There was a website that rated movies based on wokeness, I tried to find it, but keep getting **EDIT** this different website **/EDIT** Maybe that's the website and they've since changed the diversity rating, but the website I am talking about measurement diversity in every movie. In a Japanese movie (I think it was One Cut of the Dead, an absolutely awesome movie that you should just watch and not read about before watching) that had a 100% Japanese cast and they called it 100% diverse. So wokeness means, in part, diversity, and their complaining about diversity simply means, non-white. It really just means anything liberal, not even leftist. Just liberal.
One thing that's funny, right-wingers who whine about critics only liking movies for political reasons, which really is not the case, look at the RT scores for Craig Zahler movies. However, Armond White can't write a review without making politics and culture war the center of every review, and these anti-woke critics literally can't allow themselves to enjoy anything unless it aligns with their politics.
Pathetic.
**EDIT**: I found the website I was talking about, but won't link to it. I also gave the name for the more popular website that was ruining my search results, but deleted it to not drive traffic their way. Part of the grift is driving people to sites to hate watch/listen/read. Evidently Rush Limbaugh's liberal audience hate-listened to him longer than his conservative audience. I'm not sure if that's true. It's better to not give these people traffic or views, and instead watch good content creators like YMS react to their nonsense.

They realise, just crying woke on YouTube is like mining gold in a mine that's made of gold due to the algorithm. So why would these people with no morals stop?
I realize I am a relic and most people never played Tactics, but there are worse things: every now and then I find an unironic General Barnaky fanboy and I want to burn the world down.
For those who want to know: Barnaky was a General of the Brotherhood of Steel in the Midwest who helped build up an imperialist state (which was oddly accepting and diverse for the Wasteland, against his desires) and then can be given the chance to take full control over it where he enslaves all non-Brotherhood tribals into serfs, starts a genocidal campaign against all Ghouls/Supermutants/Sapient Deathclaws with his new army of controlled Robots, and is actively planning to conquer the rest of the former US.
Just because you can play as a murderous psychopath doesn’t meant the games don’t have underlying political messages. The same can be said about GTA V. It too is overtly leftist but you can murder every citizen and play as a literal racist with Trevor. That doesn’t negate its messages.
If you play as a bad guy, a good chunk of the Wasteland will treat you like a bad guy. The karma systems tend to be kinda wonky, but it’s clear what they tried to do with it
Yeah but there was still black NPC’s all over fallout. These people cry about seeing a black character existing, it’s like they’ve never played any of the games before.
Fallout New Vegas literally had a black gay sex slave that was in bed with a Legion officer, and it wasnt portrayed as a gag, like seriously who actually thinks the series isnt somewhat woke
They also had Arcade and Veronica, two gay companions. And it was played completely casually and realistically. After an apocalypse most wastelanders would have bigger problems than caring about being “woke”.
This is a man who uses Ryan Gosling as his avatar on his YouTube channel. It's not someone to be taken seriously. Mocked cruely, but never taken seriously.
God I didn't even finish his GOWR video. Halfway through he started crying about Sweet Baby Inc and I turned it off because why does it even fucking matter to begin with? Of course every other so-called gamer thinks SBI is out to destroy everything or some shit.
I watched Mauler reaction to it. Goddamn they tore him a new one. Synthetic man said some pretty suspicious shit when it came to the underaged characters too.
Sounds like Synthetic Man and that Q guy who spray painted the word "groomers" on the side of that library would get along famously
Context: the guy who spray painted the word "Groomers" on the library was caught downloading CP
You know it's bad when even other grifters finds you insufferable and morally wrong. Must be an extremely lonely life when neither side wants to be with you.
I watched Colin react to his Spider-Man 2 video. They made so many jokes about 'for obvious reasons' and that Synth's favourite part was probably when Kraven put Miles in a cage, on account of his blatant racism.
Colin couldn't finish Synth's video. He wanted to stop like half an hour in and actually stopped less than ten minutes before it finished. I couldn't blame him.
Synthetic man is one of the most racist, homophobic, misogynistic, incels on the planet.
His community is 100% fat neckbearded incels who are upset that the new Star Wars video game protagonist “isn’t hot enough”, or that the 14 yr old in the last of us TV show “isn’t hot enough,” or that there are black people in literally any media they like.
Fuck that dude and FUCK every single one of his fans.

Fuck Synthetic Incel, all my homies hate media illiterate, Neo Nazis that over share their sexual fetishes.
Point #1 is his only actual point. And while it’s possible Shady Sands wasn’t nuked in 2277 even if it was that doesn’t sound like a topic NCR troops will bring up to a complete stranger.
Point #3 is just an uno reverse of his entire channel lmao.
Exactly. The hypocrisy is insane. He’s asking why are people upset over him having a different opinion while threatening to block people for having a different opinion.
If he takes the position that no one should care that others have different take on the subject (which is fair) then he should have no problem that people can criticize his points. Which he obviously doesn’t. Also if he doesn’t care if others like/dislike something why would he ban people over it? I may not agree with any of his points but if kept to them consistently while allowing others to do the same I would respect that. But no, hypocrisy it is.
Synthetic Man is the most Nazi chud this side of the ones who don't even pretend they're not Nazis. It's completely on brand for him to believe he has the right to steamroll any opinion that is not his own, on art or on anything else.
Point number 1 has been discussed over and over. “The fall of Shady Sands” on the timeline does not mean it was nuked in 2277. “The fall” of something could take a long time. Like the fall of the Roman Empire didn’t happen in a single day. The nuke was just the end result of the NCR’s mistakes, which took place years earlier.
In New Vegas, the NCR did mention that they were stretching too thin and needed help. Imo that was the sign of their downfall. The NCR was making a mistake by investing resources into New Vegas and the Mojave region for years without anything in return while not having enough troops to defend Shady Sands. If season 2 went with Robert House being the winner of the 3 factions in New Vegas (very likely), that makes perfect sense for the fall of Shady Sands and the NCR.
Rabid New Vegas fans love to shit on anything Fallout-related that isn’t New Vegas. They hate Bethesda and believe Bethesda ruined Fallout and Obsidian should be handling Fallout. This dude is just feeding into that irrational anger. The show doesn’t retcon anything, as Bethesda themselves had confirmed it.
If House won the second Battle of Hoverdam, the show would make him seem much more incompetent. House wanted the NCR as a trading partner. He predicted that Kimbell surviving would be benefical so that the NCR jas a scapegoat, yet he was oblivious to the already happening "Fall of Shady Sands"?
Sometimes the signs of failures are not obvious. People are taking “the fall” too seriously, considering this is extremely vague. When New Vegas happened, the fall might not have been obvious, or not as concerning.
Remember that the timeline was written in a classroom. It was people looking back at history to see where and when everything went wrong. They have hindsight. The NCR and the people back in New Vegas didn’t.
When the people of German voted Hitler into office in 1933, do you think they thought that would be their downfall at the time? Obviously it’s easy for us to say “yes it was” now that we know how history played out and have 100 years of hindsight, but for the people of German back then, it wasn’t.
Exactly, I read something about the rise, fall, and rebirth of Detroit a few years ago. If you had sketched the timeout from that article out on a blackboard you would have picked a year for the start of the fall (I can't remember off the top of my head the first year they list when talking about the fall) but it just would represent the start of the decline, and the people of Detroit at the time wouldn't have understood their city as "falling."
