Downtown Khazan: Ice Cold Utopia

[Nik Hasta]

No, the words are just being interpreted in a different way than I meant them. Acknowledging something is racist isn't outrage. Outrage involves rage, scandal, negative consequences to follow, that sort of thing.

There is merit to acknowledging something Neeson almost did is bad. There is no merit to destroying the Neeson today for what he almost did but didn't do. It is a waste of time and energy that encourages everyone who ever once almost did something really bad to cover it up.

This argument would apply equally to anybody. Neeson simply happens to be a prominent example.

Again, so what's your ideal here?

Nothing happens?

Highly famous man admits to conspiring to commit racial violence and your ideal consequence is...?

Fill me in here.

Also, most people who secretly committed racist crimes aren't going to be made more likely to tell the world about it if Liam Neeson doesn't suffer any consequences. They are more likely going to be emboldened to do more racist crimes.

Fill me in here.

My ideal is people acknowledging and talking about what Liam Neeson almost did, how it was racist and indicative of anger management issues. And then not demanding anything actually happen to Liam Neeson since he didn't actually harm anybody and agrees it was a horrible thing he almost did.

Note your different premise here. Neeson did not commit a racist crime, which I imagine is part of why he thought talking about it would be okay.

Cooooool, so no consequences for a dude admitting to carrying a weapon with an intent to beat up a black person simply because they are black.

Sssssssuper...

Cooooool...

Would you prefer if I said "People who secretly did really racist things,"?

Either works for my sentiment.

Neeson did a really racist and dangerous thing. Him not being held accountable for that simply makes it seem that doing said racist and dangerous thing is actually not that bad.

I think this line of discussion might be heading towards a bad direction, so I request that we put a damper on it for now. Either take it to PM land or the political thread please.

15 years ago people walked away.
I guess they didn't hear Square-Enix say:
Please,
Oh Baby,
Don't go.

Doesn't it have like an 86% rating on metacritic?

Where you lookin"? It has 86% on Metacritic and all of the review sites I've been to sans Polygon scored it similarly to KH2 and slightly higher. Most people are just upset about the ending since spoilers:

Sora dies, though the secret ending shows that he still alive somewhere in Japan. Then there are the people who honestly thought this would be the final game and were angry over being proven wrong.

end of spoilers.
