When will the racism end.

All this "white people problems" and showing an activity like rock climbing or dancing or something and memeing "fucking white people" etc. I'm sick of this socially acceptable racism only when that's only acceptable when referring to "whites" it makes me barf.
Imo it wont end until this double standard ends.
I still stand by my point that rich people want to distract us with everything they can including "race" and the real issue is rich vs poor
-------------------- Only hope can give rise to the emotion we call despair. But it is nearly impossible for a man to try to live without hope, so I guess that leaves Man no choice but to walk around with despair as his companion.

when will the classism end?
people think classism is OK against rich people because they are well off.
you accuse Jews of controlling society everyone agrees that's horrible but its OK to broadly accuse people who do well financially of conspiracies. why can you say it about some groups but not others?
imo it won't end until evny ends.
I just found it kind of funny that you're so against the "fuck white people as a group" but not the "rich people as a group are the enemy" prejudice is prejudice. just food for thought

lol someone being successful doesn't automatically doom others to being unsuccessful.
most rich people have most of their money wrapped up in business that gives us jobs, goods and services that improve quality of life. they don't just have swimming pools full of liquid cash that they horde. thats not how people get rich.
so its starving vs not starting? wouldn't that make all of us on the bas side?
according to the Brookings Institute (left winged source) 98% of people in the United States who do 3 basic things (finish high-school, have a full time job and wait until they are at least 20 and married to have children) will not end up permanently poor. and that's just basic stuff. the fact is that in a free country, personal choice plays a large role in where people end up financially.

Racism will end when we have some real leaders who can rally people together for issues small and large
there are people saying "I want to help with the big issue, but these smaller issues are inhibiting my ability to fight" and we need to be willing to help rectify those issues and pick our fellow soldiers back up
yes, systemic racial discrimination is a tool used to divide but when people are being hurt by that tool on top of the other things, we need to help get it out of the way not tell them to stop being distracted by the obstacle holding them back from helping us
we're being asked to assist with an enemy tank, and responding with "you got this" while we run ahead, then looking back and wondering why our backup is not in sight

Roll a healer; you only "get" to heal for one team during combat, but you can maintain your personal commitment to love
and when you express your personality in stuff like Overwatch it is way fun as a way to play

I wish I could be more optimistic, but...I think as long as there are human beings, there will be racism.
I'm guessing racism has existed since the very beginning of man and it will probably, unfortunately, be here until the end of man.

Yes, racial issues are always pushed by The Elite to distract the masses from the wealth inequality. It's the oldest trick in the book, yet people fall for it all the time.

Do you really think there's much economic distinction in the bottom 80% when it comes to race? It's splitting hairs, the goal is to create divide on the social level to distract from the real discrepancy, rich vs poor.

Thats us. We dont account for shit of the total population. Everyone or most would have to take them and have that same experience. Mushrooms have been around forever and racism is still here.
People are selfish and always want to be better and greater and I feel that is a primitive instinct which will drive most to something like neuralink. At that point, were all fucked.

part of the reason it works is because the distinction in lived experience is real, yet people claim it should be ignored that is the first level of division taking place -- convince some people that they are better at forming perceptions of what is going on than others are while the reality on the ground is still sufficient that it makes those talking about "splitting hairs" or who otherwise minimizing the struggles seem as tho they are as being in league with the higher ups trying to keep people from working to solve things because they do not seek to help the fellow soldiers being hit by it

Indeed but with the recognition that a healer is not just someone trained in medical practice you can become a spiritual healer who helps others cope with their struggles and keeps them in the fight through psychological "buffs" to their mind state

One amazing thing about the video game Overwatch is that it teaches you to accept a wide range of people/characters of all colors, shapes and sizes. Its a game that teaches tolerance and acceptance, and thats important in society with so much subtle and blatant racism going on that perpetuates thru the generations.
The only way to move forward as a species is to be tolerant and accepting of all walks of Human (and animal) life.

It's a team vs team competitive shooter with characters but it also is built around the RPG trinity of Damage/Healer/Tank
my perferred characters are the support/healers Mercy flies around at high speed healing and buffing teammates, and bringing them back to life if they fall in battle but Symmetra can set up defensive turrets to protect an area, and shoot forward a travelling shield to help protect allies

That's an old patch, they took that out and put in the teleporter. Also they, much to my dislike, heavily nerfed Mercy's rez.

Not exactly as the game doesn't really touch much on that aspect of it. Most of the shorts are just origin stories of the characters that don't really matter that much to the game. Sure they made 76 gay in a story but my guess is that it was more for sales just like with Tracer.
Technically racism is still in the game with the Omnic Crisis and lingering resentment towards them. Also the characters tend to be pretty racist portrayals of various nationalities.
Then again it's Blizzard so it is what it is.

thought the teleporter was one of two options for the ultimate which one did they take out tho? have not played since before Moira was introduced, so definitely out of the loop on the specificity

He new changes are that she gets six turrets,with slightly more health. Instead of portable barrier she has the teleporter with limited range. Her gun no longer homes in but is slightly better in power.
As for her new ult, I love it in more ways than one:

I just flat out gave up. QP has too many leavers and the toxicity and mismatch of game quality gets to me.
I stick with League of Legends, I like their supports better.