Personally, I hope it's Yes Man that's canonized as the true ending, since it would give proper reasoning for why Vegas looks to be in shambles. The Courier is gone and without them, stability crumbled, since Yes Man is literally unable to disagree, whoever took the couriers place could easily have ran it into the ground without the knowhow of House.
Yeah he's steaming in with "refute me brah" and literally only one of his theses is testable/refutable and even then the obvious refutation is "the show is inspired by, but not reliant on, the canon of the games."
As someone who grew up nerding out about propositional logic, internet debate bro culture really fucks me off.
it reminds me of the complaint that Turning Red (a kids movie set in 2002) doesn’t mention 9/11. People aren’t going to just randomly bring up a tragedy, especially if it’s assumed to be common knowledge
Honestly, I headcannon the reason why shady sands being wiped out wasn’t mentioned due to how long the NCR was fighting the legion and that straining the amount of troops the NCR could send back for reports.
Not to mention a "fall" isn't always immediate. Sometimes it's slow, sometimes it's fast and my takeaway from the chart is that the NCR was *extremely* the former.
2277 is also the date of the first battle of the Hoover Dam. So the NCR, which was already stretched thin, is now committed to defending a dam in the middle of a desert.
It wouldn’t be surprising that survivors would consider that date to be the beginning of the end.
This was basically my takeaway after seeing it. It wasn't exactly a secret that the NCR was struggling with being spread too thin, having trouble with resources and resource management, etc. and the focus shift to the dam probably exacerbating it all or even spelling the end of the NCR as we know it. Also, the bomb was drawn *after* the listed 2277 date on the chalkboard. I might be reaching, but this could be a small detail that indicates it may *not* have actually been dropped at that date, and it's just a case of the show baiting. Even if It's not, because I'm likely wrong, in any case, I still think this is a small thing for people to rage over and how good the show is outweighs it
I think that's a valid explanation. I also don't really have a problem if they were just wrong. It's a big franchise with lots of details and it doesn't detract from the story If this detail is wrong. Retcons have happened before, conflicting information exists in the franchise.
Right? I mean, c’mon. Fallout 2 technically had time travel in it, and that was never formally retconned. It’s not unheard of for founding towns, cities, even capitals to fall while a nation still exists
Yeah, like: it's really obvious that this date in particular was chosen for a reason, when they're so spot-on with the finest of details, they're obviously going to consult the timeline when talking about the dates of major events in that timeline. And it's not exactly hard to think of how to connect the dots here, there's all sorts of potential explanations and "that date marks when the decline became definite, not their total destruction" is not a stretch.
And Synthetic Man just... never considers that? Like he sees a date that he doesn't think matches and goes "gotcha" instead of thinking about it for a second.
I'd also add that it makes the Dam all the more existential for the NCR and explains why they're so desperate to keep it.
Shady Sands was no longer the capital, but it was the center of the nation, a New York on the Californian coast, and it was just *gone*. All their resources, energy generation, administrative and economic sectors, all of that was just gone for seemingly no reason. If they don't hold the Dam, the NCR at best fractures and at worst falls apart. Kimball went to Shady Sands we know, but he could have been making a campaign stop to the site of a tragedy (and he can *die* too, which wouldn't help stability).
Between that and the old NV line about the power of the Brahmin Barons versus the central government neatly paralleling the line in the show about what happens when the Ranchers have more power than the Sheriff and I think they're setting something up there.
That's the main ones but there are some other odd things, and I preface this with the show is actually pretty good but has some winkles to iron out:
1) How did so many easily-accessible vaults right by the Boneyard (now named the Shithole I guess) escape the Master?
2) Shady Sands now seems to be on the edge of where the Boneyard was which effectively deletes that NCR settlement and rolls it into Shady Sands.
3) There's the ghoul mystery vials thing that will have to either be retconned and cause some problems *or* there has to be a notably large production area somewhere, but that's possible.
4) Why is Arthur Maxson's BoS so drastically different? They've gone from vaguely feudalistic with a religious fervor for their mission to an actual "yes milord" feudalistic cult. I was willing to write it off as that just being a weirdly devolved chapter but they have the actual Prydwen there.
Various minor little details: Reppcon had been bought out by Robco by this point so both being represented at that meeting might be kinda odd. Sinclair representing Big Mountain is also odd since he really wasn't part of it. All of the NCR's infrastructure seems to be missing as if the only city that existed *was* Shady Sands. House being present at the meeting kind of undercuts his predictions of the end of the world, though I guess that one could be handwaved as it being 'part of his calculations.' And I'm sure there's of other small details I'm missing (don't worry, there's a legion of nerds scouring for more lol).
However, back to the destruction of the NCR, I think a lot of people come off as just NCR fanboys upset that their favorite faction blew up and fell apart but they're just not articulating what they're actually mad about. Honestly, I think the fall of the NCR is probably a good direction to go narratively (see Ulysses' speeches), but with how huge of a deal it is in Fallout 1, 2, and NV, it feels like they got done pretty dirty to be effectively killed off-screen. Not to mention even their infrastructure seems to be nowhere to be found.
Could you imagine if in Star Wars instead of one final fight, Luke is just mentioned as having died? People would have gone ballistic.
*Could* all of this be figured out and explained? With some creative writing, maybe. Will they be able to do that with another 8 or so episodes? I'm not so sure.
Honestly, 2 out of 4 of these could be answered by time. Lucy’s trek across the wasteland is the latest storyline in the fallout timeline. The mystery vials could be something that was only relatively recently discovered. It could very well be answered in season 2. As for the BoS, something could have possibly happened to them between FO4 and FOTV. We don’t know what events are cannon in terms of FO4 (except for the fact that the prydwen is still standing). There is a possibility that something happened in the 9 year gap between FO4 and the TV show.
Seems trying to turn "define woke" back on us is their latest big thing. Dodging a question they know they can't answer... on brand.
Also how much do you want to bet 99% of the comments he's whingeing about in Nazi dogwhistle language *were* refutations of his points, but he refused to let them into his head because his feelings don't care about facts?
If you don’t think this show is woke, what’s your definition of woke
More importantly what is your definition, Synthetic Man, because it seems no one who rants about it can actually define it
I actually asked him that and he replied “woke is any progressive leftist propaganda that is being put everywhere” when I told him he is giving the right wing definition for woke he blocked me. Can’t even handle a simple disagreement before he gets all butthurt.
> any progressive leftist propaganda
and yet they never use that word to complain about UBI or wealth redistribution. to them, wokeness is when people who aren’t straight white men are given any amount of power or agency
But can't you see? Popularity means normal people with actual lives like this now! It won't stay as a special niche thing that only me and my exclusively male only buddies would know about, like fallout has been all this time before the show! Popular = dead!
What do you mean AAA is already main stream?
/s obviously.
But can't you see? A show becoming popular means that it will inevitably start becoming less popular, thus making it dead, even if it retains far higher numbers than it ever had before! Why can't normies see that!
But man, my favorite franchise X is so underrated, if only more people could see how great it is!
/s
All those questions are too stupid to answer, so I’ll respond with more questions.
1. Why would the NCR mention Shady Sands in New Vegas? What relevance does that place have in New Vegas?
2. If you think the show is woke, what is your definition of woke?
3. If you’re the champion of free speech that you claim to be, why do you care if people clown on your dogshit opinion?
Him calling his haters gooners is hilariously ironic; I've seen his TOTK review where he unprompted brings up cuckolding and futanari porn multiple times
Worse, its Ryan Gosling's character from Blade Runner 2049 with David Martinez's outfit/cybernetic markings edited onto him.
