DOOM: The Fake Outrage

Recently I've been having a lot of arguments with people here about how British socialism screwed everything up in the UK in the 1970s. Would be interested in maybe some kind of refutal of this?

What do you mean by this? I'm a big Seinfeld fan and a big Shaun fan and I can't work out what you mean...

One thing that I'm disappointed that you didn't seem to notice, is that all these anti SJWs (wheather it was intentional or not) successfully dogwhisted dehumanizing racism. They pretty much copypasted /pol/'s framing device.

A good video! Though I really don't see how anyone could look at the lines in the trailer positively. Even under the leftist lens of "Corporations and for-profit motives are evil and will lead us to our doom", they still use the narrative a chunk of the folks among the right use, i.e. The Deep State/Corporations controlled by Jewish people are using ~*~ evil migrants~*~ to destroy western civilization and are downplaying the damage to keep people from doing anything. Like, that's still happening within the narrative of the game and at least from the trailer I don't feel it speaks well for itself especially with the dogwhistle-y kind of language.

Timely/topical and about a fairly light topic. SHAUN, ARE YOU OK?!

thank u for this, actually v insightful about how that community works and it's honestly so sad that so many impressionable kids are still falling for the "SJW's wanna delete your hobbies!!!1!1!" nonsense.

11:55 "... it was kind of a bad trailer." seems the opposite to me. If you can produce a narrative that can be interpreted positively and resonate for anyone across the political perspective, and get them to buy your product. You've done a good ass job making a trailer. Edit: at the end of the video, it seems you agree!

You've made a few videos now about how the 'angry SJW' is largely a facade of the right. And I think that's worth doing, and I thought this was a very good video. But just some food for thought: some people on the left do actually get angry over relatively minor things, especially young people who are just now starting to notice prejudice in the world around them and haven't yet realized how exhausting it is to make a big deal out of it every time it shows up in the world. I certainly used to be like that when I was 14-15. Certainly, we want to portray ourselves as reasonable, and the left largely is reasonable, but I fear that without painting a nuanced vision of the left, it becomes too easy for anti-SJWs to find just one real example of unreasonable anger and invalidate all this. Contra's early videos are really good about acknowledging this. Idk, I'm not trying to say there's anything wrong with this video, I enjoyed it a lot, and I have a lot of respect for anyone who's willing to wade through piles of racism and "not racism but..." to make something like this. It's just a thought I had. Keep up the good work.

This was the Seinfeld of Shaun videos but it was very good regardless.

It's not exactly like Fallout 4 advertised itself on it's exploration of the decline of personal morals in the face of wartime jingoism, militant fascism emerging in a crony capitalist society, or the casual acceptance of racial internment. And on the whole other side it's not like Fallout 2 was marketed for it's jabs at minorities and appeal to the same jingoism.

A note, I think Fallout 76 is still in the land of too early to say similar to Doom Eternal. As one of the dev's straight up said Woodie Gurthie is one of the top creative inspirations. Just seemed a bit lazy to say the marketing may be indicative an unreleased, and citing other marketing of another unreleased product as why.

@2:39 you block out a youtubers face in their thumbnail, but in the collages of all the outrage video thumbnails @2:59 and some other parts their face isn't blocked out. Don't know if that's one of the things you noticed while uploading for you to fix, but I thought I'd point it out to be safe. Great video btw. I hate antisjw outrage because it spreads across the internet like a goddamned virus. Anything to help make these guys look like the idiots that they are is fantastic.

Great video as always! I didn't see my name in the credits though. I thought I got into them this time. :(

Thank you for videos like this. You're a one man "pro sjw" response team I'm the (groan) culture wars.

I'm so glad our entire political discussions we are now able to have on the ideas spreading Internet are now going to be responding to mindless brainless click bait obsessed nerds shrieking 'DUHH DUHH LOOK AT DA SJW LOLZ THEY EXPRESSED A MILD OPINION ABOUT MA FAVOURITE VIDEO FAME WAA WAA ME SO UNHAPPY" for all of time until everyone wants to stick a live drill into their forehead from the utter mind numbing fucking tedious boredom of it all.

O, and when it comes to purchasing Doom Eternal..... you can alwaya just move on right? It's not like there isn't already countless shooter games you can buy already.

I guess eyerolling means SJWs are triggered? Sounds like kind of a low bar. In fact, I'm rolling my eyes just thinking about. All the way into the back of my eye sockets.

Oh, hell yes—I instantly thought of your Cuphead video when I saw the posts about how DOOM Eternal was going to trigger the libtards epic style. Can't wait to watch after work!

yay!! so excited

Ahh i love that left tube is so synchronized in uploads but it leaves 3 weeks of the month without D:

My day just got better
