Because it's their game? I don't play animal crossing so I don't understand how this works, but it could look as Nintendo is endorsing a political campaign and I'm not sure they would want that.
you'd think if Biden raped someone, it'd be all over the news, but I can't recall hearing anythingEven though I'll be voting Democrat regardless Biden and Kamala aren't exactly the type of people who I feel great about openly supporting. I don't want signs for a rapist in my yard.

care to enlighten us?
Except some people here do like it. It seems more like a gaming side thing tbh.
Why would they not be ok with free advertising? They can't control what their users do with their games and it's not like this is obscene or objectionable
Anyone can create this signs in-game, so unless Nintendo creates specific restrictions this is just the feature being used as a political platform.Because it's their game?

Most of my villagers would be fine with that except maybe the Republican eagle. Also, Nook is a libertarian.
We're on the internet, so we have to reflexively hate everything.
I have a hunch that they didn't do this for the people on Era.
Alright we should put this on the Etcetera part aswell and then we'll see what the optics are. I personally think its great it just shows who the Biden campaign is trying to target. I wonder if Trump is going to do the same and get himself in a game now.Except some people here do like it. It seems more like a gaming side thing tbh.

Go for it.Alright we should put this on the Etcetera part aswell and then we'll see.
Huh? Most people on era support Biden.
Then I know whose trees to cut down.
Did you keep up with that story? ....actually let's not rehash thatEven though I'll be voting Democrat regardless Biden and Kamala aren't exactly the type of people who I feel great about openly supporting. I don't want signs for a rapist in my yard.
You've never heard of Tara Reade?you'd think if Biden raped someone, it'd be all over the news, but I can't recall hearing anything
care to enlighten us?
Ok, but what about Buzz. He's that kind of republican that doesn't like Trump and will still vote for him.apollo is NOT a republican he is a gay leather daddy and that is FINAL
oh that lolYou've never heard of Tara Reade?
A sexual assault allegation against Joe Biden has ignited controversy
A woman says Biden assaulted her in 1993 and has filed a criminal complaint.www.vox.com
Social democrats have been using rose emojis in their handles for years, I don't see what that has to do with the Biden endorsement.The ones who don't want it is the ones who didn't vote but bitch about it, who are not even from the U.S. but somehow know all about U.S. politics , or voted for a certain someone who gets all pissy and use rose emojis in their handle because he endorsed Biden.
It's cringe because Joe Biden is doing it. If Trump were doing it, that would be cringe too. You think either of them even know what animal crossing is? It come across as major pandering. With someone like AOC, who actually personally went and visited people's islands, that was cool because it didn't feel forced or like something she was doing just for weird PR points.I don't get comments like this, because gamers like to swear up and down that "gaming isn't just for children!" (which is true) but then as soon as something like this happens, it's like "uh, why are they trying so hard to be hip with the kids?"
Zillions of adults played Animal Crossing this year. It cast an incredibly wide net. It's part of the culture, now. Gamers seem to want to have it both ways; they want gaming to be mainstream and "accepted" and then at the same time they want it to be like this cool insider thing and if any outsider tries to interact with it, it's "cringe."
If gaming is mainstream, stuff like this is going to happen.
You must not have, because I'm pretty sure she was proven to be a pathological liar, last I heard. Haven't heard a peep about it in months since it came out that she lied about her credentials for her day job.You've never heard of Tara Reade?

You think that Animal Crossing is forcing you to put these signs up in your game?Even though I'll be voting Democrat regardless Biden and Kamala aren't exactly the type of people who I feel great about openly supporting. I don't want signs for a rapist in my yard.
For me, no. This voting season is going to be extremely violent and filled so much BS, that people will need to escape. Having it constantly in your face is not good for a lot of people's mental health.Are the people saying eww, the same people that moan about politics in video games?
People on Era don't like anything. It's a big site with a lot of opinions so you'll always get negative ones. Lots of people here enjoy being down on everything.
I tend to believe that she withheld certain details until she felt it absolutely necessary as it was surely an immensely traumatic experience - both the assault and having people like you turn a blind eye.oh that lol
of course, how could I forget the woman that may have jeopardized a bunch of sexual assault cases with her lies
They aren't forcing you to display these signs.For me, no. This voting season is going to be extremely violent and filled so much BS, that people will need to escape. Having it constantly in your face is not good for a lot of people's mental health.
I don't care about politics in games, but if Trump were to do this, the internet would melt. I am not a Trump fan in the slightest. I absolutely loathe the man.
If we could argue politics exclusively through Animal Crossing, I think the world would be a better place.For me, no. This voting season is going to be extremely violent and filled so much BS, that people will need to escape. Having it constantly in your face is not good for a lot of people's mental health.

No but go off I guess.You think that Animal Crossing is forcing you to put these signs up in your game?
Ah, the "you must be a trump supporter if you don't unequivocally love Biden/Harris" replies coming in hot
Weird take. ERA's an extremely negative site.
What allegations piling up? What is going on in this thread?With all of the allegations piling up on Joe and the horrible stuff that Kamala did during her time as AG and now they're trying to play it off to the kids that they're hip and cool. If Trump did this the fucking outrage that there'd be.
