Comment on Kamala Harris' 'Fortnite' map bans guns, has less than 400 people playing

  You asked for an explanation and got it. The rage-bait is getting to say ‘she took away our guns!’ In a video game. One where guns are optional anyway.

  I asked for an explanation and got posturing. I am directly asking you: if that’s not what you meant, what do you mean? Your inability to answer is not somehow my fault. Anyone can tell what this is about. That’s the entire reason you posted it.

    That’s a whole lot of words to say “I know you asked how this is ragebait, I just don’t have an answer for you since there’s nothing in this article indicate or encouraging outrage. Sorry!”

      Literally just told you again the second sentence. A sentence beginning “the rage-bait is.” Do you need help with English?

        Seriously? Your sentence was this:

        The rage-bait is getting to say ‘she took away our guns!’ In a video game.

        There’s nothing about “she took away our guns in a videogame” that should incite rage or anger…right? Like, what would be the concern exactly? Kamala banning shooting games?

        Or maybe I’m missing something. Why would “she took away our guns in a videogame” rile people up? What would they be riled up about, exactly? Guns going missing in a videogame?