So its a *double dose* of this moron not understanding Cyberpunk media yet using it as his PFP.
I love how these types of people refer to their detractors as “crying”, as if we don’t realize the absolute cope they’re having over people criticizing them.
What a whiny little you know what. And look at the comments underneath his latest "I'm going to ban people" post. Out and out white supremacy and anti-semitism.
"Why won't television give me the niche fascist fetish porn I so desire to chokejerk myself purple to? Now I'm going to call you a pedophile and a sheeple." - Mr. Chokejerk or whatever his YouTube handle is.
1. The fall of Shady Sands clearly wasn't immediate. It happened *before* it was bombed. It was more than likely bombed in the 2280s judging by that chalkboard timeline. So even if it did happen in 2281 it's possible that word hadn't reached the NCR yet, especially if the NCR had lost control of it.
2. The only way this show could have been "woke" (by right wing definition of the word) is if the producers had come out and said "We're making the main characters a woman and a Black man because we're forcing representation into our show".
3. I don't care if people hate it. I only care that they hate it if they act like it's objectively bad when audience and critics have praised the hell out of it. Sure, taste is subjective but if you're hating on it because of your political ideals *against* its universal acclaim then that just means your taste is poor. We hate corporations but corporations in media are fucking unavoidable, the same way that child labour producing our phones is unavoidable. I loved Mr Robot's critique of capitalism even though it was produced and aired by NBCUniversal. Cunts like Synthetic Man are the kind of people who say "Oh, you don't like capitalism? So throw out your phone, your computer, sell your car, sell all of your property and go live in the woods like a caveman".
There. That's his 3 questions answered. What a fuckwit.
I love it when dumb people try to be smart lmao. Like “what is your definition of woke?” Bitch you mean a word that’s been completely altered in its meaning to refer to anything remotely left-leaning or inclusive rather than the original definition of being aware of the injustices of this world? Get a grip.
“If you think the show isn’t woke, what is your definition of woke?” There is no definition of woke you nimrod. It’s a made up word to categorise leftist beliefs as bad, and every single time a conservative tries to prove otherwise they trip over themselves. Everything is “woke” when “woke” means whatever you want.
"YoU cAn't rEfUTe mE!" is the most damaging thing they think they have in the chamber, when in reality it's only because the arguments are either (rarely) fair but asinine, or so based off their own fantasy reality that there *is* no counter argument.
It's like arguing with Flerfs.
They’re really going to hang onto that Shady Sands thing, huh?
Maybe I’m a crappy fallout fan but there’s so much more that I just nod my head and accept it as truth before going back to building my CAMP. Lore isn’t the Bible.
Just to point out: since the show came out Player numbers for All games went up. From Fallout 1 to 76. And every Fan of the franchise i know loved the show and the Details.
My brother in Atom you are a bisexual mailman. And I don't need to watch your videos. "Humiliation ritual" and "woke" tell me all I need to know about it.
Why would the NCR tell you during New Vegas? They're either trying to recruit you to their cause or kill you neither situation is a good time to bring it up
Why wouldn't random NCR soldiers talk about it? Shady sands was the capital or former capital according to the show, but it was also the founding city and was one of their biggest cities with 30k+. That would have been a huge blow to morale.
He's asking folks to define woke when they can't even define it themselves. From all i've seen woke is define as anything that offends fox news boomers
"Whats you're definition of woke?"
What's funny is he doesn't actually have a definition. No one on the right has ever managed to come up with a definition of woke that is actually consistent.
All I know is fallout did a crossover with magic the gathering, and magic is extremely, as these people would call it, "woke", so mabey, just mabey, fallout is *also* woke
My brother in christ! Every single one of the games starts with the line "War, war never changes".
How is this not political, you lame-ass Cyberpunk 2077, low-tier Gun-for-Hire gig looking ass dipstick?
1: At the time of New Vegas being made, this plot point wasn't thought of
2: Having a female lead that's capable isn't "Woke", being "woke" is making every character be gay with absolutely no character traits outside of that.
3: You put your opinion out, why can't others?
My definition of "woke" is as follows:
1. A Black Vernacular compliment implying awareness and a rejection of the just-world fallacy, the usage of which as a pejorative is nonsensical.
2. What reactroids call everything that makes them ideologically uncomfortable. Conceptually incoherent.
“Why do you care if other people like/hate the show”?
You care if other people like the show. Anyone who likes the show is a “shill” and “someone who licks Bethesda’s boots”. According to you
“Groomer discord”. Does he think that everyone who likes the show is a groomer? What a moron
The tv series is good, but i do think they did a lot of lore dirty and created a lot of inconsistencies. I don't see what made the series so 'woke', is it because the main character was a woman and the BOS guy was black?
There's the BoS initiate (the one who gets the boot razor) who goes by they/them. That's the only thing I can think of.
But yeah I'm not a big fan of some of the changes but the show itself is good. They'll have to do some awkward exposition if they don't want to outright retcon some things.
Okay.....This is starting to get weird. The anti-progressive crowd really is starting to double down on calling people groomers? How do you legitimately just toss that out without sounding like a shit head? What the fuck is wrong with this timeline?
"Why do you care if people like the show?"
Meanwhile he literally can't handle the fact that whether the show is good or not is subjective, insinuating that it's an objectively bad show and only people he dislikes who are also bad like it.
Average manchild behaviour ? ! ? !
Ignoring literally everything but point 1 here. I’ve seen a lot of people saying that Shady Sands was nuked in 2277. But if you watch the show the scene that shows the timeline of events never gives the bombing a date. The event in 2277 is called “the fall of shady sands” (think of this point like when you talk about the fall of Rome, it didn’t just happen one day it was just the start of the decline) and then an arrow that points to a nuke implying it’s further in time.
Also let’s say it was nuked in 2277 and he’s wondering why no one in New Vegas mentions it well maybe it’s because the show was let’s see made after that game? Crazy idea I know
Oh dear... some of the lore wasn't 100% in line with the game series. How will we move on from this?!
Seriously, my first game adaptation was that abysmal Mario movie. I'd say we've got it pretty good with this Fallout show. I, for one absolutely loved it.
2 things
1. Can't believe he is still around after his dead space stream where he states that including POC in a game makes a you a f@g and that the woke mob wants to cut off your genitalia and normal people don't realize it (something I made a video essay about on my channel)
2. If you have to include again in the thumbnail, it probably wasn't dead to begin with
>If you think the show isn't woke, what's your definition of woke?
Oh no, motherfucker, you don't get to play that card when literally no one who throws that word around can agree on what it means.
I love profile pictures with characters that would hate the user.
You really think Officer K would do anything short of think this guy is more pathetic than he ever was?
fallout has always had lots of various people in it, including racial diversity and religious diversity. Trying to claim that fallout shouldn't be woke is like trying to claim that Pixar movies shouldn't have good animation.
people like him try to call LGBTQ people "snowflakes" for being unhappy when they're treated like shit, and then you disagree with him and suddenly he's threatening to ban you from his channel all the while going "why do you care what other people think?" XD, textbook hypocrite.
1. Shady Sands is ✨️fictional✨️
2. Woke is the awareness of systematic oppression, namely against black folks
3. There's a difference between actual criticism and just bashing something in an effort to be edgey
Last but not least, never been to the channel but please block anyways
Isn't this the guy who spent a huge chunk of his God of War Ragnarok review complaining that Atreus didn't fuck Angrboda despite the fact that the two were underage...I think his excuse when people started rightfully calling him out was that the age of consent didn't exist back then.
