Extremists Feeling the FAFO: Jimmy Kimmel, Twitch, and Gaming

FAFO Culture is Hitting Extremists Like a Truck When silence is complicity, consequences follow. Charlie Kirk’s unjust killing detonated a political and media firestorm that’s now exposing how platforms, late-night shows, and game studios behave themselves...or don’t. Congress just yanked Twitch CEO Dan Clancy into the spotlight, Jimmy Kimmel just got canned from for running his big mouth, and game developers who thought they could joke about a man’s death are getting a firsthand look that FAFO is real and it's coming for the extremists.For the first time in over a decade, gamers everywhere are watching the scoreboard shift. The Spark That Lit the Fuse: Charlie Kirk’s Death On September 10, 2025, conservative activist Charlie Kirk was tragically shot and killed while debating at an event at Utah Valley University. The alleged shooter, 24-year-old Tyler Robinson, was eventually arrested and charged with […]

ProZD and the Great Anime Authentic Voice Casting Meltdown

When it comes to “authentic casting” in anime, nobody’s been louder about it than SungWon Cho, better known as ProZD.For years, he’s been the guy standing on the soapbox yelling that roles should go to “authentic” voices that match the race or ethnicity of a character. But when the money came calling and suddenly he was the one voicing a white dude, his entire conviction crumbled faster than a filler arc in Bleach.And when people started pointing out the hypocrisy? He did what every online personality does when the heat turns up: locked his Twitter account, blocked critics, and dipped out of the conversation.  The Bleach Casting Chaos If you missed it, here’s the recap: Back in October 2023, anime Twitter caught fire when it was revealed that Anairis Quiñones would be voicing Yoruichi in Bleach: TYBW, replacing long-time actress Wendee Lee.

Tales of the Shire and 9 Other Sweet Baby Inc. Flops to Avoid

Tales of the Shire Trips Over Its Own Hairy Feet and 9 Other Sweet Baby Inc. Flops If you’ve been anywhere near gaming news this week, you’ve probably heard the soft thud of Tales of the Shire hitting the market - and then promptly falling into the compost heap behind Mordor. What was supposed to be a cozy, heartwarming Hobbit life sim has turned into yet another cautionary tale in the saga of Sweet Baby Inc. (SBI) involvement in modern gaming. PSA Reminder: Sweet Baby Inc. For the uninitiated, Sweet Baby Inc. is a Canadian "narrative consultancy" led by Kim Belair that claims to want to help studios tell better stories through inorganic heaps of diversity, equity, and inclusion...hard pass. But to gamers who haven't been sipping on the leftist propaganda Kool-Aid, their influence has become a scarlet letter: you […]

Collective Shout’s Censorship Crusade Against Gamers

There’s always gotta be a villain, huh?Once upon a time, it was Jack Thompson screaming about how Grand Theft Auto was going to turn us all into criminals. Then it was Tipper Gore slapping parental advisory stickers on everything. And now? Say hello to Collective Shout - Australia’s self-proclaimed moral watchdogs who have recently been attacking (and getting dunked on by) popular content creators online, pressured major credit card processors into cutting ties with game developers whose content doesn’t align with their "values."  Image: Madam Savvy Dancing on Collective Shout What’s happening now is the same ol’ slippery slope: a group of ideologues trying to decide what’s acceptable for everyone else, using scare tactics, social media outrage, and backdoor lobbying to quietly strangle creative expression in games and anime.Let’s be clear: nobody’s here to defend actual CSAM or illegal content and, yes, these […]

Mortal Kombat 2 Is Doomed: How Wokeness Killed the Franchise

Once upon a time (not that long ago), Mortal Kombat 1 (2023) looked like it had a chance to reinvent the franchise in all the right ways. A full reboot. A clean slate. A chance to create a new golden age of fighting games that could compete with Street Fighter, Tekken, and whatever else the FGC is clinging to. But what did we get instead? A fatality...and not the fun kind. Image: NetherRealm Studios and Warner Bros Nuking the Fun out of Mortal Kombat | ReportAFK A franchise face-plant into a pit of DEI checklists, sterilized character designs, and creatively bankrupt “reimaginings.” And now, with Mortal Kombat 2 looming on the horizon, it’s looking less like a triumphant sequel and more like a bloated corpse twitching on the mat. Still twitching, sure...but stone cold dead all the same. Did Sweet Baby […]

Subnautica 2 Delay: Allegations of Bonus Sabotage and Woke Slop

Ah, corporate gaming. Where the graphics are real, but the loyalty is procedurally generated.Subnautica 2 has officially been delayed until 2026. Sure, game delays happen. But this one reeks of something far fishier than the leviathans. Reports suggest the sudden year-long pushback might just coincidentally align with a conveniently impossible-to-get-now $250 million bonus payout promised to developers. That milestone was allegedly within reach for 2025, right before Krafton tossed the studio’s founding leadership overboard.Funny how that works, right? From “Ready for Early Access” to “Oops, Maybe Next Year” Let’s set the stage:Just days before being shown the corporate door, Unknown Worlds co-founder Charlie Cleveland was confidently posting that Subnautica 2 was ready for Early Access back in July 2025. You know, the date they’d been building toward for years? That confidence didn’t age well.We know that the game is ready for early access […]

Reddit’s War on Free Speech: Bans, Bias, and Silencing Users

Reddit’s Woke Mod Problem Is Killing the Platform Reddit used to be the “front page of the internet.” A glorious hub of memes, mods, and mayhem. A place where free speech (and let’s be honest, a lot of stupid comments) could thrive. But lately? It’s looking more like the gated community from Get Out, complete with ideological HOA Karens slapping bans on anyone who so much as blinks in the wrong subreddit. Let’s be real. Reddit moderation has always been a bit of a mess. But the political and ideological rot is now in full bloom, and the problem isn’t just annoying anymore. It’s actively destroying discussion, chasing away logic, and turning what were once lively gaming hubs into echo chambers policed by activist mods with God complexes. Banned for Breathing: Reddit’s Guilt by Association You might think getting banned […]

Gamers vs. Gender Ideology: SEGA’s Kaleidoscope Problem

“Gotta go fast” has officially turned into “Gotta go woke.” In a move that sparked confusion, frustration, and a fair bit of gamer whiplash, SEGA has joined the latest Pride Month corporate campaign by updating their logo with rainbow colors and announcing a fundraising partnership with the UK-based Kaleidoscope International Trust. What seems like harmless virtue signaling on the surface actually runs much deeper once you follow the pixelated breadcrumbs.Turns out, this isn’t just about a colorful logo or tweeting out #LoveIsLove. SEGA’s proudly aligning itself with a hyper-political organization actively working to push extreme gender ideology into international policy. So let’s break it down and talk about why gamers everywhere have reason to be side-eyeing the blue blur’s handlers these days. Who Is Kaleidoscope Trust, and Why Should Gamers Care? Kaleidoscope International Trust describes itself as an organization fighting for “a future […]

Sweet Baby Inc. and the Ghost in the Startup Machine Let’s be real - Sweet Baby Inc.
