Humanity overcoming racism by directing all of that against aliens who want to destroy Super Earth is a beautiful thing.

[qu]

If he angered Twitter, that means he's doing something right.

[eptizzy]

Some people just can't seem to understand the difference between "fiction" & "reality". smh

[derpnip]

YOU'VE OFFENDED DOZENS! DO YOU HEAR ME DOZENS!!!

[daviddesrosiers]

For real? Can they do something about their Discord mods? They clean that house up, that'd mean they are serious about clapping back on the nonsense.

2:20 That's the problem with DEI it doesn't try to make the inclusion natural; it makes it forced and then beats you over the head with a bat while sounding like a lecture from HR.

[disalazarg]

Only a deep cultist could take a denial of their ideology as a denial of their existence.

[dantespicysausage]

Shocking since the community manager on discord went ape and destroyed the hype before

3:15
Friendly reminder that, while they're trying to call killing bugs for oil a political statement, they forget Super Earth was founded by Scandinavia, not America.

Edit: 3:40 "DEI is code for criticizing any game that doesn't star white guys"
Helldivers you can't even see the skin tone of the player character, and there's just as many female voices as male voices, which would imply you're playing as men and women from all races present on super earth. Not to mention the opening cutscene showing a mixed race family as THE man talking to you for recruitment.

Took them awhile, also congratulations for them in winning against the gay version of the horus heresy

[weshuiz]

That comment attracted Twitter cops like flies to a lit lamp.

[ephemispriest]

Fun fact: there are decades old games that are still beloved. That are still played. That have been updated and redone and sold again several times.

None of them have ideological nonsense pushed onto the player.

[ghostrath]

Its amusing to me to see the people against racism and sexism are pushing for DEI when by default hiring someone based on sex or color is racist/sexist. Its also quite illegal.

[TurtleChad]

Helldivers 2 is a great game and I hope the people running the show don't make any more mistakes like last time.

[CapitalTeeth]

"I really don't care. Make good games, don't make contemporary political statement"
Their discord mods: *_"You have been banned for putting vomit emoji on lgbt furry art"_*

[ace]

Anyone saw the thumbnail at first glance and thought it was a Rev video?

[terrnoisrp]

a reason why every hell diver were a helmet and same outfit. Unified under one banner, not because how you look or what you identify as. These activist never learn.

[masterfdisguise]

1:48 "2022" instead of 2025... time flies.

[ComposedSage]

It’s simple:

*Don’t force your kinds of “inclusion” and expect people to support it. Make games fun and entertaining without pushing your ideologies only.*

Happy New Year, folks 😎🥳🎊🎆

Never add BRIDGE to your game, either.