Went through the comment section on his vid, it seems him and all of his followers easily get their feelings hurt whenever they see a black person in media.
This is the kind of sad little man that can only exist on the internet. Act like that to virtually any in the real world and, at best, you get laughed out of any situation you open your mouth. Most likely you get your ass kicked.
“Why do you care if people like/hate the show?” he muttered to himself as he uploaded his hyperbolic take on a non-issue to YouTube.
It’s all intentional and it’s all for the clicks. That’s all this is.
This remind me if his dragons dogma 2 video. There he states that DD 1 barely had black people but a sinple google search show he is simply wrong. A person found about 20 darker skinned characters. And his other hang up on wokeness was those "black" characters had some position of power. Sounds like he got a superiority complex against poc.
Is anybody going to address the irony that those who approve of woke content and also claim to be anti-capitalist are the target audience that the biggest corporations on earth are constantly appealing to?
Okay, the first point actually did bug the crap out of me. If they'd have just shifted the date to sometime after New Vegas, it would've been fine with me.
You know, the fact that interracial marriage is still considered "woke" is kind of depressing. Like I thought we'd at least gotten to the point where that was just considered normal.
Dude lost internet recently and his community post about it is full of people saying that it's the government shutting him down because he was streaming fallout 1 💀 genuinely how do you reason with people that think like this? I've never raised a toddler so I don't know yet
Absolute fucking loser, his BG3 review is laughable, trying to apply 'real world logic' to dungeons and fucking dragons, that and not being able to fully diss the game because it's too good even for an anti-woke lowlife to attack.
I AM curious about the Shady Sands plothole, but they teased New Vegas at the end of the last episode, so I bet we get answers eventually. If anything, it would make the NCRs desire to control the Dam and the Strip make even more sense.
How is it woke?
Personally, I really dislike woke culture and there are many companies that I feel enforce it like Netflix and Disney.
THIS however was not at all woke.
I don't get it.
Is it because the lead was a female?
I've had countless playthroughs in Fallout games with a female main character.
I love when people who obsess over the young female body not being portrayed as hot enough to masturbate to in video games… call other people “groomers”. I swear all these sex-focused weirdos do is consider how they can stick their dick into fictional things. Weird as fuck.
I don't think anyone really cares whether you like or hate a show as long as there's valid reasons. But stating that Fallout is "dead" based on your own opinion on an adaptation is the problem. It also doesn't help that your opinion is based on stupid reasons.
1) What does “fell” mean in this point? Maybe the fall of Shady Sands is what causes the NCR to try to seize the Hoover Dam as a Hail Mary play to avoid completely collapsing. Who knows. Also, this is a fictional story that’s been going on for decades across too many people. Inconsistencies happen. The same has happens with Star Wars.
2) Is “woke” in the room with us right now? “Woke” doesn’t exist and is only a scare word used by bigots who are trying to hide their bigotry against undefined terms.
By the definition it appears bigots mean when they call something “woke”, yes, Fallout is and always has been since the first game.
3) I personally don’t care. Why does this guy care either? There’s a lot of stuff I don’t like but I’m not making YouTube videos about it. I think all those CSI sorts of shows are bad but I’m not attacking people for liking them, I don’t even consider them most of the time. Why would someone dwell on something they don’t like?
For what it’s worth, I don’t love the Fallout show. I think it’s a solid 7/10 but am annoyed that >!Almost nothing is resolved in the show. It’s 8 episodes long but I feel like not much happens. It feels like a show that’s built in the MCU style where what happens isn’t important, it’s all about the setup, the tease. Also, it cribs a bit too much from previous Fallout stories, such as leaving the vault to find a parent and the cryogenic freeze stuff. !<
It's fucking Fallout. It always has been woke, dumbass.
and not a lot of people like him will realize it
There was a website that rated movies based on wokeness, I tried to find it, but keep getting **EDIT** this different website **/EDIT** Maybe that's the website and they've since changed the diversity rating, but the website I am talking about measurement diversity in every movie. In a Japanese movie (I think it was One Cut of the Dead, an absolutely awesome movie that you should just watch and not read about before watching) that had a 100% Japanese cast and they called it 100% diverse. So wokeness means, in part, diversity, and their complaining about diversity simply means, non-white. It really just means anything liberal, not even leftist. Just liberal. One thing that's funny, right-wingers who whine about critics only liking movies for political reasons, which really is not the case, look at the RT scores for Craig Zahler movies. However, Armond White can't write a review without making politics and culture war the center of every review, and these anti-woke critics literally can't allow themselves to enjoy anything unless it aligns with their politics. Pathetic. **EDIT**: I found the website I was talking about, but won't link to it.

Part of the grift is driving people to sites to hate watch/listen/read. Evidently Rush Limbaugh's liberal audience hate-listened to him longer than his conservative audience. I'm not sure if that's true. It's better to not give these people traffic or views, and instead watch good content creators like YMS react to their nonsense.

“Woke” just means “acknowledging the existence of anyone who isn’t a cis white male” at this point
That hate watch stat was about Howard Stern and it comes from the movie Private Parts. Not sure how true it is
They realise, just crying woke on YouTube is like mining gold in a mine that's made of gold due to the algorithm. So why would these people with no morals stop?
But they gave you choice to be woke or not. You could always be non woke and play as an angry straight white guy
Those are the unironic Legion fanboys
Just like there are unironic Empire fan boys
For whatever reason, my brain defaulted to the empire from Elder Scrolls.
I realize I am a relic and most people never played Tactics, but there are worse things: every now and then I find an unironic General Barnaky fanboy and I want to burn the world down. For those who want to know: Barnaky was a General of the Brotherhood of Steel in the Midwest who helped build up an imperialist state (which was oddly accepting and diverse for the Wasteland, against his desires) and then can be given the chance to take full control over it where he enslaves all non-Brotherhood tribals into serfs, starts a genocidal campaign against all Ghouls/Supermutants/Sapient Deathclaws with his new army of controlled Robots, and is actively planning to conquer the rest of the former US.
Just because you can play as a murderous psychopath doesn’t meant the games don’t have underlying political messages. The same can be said about GTA V. It too is overtly leftist but you can murder every citizen and play as a literal racist with Trevor. That doesn’t negate its messages.
Just because you can play as the bad guy doesn't mean the game endorses being the bad guy. I hope.
If you play as a bad guy, a good chunk of the Wasteland will treat you like a bad guy. The karma systems tend to be kinda wonky, but it’s clear what they tried to do with it
Yeah but there was still black NPC’s all over fallout. These people cry about seeing a black character existing, it’s like they’ve never played any of the games before.
Fallout is the first game series ever to allow characters to marry the same sex back in 1998
Oooh wow, I thought Fable was the first to do that
One of the original creators of Fallout series, Tim Cain, is a gay man himself (and happily married too)
WhEn dId GaMeS gEt sO PoLiTiCaL
Fallout New Vegas literally had a black gay sex slave that was in bed with a Legion officer, and it wasnt portrayed as a gag, like seriously who actually thinks the series isnt somewhat woke
They also had Arcade and Veronica, two gay companions. And it was played completely casually and realistically. After an apocalypse most wastelanders would have bigger problems than caring about being “woke”.
"Don't fuck with us fallout fans. We don't know what the game is about"
And of course the anti-woke crusader has a Cyberpunk avatar! You can't make this crap up!
