Women ruined gaming again…
Note: This is my first EVER scripted & researched video essay commentary video! Leave a like to let me know if you want more of this kind of video in the future!

This video is interesting insofar as it's the creator's first venture into video commentary. Due to the hype surrounding GTA6, the fascist/anti-feminist backlash bleeds into the mainstream and now people who had previously not been aware of the fascist/anti-feminist content on social media are exposed to it. [Most of the fascist/anti-feminist content creators she mentions are the usual suspects of fascist/anti-feminist content and have been at it for years.]

She's not wrong.

Even though it's the usual suspects complaining about women existing automatically making something woke, their posts and videos are getting huge amounts of views and support. She's right to call this out.

Women existing in games doesn't automatically ruin them and those that are espousing those views are getting a lot of attention.

The video is a response to misogynistic chuds claiming that the new shitty crime game is “woke” because it has a - GASP - female in it.

A screenshot of Star Treks ferengis gasping in horror.

Presumably an ironic title?

Yes, the title is deliberately ironic.
