I have an aversion to smug faces on thumbnails. Don't wanna click 'em. I'll hand it to her though, she knows how to get people's attention. Kudos to Anita for upsetting half the internet.
The world Anita lives in is quite frightening. An act of mercy, saving a woman from a fate worse than death has been turned into something that demeans the woman it's happening to? And trying to draw a parallel from that to domestic violence where physical violence is justified if a woman is acting out of line, because games don't exist in a vacuum.
Then violence in games period should be done away with. Because the cultural ramifications of violence in general don't exist in a vacuum either, right?
I mean, she said games that use mercy kills trivialize women's suffering.
I guess the suffering of the person that has to kill them is even more trivial because that's beneath mention either. I mean. Pfft. It's not like it's an act of love or anything.
Not that Anita apparently knows anything about love...
Bad guys killing someone's girlfriend isn't about taking someone's precious loved one away. It's about stealing a possession.