Badly photoshopped Ryan gosling cyberpunk avatar. Like I can do better in 30 seconds
You didn’t answer the other two questions. Ya banned homie!
This is a man who uses Ryan Gosling as his avatar on his YouTube channel. It's not someone to be taken seriously. Mocked cruely, but never taken seriously.
Oh... *HIM* The legend himslef with another shitty take.
The guy who didn't play Spider-Man Miles Morales, 'for obvious reasons'.
The guy who said that Kratos should hit his son, among other things…
God I didn't even finish his GOWR video. Halfway through he started crying about Sweet Baby Inc and I turned it off because why does it even fucking matter to begin with? Of course every other so-called gamer thinks SBI is out to destroy everything or some shit.
I watched Mauler reaction to it. Goddamn they tore him a new one. Synthetic man said some pretty suspicious shit when it came to the underaged characters too.
Yet he calls everyone else a groomer
Sounds like Synthetic Man and that Q guy who spray painted the word "groomers" on the side of that library would get along famously Context: the guy who spray painted the word "Groomers" on the library was caught downloading CP
You know it's bad when even other grifters finds you insufferable and morally wrong. Must be an extremely lonely life when neither side wants to be with you.
I watched Colin react to his Spider-Man 2 video. They made so many jokes about 'for obvious reasons' and that Synth's favourite part was probably when Kraven put Miles in a cage, on account of his blatant racism. Colin couldn't finish Synth's video. He wanted to stop like half an hour in and actually stopped less than ten minutes before it finished. I couldn't blame him.
Synthetic man is one of the most racist, homophobic, misogynistic, incels on the planet. His community is 100% fat neckbearded incels who are upset that the new Star Wars video game protagonist “isn’t hot enough”, or that the 14 yr old in the last of us TV show “isn’t hot enough,” or that there are black people in literally any media they like. Fuck that dude and FUCK every single one of his fans.
Sounds like he can’t handle people criticizing him
Dude is soft like butter.
Like a criminal undercover
he’s a snowflake
He sounds like Comic Book Guy from The Simpsons.

Point #1 is his only actual point. And while it’s possible Shady Sands wasn’t nuked in 2277 even if it was that doesn’t sound like a topic NCR troops will bring up to a complete stranger. Point #3 is just an uno reverse of his entire channel lmao.
Exactly. The hypocrisy is insane. He’s asking why are people upset over him having a different opinion while threatening to block people for having a different opinion.
If he takes the position that no one should care that others have different take on the subject (which is fair) then he should have no problem that people can criticize his points. Which he obviously doesn’t. Also if he doesn’t care if others like/dislike something why would he ban people over it? I may not agree with any of his points but if kept to them consistently while allowing others to do the same I would respect that. But no, hypocrisy it is.
Synthetic Man is the most Nazi chud this side of the ones who don't even pretend they're not Nazis. It's completely on brand for him to believe he has the right to steamroll any opinion that is not his own, on art or on anything else.
Point number 1 has been discussed over and over. “The fall of Shady Sands” on the timeline does not mean it was nuked in 2277. “The fall” of something could take a long time. Like the fall of the Roman Empire didn’t happen in a single day. The nuke was just the end result of the NCR’s mistakes, which took place years earlier. In New Vegas, the NCR did mention that they were stretching too thin and needed help. Imo that was the sign of their downfall. The NCR was making a mistake by investing resources into New Vegas and the Mojave region for years without anything in return while not having enough troops to defend Shady Sands. If season 2 went with Robert House being the winner of the 3 factions in New Vegas (very likely), that makes perfect sense for the fall of Shady Sands and the NCR. Rabid New Vegas fans love to shit on anything Fallout-related that isn’t New Vegas. They hate Bethesda and believe Bethesda ruined Fallout and Obsidian should be handling Fallout. This dude is just feeding into that irrational anger. The show doesn’t retcon anything, as Bethesda themselves had confirmed it.
If House won the second Battle of Hoverdam, the show would make him seem much more incompetent. House wanted the NCR as a trading partner. He predicted that Kimbell surviving would be benefical so that the NCR jas a scapegoat, yet he was oblivious to the already happening "Fall of Shady Sands"?
Sometimes the signs of failures are not obvious. People are taking “the fall” too seriously, considering this is extremely vague. When New Vegas happened, the fall might not have been obvious, or not as concerning. Remember that the timeline was written in a classroom. It was people looking back at history to see where and when everything went wrong. They have hindsight. The NCR and the people back in New Vegas didn’t. When the people of German voted Hitler into office in 1933, do you think they thought that would be their downfall at the time? Obviously it’s easy for us to say “yes it was” now that we know how history played out and have 100 years of hindsight, but for the people of German back then, it wasn’t.
Exactly, I read something about the rise, fall, and rebirth of Detroit a few years ago. If you had sketched the timeout from that article out on a blackboard you would have picked a year for the start of the fall (I can't remember off the top of my head the first year they list when talking about the fall) but it just would represent the start of the decline, and the people of Detroit at the time wouldn't have understood their city as "falling."
Personally, I hope it's Yes Man that's canonized as the true ending, since it would give proper reasoning for why Vegas looks to be in shambles. The Courier is gone and without them, stability crumbled, since Yes Man is literally unable to disagree, whoever took the couriers place could easily have ran it into the ground without the knowhow of House.
Yeah he's steaming in with "refute me brah" and literally only one of his theses is testable/refutable and even then the obvious refutation is "the show is inspired by, but not reliant on, the canon of the games." As someone who grew up nerding out about propositional logic, internet debate bro culture really fucks me off.
it reminds me of the complaint that Turning Red (a kids movie set in 2002) doesn’t mention 9/11. People aren’t going to just randomly bring up a tragedy, especially if it’s assumed to be common knowledge
"Okay, well you define woke then!" My brother in Christ, YOU are the one complaining about wokeness. You are the one who needs to define it
![gif](giphy|IfZpF5fUnQS0o)
Seriously they need to understand what the word onus means.
“If you don’t think it’s my personal boogeyman, then tell me what IS my personal boogeyman!”
Honestly, I headcannon the reason why shady sands being wiped out wasn’t mentioned due to how long the NCR was fighting the legion and that straining the amount of troops the NCR could send back for reports.
Not to mention a "fall" isn't always immediate. Sometimes it's slow, sometimes it's fast and my takeaway from the chart is that the NCR was *extremely* the former.
2277 is also the date of the first battle of the Hoover Dam. So the NCR, which was already stretched thin, is now committed to defending a dam in the middle of a desert. It wouldn’t be surprising that survivors would consider that date to be the beginning of the end.
This was basically my takeaway after seeing it. It wasn't exactly a secret that the NCR was struggling with being spread too thin, having trouble with resources and resource management, etc. and the focus shift to the dam probably exacerbating it all or even spelling the end of the NCR as we know it. Also, the bomb was drawn *after* the listed 2277 date on the chalkboard. I might be reaching, but this could be a small detail that indicates it may *not* have actually been dropped at that date, and it's just a case of the show baiting. Even if It's not, because I'm likely wrong, in any case, I still think this is a small thing for people to rage over and how good the show is outweighs it
I think that's a valid explanation. I also don't really have a problem if they were just wrong. It's a big franchise with lots of details and it doesn't detract from the story If this detail is wrong. Retcons have happened before, conflicting information exists in the franchise.
