting over symbols “stopped fascists”, no one’s ever seen it.
They’re claiming these symbols send messages of hate. What’s the “message of hate” here? These sun-related symbols (fitting the game’s sun & rune theme) are vague.
They’re stroking their justice boners over some unearned sense of accomplishment that they “fought the good fight”. Denouncing symbols is the least meaningful opposition or rational discourse: it doesn’t challenge shitty ideas or their adherents. It does absolutely nothing.
Irrational losers, however, don’t like critical thought. Discrediting their bullshit sense of superiority & accomplishment (at doing nothing meaningful despite feeling like they are) offends them.
