Must be suffocating living in the US during election year to be honest. I live a continent away and I still can’t seem to escape Republican/democrat discourse
How do US bros get away from being bombarded with politics???
I'm not even joking. I get like 5 or 6 generic campaign letters in the mail for both camps every single day. I don't even check my mail bos anymore because of it. Have everything important sent to a PO box
I get constant flyers in the mail, spam texts and calls (most get blocked), and commercials on TV. It makes me not want to vote at all since it doesn't matter. The electoral college makes the decision.
It is 100% not official from Epic, it's just a creative mode made that's "officially" made by the campaign team. Trump could do the same thing if he wanted but he's busy doing actually useful PR
No, when it says official, it means the official map of the Harris Walz campaign, not official by Fortnite. Lots of other companies and people have made "official" Fortnite maps without it. If you don't believe me, look at the Red Cross' Fortnite map. That one is "official", but I'm sure Epic Games wouldn't endorse a map encouraging kids to play by the Geneva Convention and use non-violence whenever possible in a game where a main goal is executing downed potentially unarmed combatants.
"Advertising" sure buddy. Or could it be that the games journalists do some journalism when something big happens in a game? Something like a US presidential campaign making a fucking Fortnite map?
Yes. They want more regulations on social media platforms. Considering Facebook/zuck admitted they were pressured by the White House to censor certain information, the threat is now mostly aimed at Twitter because you can obviously say/see anything on there, including calling the current administration out of their bullshit which they obviously don’t like. But they are totally only doing it cause some people said the n word on Twitter and no other reason right
Suppressed during when people were looking at candidates and their families in great detail to discern their character for an election but then released after the results of the election are out, sure bro.
And their families, brother, if someone is that morally bankrupt and keep getting away with it even with proof and has someone like the president as their dad, and you'd have to ask who is helping get out of trouble you must be trolling.
Still not the point, the point is them surpressing the news. Nepotism happens and it sucks yeah, but getting someone out of trouble goes a step bit beyond nepotism imo.
I for one prefer my billionaire corporate overlords mining and selling my personal data to whoever will pay and using their platforms to sow civil unrest and unfounded conspiracy theories.
So you're looking at this very black and white. It's either full freedom to post anything you want or total repression dictator style. And in your mind there is no good middle ground there where a few things would rightfully be banned from being posted.
Who is arguing? We are just talking about our gratitude for the government's watch over people and preventing them from having wrong ideas. Happy cake day 🎉
Oh twitter should be nuked. That shit hole was already bad before Elon and now it's an abyss of right wing retards. Hopefully if Kamala wins they start digging into Elons connections to Putin and fuck him up.
Everyone saying this is targeting children too young to vote is a buffoon. This study says 90% of players are above the age of 18: https://saufter.io/fortnite-usage-and-statistics/
You all are repeating a joke from 10 years ago. Well guess what? Those 8 year olds from 10 years ago are now... gasp

It probably is real but anyone can make a fortnite creative map, no oversight from the developers needed.

Zealousideal-Talk787@reddit
Thank you, that’s proper clarification. They are within their rights to make such a map, but I will fuckin judge them for it.
poncho99999@reddit
Oh same for sure. Extremely weird approach with a week left. Reminds me of the Biden in Animal Crossing stunt they pulled last election

Did they say they will censor something? I don't know what you are talking about
IgotAseaView@reddit
Yes. They want more regulations on social media platforms.

But they are totally only doing it cause some people said the n word on Twitter and no other reason right
ujelly_fish@reddit
Trump also was petitioning to censor information on Twitter like the Vance dossier. There’s no party that has an edge on censorship this cycle.
AnotherScoutTrooper@reddit
Trump petitions to have the Vance dossier censored, Elon bans one account: instant uproar, 2 straight days of media coverage.
Mark Zuckerberg literally says that the Biden/Harris campaign directed him to censor the Hunter Biden story during the 2020 election: silence.
There is a party with an edge on censorship. You’re on a website controlled by it.
ujelly_fish@reddit
The Hunter Biden laptop story has been discussed ad nauseam since it happened, you are wrong.
AlucardFromCastle@reddit
Not when it mattered.
ujelly_fish@reddit
Yes when it mattered and every day after that, over and over again.
AlucardFromCastle@reddit
Suppressed during when people were looking at candidates and their families in great detail to discern their character for an election but then released after the results of the election are out, sure bro.
ujelly_fish@reddit
Yes, if you cared about character, you’d definitely be voting for Trump.
AlucardFromCastle@reddit
Not the point, again.
Dyslexic_Wizard@reddit
Good thing hunter biden wasn’t on the ticket.
AlucardFromCastle@reddit
And their families, brother, if someone is that morally bankrupt and keep getting away with it even with proof and has someone like the president as their dad, and you'd have to ask who is helping get out of trouble you must be trolling.
Dyslexic_Wizard@reddit
Ah yes, as opposed to the guy that gave his family jobs, and overrode security clearance decisions for his son in law. Clutch those pearls more.

Just say "I love licking corporate boot" and move on.

ah yes because being in favor of censorship is such a corpo position
Hedonistbro@reddit
Is it censorship or is it regulation to protect children on the internet?
You probably think anti-cp laws are censorship.
Ne0n1691Senpai@reddit
of course your first thought was some degenerate cp argument, you guys just cant stop thinking of children for some reason, fucking weird man

Anti-CP laws aren’t censorship, unless you say they’re a good idea, in which case they’re suddenly transphobic.

So you're looking at this very black and white. It's either full freedom to post anything you want or total repression dictator style. And in your mind there is no good middle ground there where a few things would rightfully be banned from being posted.

I hear they even try to prevent nonces from trying to lure children using social media. Thought crime.

How about you watch your own kids and not make the the government do it for you