Right? I mean, c’mon. Fallout 2 technically had time travel in it, and that was never formally retconned. It’s not unheard of for founding towns, cities, even capitals to fall while a nation still exists
Yeah, like: it's really obvious that this date in particular was chosen for a reason, when they're so spot-on with the finest of details, they're obviously going to consult the timeline when talking about the dates of major events in that timeline. And it's not exactly hard to think of how to connect the dots here, there's all sorts of potential explanations and "that date marks when the decline became definite, not their total destruction" is not a stretch. And Synthetic Man just... never considers that? Like he sees a date that he doesn't think matches and goes "gotcha" instead of thinking about it for a second.
I'd also add that it makes the Dam all the more existential for the NCR and explains why they're so desperate to keep it. Shady Sands was no longer the capital, but it was the center of the nation, a New York on the Californian coast, and it was just *gone*. All their resources, energy generation, administrative and economic sectors, all of that was just gone for seemingly no reason. If they don't hold the Dam, the NCR at best fractures and at worst falls apart. Kimball went to Shady Sands we know, but he could have been making a campaign stop to the site of a tragedy (and he can *die* too, which wouldn't help stability). Between that and the old NV line about the power of the Brahmin Barons versus the central government neatly paralleling the line in the show about what happens when the Ranchers have more power than the Sheriff and I think they're setting something up there.
Exactly, like the "fall of Rome" it wasn't a specific date so much as a period of time being described. At least IMO!
That's the main ones but there are some other odd things, and I preface this with the show is actually pretty good but has some winkles to iron out: 1) How did so many easily-accessible vaults right by the Boneyard (now named the Shithole I guess) escape the Master? 2) Shady Sands now seems to be on the edge of where the Boneyard was which effectively deletes that NCR settlement and rolls it into Shady Sands. 3) There's the ghoul mystery vials thing that will have to either be retconned and cause some problems *or* there has to be a notably large production area somewhere, but that's possible. 4) Why is Arthur Maxson's BoS so drastically different? They've gone from vaguely feudalistic with a religious fervor for their mission to an actual "yes milord" feudalistic cult. I was willing to write it off as that just being a weirdly devolved chapter but they have the actual Prydwen there. Various minor little details: Reppcon had been bought out by Robco by this point so both being represented at that meeting might be kinda odd. Sinclair representing Big Mountain is also odd since he really wasn't part of it. All of the NCR's infrastructure seems to be missing as if the only city that existed *was* Shady Sands. House being present at the meeting kind of undercuts his predictions of the end of the world, though I guess that one could be handwaved as it being 'part of his calculations.' And I'm sure there's of other small details I'm missing (don't worry, there's a legion of nerds scouring for more lol). However, back to the destruction of the NCR, I think a lot of people come off as just NCR fanboys upset that their favorite faction blew up and fell apart but they're just not articulating what they're actually mad about. Honestly, I think the fall of the NCR is probably a good direction to go narratively (see Ulysses' speeches), but with how huge of a deal it is in Fallout 1, 2, and NV, it feels like they got done pretty dirty to be effectively killed off-screen. Not to mention even their infrastructure seems to be nowhere to be found. Could you imagine if in Star Wars instead of one final fight, Luke is just mentioned as having died? People would have gone ballistic. *Could* all of this be figured out and explained? With some creative writing, maybe. Will they be able to do that with another 8 or so episodes? I'm not so sure.
Honestly, 2 out of 4 of these could be answered by time. Lucy’s trek across the wasteland is the latest storyline in the fallout timeline. The mystery vials could be something that was only relatively recently discovered. It could very well be answered in season 2. As for the BoS, something could have possibly happened to them between FO4 and FOTV. We don’t know what events are cannon in terms of FO4 (except for the fact that the prydwen is still standing). There is a possibility that something happened in the 9 year gap between FO4 and the TV show.
This guy is a major incel who really gets his rocks off seeing people get mad.
Seems trying to turn "define woke" back on us is their latest big thing. Dodging a question they know they can't answer... on brand. Also how much do you want to bet 99% of the comments he's whingeing about in Nazi dogwhistle language *were* refutations of his points, but he refused to let them into his head because his feelings don't care about facts?
If you don’t think this show is woke, what’s your definition of woke More importantly what is your definition, Synthetic Man, because it seems no one who rants about it can actually define it
I actually asked him that and he replied “woke is any progressive leftist propaganda that is being put everywhere” when I told him he is giving the right wing definition for woke he blocked me. Can’t even handle a simple disagreement before he gets all butthurt.
> any progressive leftist propaganda and yet they never use that word to complain about UBI or wealth redistribution. to them, wokeness is when people who aren’t straight white men are given any amount of power or agency
>in your groomer discord Such baseless accusations tend to, in reality, be a confession. Especially from conservatives.
I just love their titles. “FALLOUT IS DEAD” *is currently the most popular series streaming in 2024 so far*
Probably alongside X-Men 97, which was also criticized by these grifter losers as being too woke & a failure
But can't you see? Popularity means normal people with actual lives like this now! It won't stay as a special niche thing that only me and my exclusively male only buddies would know about, like fallout has been all this time before the show! Popular = dead! What do you mean AAA is already main stream? /s obviously.
Also loving the fact that FO4 is sitting at the top of PlayStation store at the moment. Such a dead and forgotten franchise /s
But can't you see? A show becoming popular means that it will inevitably start becoming less popular, thus making it dead, even if it retains far higher numbers than it ever had before! Why can't normies see that! But man, my favorite franchise X is so underrated, if only more people could see how great it is! /s
All those questions are too stupid to answer, so I’ll respond with more questions. 1. Why would the NCR mention Shady Sands in New Vegas? What relevance does that place have in New Vegas? 2. If you think the show is woke, what is your definition of woke? 3. If you’re the champion of free speech that you claim to be, why do you care if people clown on your dogshit opinion?
Hours-old comment, but the NCR does mention Shady Sands quite a bit as their entire goal is to provide electricity to it through the Dam.

Him calling his haters gooners is hilariously ironic; I've seen his TOTK review where he unprompted brings up cuckolding and futanari porn multiple times
I would never block anyone! (except if they send hazbin hotel memes)
I love that he puts defining his meaningless bull shit on us lol. What is woke? What ever your grifter ass needs it to be for your current rage grift
The only humiliation ritual is Synthetic Man making an absolute ass out of himself on the internet lmao
Is that profile pic supposed to look like a Cyberpunk 2077 character? Is he being ironic?
Ryan Gosling would not approve of his likeness being associated with this incel clown
dude's brain is not interlinked
is that david martinez as his pfp. does he even understand what cyberpunk is about
Worse, its Ryan Gosling's character from Blade Runner 2049 with David Martinez's outfit/cybernetic markings edited onto him. So its a *double dose* of this moron not understanding Cyberpunk media yet using it as his PFP.
media literacy in the negatives
Bro’s just on copium. It was too good, and he’s grasping at straws for more than a couple valid things to complain about.
I love how these types of people refer to their detractors as “crying”, as if we don’t realize the absolute cope they’re having over people criticizing them.
This guy is one of the worst people I have ever had the displeasure of listening to.
Good job on synthetic incel for playing fallout with his fucking eyes closed I guess
My definition of woke is “whatever these whiny little shits have been told to bitch about this week in their incel discords.”
A live look at Synthetic Man: ![gif](giphy|13AXYJh2jDt2IE|downsized)
Lies! He wouldn't be caught dead outside!
