    Nintendo can fuck off with this ploy. They’ve sued the living shit out of anyone and everyone, including people just opshop selling retro Nintendo games and consoles; leading to hatred and disgust by, once avid, Nintendo gamers and fans; and now, suddenly, they love the gays? Fuck that lie up their money shitting shitter hole!

      I get it, I also agree Nintendo is an awful, greedy corporation that happens to make fun games from time to time. However, this is a pretty big deal in Japan. For a company to openly support a still quite socially, culturally taboo topic there, is pretty crazy to see.

      Anyway, I guess my point is, if they’re condoning and supporting the advancement of civil rights for a stigmatized demographic, I think that’s important, even if the company is still a shitty, greedy husk.

    Nintendo is one of the most aggressively greedy, anti-consumer, capitalist companies on the planet. Don’t be fooled by their no-effort rainbow capitalism. They would throw us all under the bus in an instant if it benefitted them financially.

          Surely the deeply religious Chris Pratt doesn’t have any problematic views on gay people. The same Chris Pratt who has worn a Three Percenter hat, a known white supremacist org that his brother is a part of.
