That's not Rockstar being "woke"; that's the Australian government and our classification rules being shit. That's always been the case; we've banned/rated R a lot of things that are MA in other countries.

Apparently somebody forgot to tell Steam though, since.. you know.. I'm playing it as it was bought on my PC. In Australia.. and not from Kmart.

So I'm gonna be honest; I legit don't understand what the "woke" crying about the GTA6 trailer is about. There's black people and hispanics in it? HISPANICS? IN A CITY BASED ON MIAMI? Say it ain't so.. where officially, 70% of the Miami population is fucking hispanic and of the remaining population 75% is black. Whites only make up 14% of the total population. But this is Rockstar returning to Vice City. A place they've done before. They've only ever done 3 US cities in 10 games.

There was also black people in all the previous games. Asians and Russians too. There was even Hari Krishnas.. and you could kill every one of them equally. In GTA San Andreas you played as a black character. In GTA 5 a black character was 1 of the 3 characters you played.

I saw early outrage at the rumours/leaks that it's "gOiNg WoKe bEcAuSe yOu CaN pLaY aS a GiRL12!!!11" .. it's quite clearly based on Natural Born Killers with a bit of Bonnie and Clyde mixed in. Really woke. Then again they named an add-on to GTA4 after a gay character 15 years ago.

I straight up don't get it. GTA has always been a pisstake on the world; liberals and conservatives alike, and as that youtube vid said it "holds a mirror up". Created by a Scottish company; the same one that used to hurl Lemmings off a cliff.

And I still don't understand "the message".

For me, the thing about the right screaming about "wokeness" is exactly the fucking same as the left screaming about "inclusion" or LGBTQI+ or anything else. It's all white noise from retards. The whole fucking lot of them are absolute window licking spanners and can fuck off and die.