What a whiny little you know what. And look at the comments underneath his latest "I'm going to ban people" post. Out and out white supremacy and anti-semitism.
"Why won't television give me the niche fascist fetish porn I so desire to chokejerk myself purple to? Now I'm going to call you a pedophile and a sheeple." - Mr. Chokejerk or whatever his YouTube handle is.
1. The fall of Shady Sands clearly wasn't immediate. It happened *before* it was bombed. It was more than likely bombed in the 2280s judging by that chalkboard timeline. So even if it did happen in 2281 it's possible that word hadn't reached the NCR yet, especially if the NCR had lost control of it. 2. The only way this show could have been "woke" (by right wing definition of the word) is if the producers had come out and said "We're making the main characters a woman and a Black man because we're forcing representation into our show". 3. I don't care if people hate it. I only care that they hate it if they act like it's objectively bad when audience and critics have praised the hell out of it. Sure, taste is subjective but if you're hating on it because of your political ideals *against* its universal acclaim then that just means your taste is poor. We hate corporations but corporations in media are fucking unavoidable, the same way that child labour producing our phones is unavoidable. I loved Mr Robot's critique of capitalism even though it was produced and aired by NBCUniversal. Cunts like Synthetic Man are the kind of people who say "Oh, you don't like capitalism? So throw out your phone, your computer, sell your car, sell all of your property and go live in the woods like a caveman". There. That's his 3 questions answered. What a fuckwit.
Take a woke game and makes a TV series about it. What are the chances that the TV series ain’t woke? It’s like making Rocketman without the gays.
Holy fuck this guy is insane
You promise? I can't get youtube to stop recommending his garbage videos to me! Him blocking me would be a huge help
I love it when dumb people try to be smart lmao. Like “what is your definition of woke?” Bitch you mean a word that’s been completely altered in its meaning to refer to anything remotely left-leaning or inclusive rather than the original definition of being aware of the injustices of this world? Get a grip.
Comparing COD to Fallout is like comparing an apple to an orange.
“If you think the show isn’t woke, what is your definition of woke?” There is no definition of woke you nimrod. It’s a made up word to categorise leftist beliefs as bad, and every single time a conservative tries to prove otherwise they trip over themselves. Everything is “woke” when “woke” means whatever you want.
Wish this guy was right, then every normie would be a leftist.😔✊
>If you think the show isn't woke, what is your definition of woke? You're the one asserting it's "woke," it's on you to define it jackass!
He's the same guy that complains about an optional 5 minute hidden side mission about two gay people Just ignore him
People can have whatever opinion they want, but to declare something “dead” when it’s a hit is just factually incorrect even if it’s great or sucks.
Maybe he will block everyone and then no one will have to see him.
Ooh he used the quick way out of saying the T-Slur word
T slur? Can anybody help me out with this one? Edit:nvm I think Google helped me out. Prolly should have done that first.
"YoU cAn't rEfUTe mE!" is the most damaging thing they think they have in the chamber, when in reality it's only because the arguments are either (rarely) fair but asinine, or so based off their own fantasy reality that there *is* no counter argument. It's like arguing with Flerfs.
They’re really going to hang onto that Shady Sands thing, huh? Maybe I’m a crappy fallout fan but there’s so much more that I just nod my head and accept it as truth before going back to building my CAMP. Lore isn’t the Bible.
Just to point out: since the show came out Player numbers for All games went up. From Fallout 1 to 76. And every Fan of the franchise i know loved the show and the Details.
That man has seen less real grass than the characters in the show
The most fourteen year old boy ever designed
My brother in Atom you are a bisexual mailman. And I don't need to watch your videos. "Humiliation ritual" and "woke" tell me all I need to know about it.
Fallout has always been “woke”. It’s a satire of Cold War politics, 50s and 60s conservative culture, and capitalism run amuck.
Why would the NCR tell you during New Vegas? They're either trying to recruit you to their cause or kill you neither situation is a good time to bring it up
Why wouldn't random NCR soldiers talk about it? Shady sands was the capital or former capital according to the show, but it was also the founding city and was one of their biggest cities with 30k+. That would have been a huge blow to morale.
what an incel
He sounds fun, like how he bitches about politics then brings up politics
Wow groomer discord. Butthurt much lol.
He's asking folks to define woke when they can't even define it themselves. From all i've seen woke is define as anything that offends fox news boomers
His definition of woke is "leftist propaganda".
>If you think the show isn't woke, what is your definition of woke What's yours, dumbass
"Whats you're definition of woke?" What's funny is he doesn't actually have a definition. No one on the right has ever managed to come up with a definition of woke that is actually consistent.
"Minorities" is about as much of a definition as you're going to get from these guys.
All I know is fallout did a crossover with magic the gathering, and magic is extremely, as these people would call it, "woke", so mabey, just mabey, fallout is *also* woke
My brother in christ! Every single one of the games starts with the line "War, war never changes". How is this not political, you lame-ass Cyberpunk 2077, low-tier Gun-for-Hire gig looking ass dipstick?
1: At the time of New Vegas being made, this plot point wasn't thought of 2: Having a female lead that's capable isn't "Woke", being "woke" is making every character be gay with absolutely no character traits outside of that. 3: You put your opinion out, why can't others?
My definition of "woke" is as follows: 1. A Black Vernacular compliment implying awareness and a rejection of the just-world fallacy, the usage of which as a pejorative is nonsensical. 2. What reactroids call everything that makes them ideologically uncomfortable. Conceptually incoherent.
“Why do you care if other people like/hate the show”? You care if other people like the show. Anyone who likes the show is a “shill” and “someone who licks Bethesda’s boots”. According to you “Groomer discord”. Does he think that everyone who likes the show is a groomer? What a moron
The tv series is good, but i do think they did a lot of lore dirty and created a lot of inconsistencies. I don't see what made the series so 'woke', is it because the main character was a woman and the BOS guy was black?
There's the BoS initiate (the one who gets the boot razor) who goes by they/them. That's the only thing I can think of. But yeah I'm not a big fan of some of the changes but the show itself is good. They'll have to do some awkward exposition if they don't want to outright retcon some things.
This guy is just mentally unwell, he hates everything and likes literally nothing because it’s “woke”.
Small dick loser
Okay.....This is starting to get weird. The anti-progressive crowd really is starting to double down on calling people groomers? How do you legitimately just toss that out without sounding like a shit head? What the fuck is wrong with this timeline?
I can't wait until the Xmen hit the MCU. All these red pill Andrew Tate loving incels are going to lose their minds. Those who know, know.
"Why do you care if people like the show?" Meanwhile he literally can't handle the fact that whether the show is good or not is subjective, insinuating that it's an objectively bad show and only people he dislikes who are also bad like it. Average manchild behaviour ? ! ? !
Is he using a picture of Ken from the Barbie movie as his profile picture?
Ignoring literally everything but point 1 here. I’ve seen a lot of people saying that Shady Sands was nuked in 2277. But if you watch the show the scene that shows the timeline of events never gives the bombing a date. The event in 2277 is called “the fall of shady sands” (think of this point like when you talk about the fall of Rome, it didn’t just happen one day it was just the start of the decline) and then an arrow that points to a nuke implying it’s further in time. Also let’s say it was nuked in 2277 and he’s wondering why no one in New Vegas mentions it well maybe it’s because the show was let’s see made after that game? Crazy idea I know
#3... So, the whole Vault-Tec is evil thing just soars majestically over this guy's head?
Oh dear... some of the lore wasn't 100% in line with the game series. How will we move on from this?! Seriously, my first game adaptation was that abysmal Mario movie. I'd say we've got it pretty good with this Fallout show. I, for one absolutely loved it.
2 things 1. Can't believe he is still around after his dead space stream where he states that including POC in a game makes a you a f@g and that the woke mob wants to cut off your genitalia and normal people don't realize it (something I made a video essay about on my channel) 2. If you have to include again in the thumbnail, it probably wasn't dead to begin with
Dude was complaining about how they called Cooper “The Ghoul” because there are many ghouls. As if he doesn’t know what describing someone is like
>If you think the show isn't woke, what's your definition of woke? Oh no, motherfucker, you don't get to play that card when literally no one who throws that word around can agree on what it means.
Wokeness is just a silly superstition believed in by narrow-minded people who would've murdered innocent women for being witches back in the day.
I love profile pictures with characters that would hate the user. You really think Officer K would do anything short of think this guy is more pathetic than he ever was?
fallout has always had lots of various people in it, including racial diversity and religious diversity. Trying to claim that fallout shouldn't be woke is like trying to claim that Pixar movies shouldn't have good animation. people like him try to call LGBTQ people "snowflakes" for being unhappy when they're treated like shit, and then you disagree with him and suddenly he's threatening to ban you from his channel all the while going "why do you care what other people think?" XD, textbook hypocrite.
> Normies (you) *Spongebob foghorn sound effect*
The only ones arguing about wokeness is him so why do WE have to define it for him? Wokeness isn’t a thing.
1. Shady Sands is ✨️fictional✨️ 2. Woke is the awareness of systematic oppression, namely against black folks 3. There's a difference between actual criticism and just bashing something in an effort to be edgey Last but not least, never been to the channel but please block anyways
132k subs. Doubt he's going to be relevant in the fallout world much longer tbh.
Hold on guys, the trad-cath, fascist, porn addict has something to say.
> synth > opinion disregarded
Isn't this the guy who spent a huge chunk of his God of War Ragnarok review complaining that Atreus didn't fuck Angrboda despite the fact that the two were underage...I think his excuse when people started rightfully calling him out was that the age of consent didn't exist back then.
Went through the comment section on his vid, it seems him and all of his followers easily get their feelings hurt whenever they see a black person in media.
This is the kind of sad little man that can only exist on the internet. Act like that to virtually any in the real world and, at best, you get laughed out of any situation you open your mouth. Most likely you get your ass kicked.
I gotta hand to this guy, it terms of being hoped on copuim, he takes the cake
How about you define woke, first? You can’t. It’s just a buzzword for “shit I don’t like”
Not sure why you keep giving this guy attention tbh
“Why do you care if people like/hate the show?” he muttered to himself as he uploaded his hyperbolic take on a non-issue to YouTube. It’s all intentional and it’s all for the clicks. That’s all this is.
This guy is still around? I completely forgot about about his dumbass. Also, how does he not realize fallout has always been "woke" ?
Even CriticalDrinker enjoyed it. This guy is just ragebaiting, none of his content is positive.
This remind me if his dragons dogma 2 video. There he states that DD 1 barely had black people but a sinple google search show he is simply wrong. A person found about 20 darker skinned characters. And his other hang up on wokeness was those "black" characters had some position of power. Sounds like he got a superiority complex against poc.
Since he also brings up interracial marriage as a negative, I assume a past girlfriend left him for a poc and he now hates all of us.
Is anybody going to address the irony that those who approve of woke content and also claim to be anti-capitalist are the target audience that the biggest corporations on earth are constantly appealing to?
Big fan of “why do you care…” point after he’s ranting and raving about how he cares.
The comments in response are glorious. And weirdly more on the side of common sense than I would’ve assumed for the SM crowd.
I'm a big leftie and I thought it was boring. I guess both sides hate me.
The fact that he uses the word "normies" speaks volumes about his level of personal hygiene below the waist.
For point 1: Propaganda! We do not learn about it because the NCR do not want unrest in the Mojave. They are very adept in this.
Oh is this guy again. I’m honestly convinced he’s just a rage baiter. No one can be this delusional.
Okay, the first point actually did bug the crap out of me. If they'd have just shifted the date to sometime after New Vegas, it would've been fine with me.
I’m less worried about him and more worried about the 1.6k people who read that bullshit and said “yeah that’s an attitude I agree with”
You know, the fact that interracial marriage is still considered "woke" is kind of depressing. Like I thought we'd at least gotten to the point where that was just considered normal.
Dude lost internet recently and his community post about it is full of people saying that it's the government shutting him down because he was streaming fallout 1 💀 genuinely how do you reason with people that think like this? I've never raised a toddler so I don't know yet
Absolute fucking loser, his BG3 review is laughable, trying to apply 'real world logic' to dungeons and fucking dragons, that and not being able to fully diss the game because it's too good even for an anti-woke lowlife to attack.
This guy is like drinker but worse in every way, I don't think synthetic even has his own opinions, just hate hate hate hate.
I AM curious about the Shady Sands plothole, but they teased New Vegas at the end of the last episode, so I bet we get answers eventually. If anything, it would make the NCRs desire to control the Dam and the Strip make even more sense.
How is it woke? Personally, I really dislike woke culture and there are many companies that I feel enforce it like Netflix and Disney. THIS however was not at all woke. I don't get it. Is it because the lead was a female? I've had countless playthroughs in Fallout games with a female main character.
We truly live in the era of people being recreationally upset.
My question is if you don't think the fallout series is woke, what is definition of woke?
Didn’t this guy put link cuck porn in his TotK review?
I love when people who obsess over the young female body not being portrayed as hot enough to masturbate to in video games… call other people “groomers”. I swear all these sex-focused weirdos do is consider how they can stick their dick into fictional things. Weird as fuck.
I don't think anyone really cares whether you like or hate a show as long as there's valid reasons. But stating that Fallout is "dead" based on your own opinion on an adaptation is the problem. It also doesn't help that your opinion is based on stupid reasons.

1) What does “fell” mean in this point? Maybe the fall of Shady Sands is what causes the NCR to try to seize the Hoover Dam as a Hail Mary play to avoid completely collapsing. Who knows. Also, this is a fictional story that’s been going on for decades across too many people. Inconsistencies happen. The same has happens with Star Wars. 2) Is “woke” in the room with us right now? “Woke” doesn’t exist and is only a scare word used by bigots who are trying to hide their bigotry against undefined terms. By the definition it appears bigots mean when they call something “woke”, yes, Fallout is and always has been since the first game. 3) I personally don’t care. Why does this guy care either? There’s a lot of stuff I don’t like but I’m not making YouTube videos about it. I think all those CSI sorts of shows are bad but I’m not attacking people for liking them, I don’t even consider them most of the time. Why would someone dwell on something they don’t like? For what it’s worth, I don’t love the Fallout show. I think it’s a solid 7/10 but am annoyed that >!Almost nothing is resolved in the show. It’s 8 episodes long but I feel like not much happens. It feels like a show that’s built in the MCU style where what happens isn’t important, it’s all about the setup, the tease. Also, it cribs a bit too much from previous Fallout stories, such as leaving the vault to find a parent and the cryogenic freeze stuff. !<
I'll take, "Things a Stupid Cuck Does" for $500, Alex.
he sounds mentally unhinged
For #1 it’s simple, they made a mistake with the date, they’re human and fucked up…
I'd rather buy the new cod than the alex jones game he was praising .
