• Complete with globohomo art style, nice!

    That art style needs to die a horrible, painful death.

  • “A state-funded computer game is warning teenagers that they risk being referred to a counter-terrorism programme if they question mass migration “

    Which dystopian state ?

    Well, we know it's not China, because you're allowed to criticize migration there. And we know it's not Iran because they actively deport tens of thousands of migrants a year.

    I wonder if I'd have been arrested in the UK around 2015, for saying that they had too many immigrants who didn't want to integrate with British values. And I was an immigrant (student) who didn't want to integrate with British values.

    I was telling my white British friends this: I oppose liberalism and Western values, but I know my place as a guest, so I'll not interfere, and go home quietly once I finish my studies. Meanwhile, your government is taking in large numbers of "refugees" who also oppose Western values, but they intend to settle down permanently and have no qualms about influencing local politics. Take in too many and you're screwed in a decade or two.

    Depending on your race, you'd either just have been deported or faced no consequence at all; there's a reason so many public right wingers in Yookay are nonwhite.

    Pretty brown, guess I win the Family Guy skin colour test and get a free pass!

    I wonder if I'd have been arrested in the UK around 2015, for saying that they had too many immigrants who didn't want to integrate with British values.

    A guy I met at a college program back in '08, his family left the UK in 2007 for Canada because his dad was threatened with arrest for complaining about immigrants not integrating. Chances are yes. With the magic hate ball saying "maybe."

  • Charlie can scroll past it or “engage directly with the post”. Choosing to engage leads to the message: “Unfortunately, Charlie didn’t realise that some of the groups they were engaging in were actually illegal.”

    Jesus Christ, this is pure dystopian nightmare fuel.

    This is the reality of UK. People get arrested for tweets there. What's frightening is how fast it all went.

    Thousands receive fines, jail, and warnings every year for social media posts. More than any other country, except maybe North Korea.

  • And why would anyone choose to play this?

    It'll be a classroom activity, I'd guess. Everyone gets to spend a period playing computer games ("yayy!") but this is the only one allowed ("aww") and after that everyone gets to write a report on what they've learned.

    Blatant bloody indoctrination is what it is.

    How do they keep doing shit like this and everyone just watches and complains? first with the adolescence shit, then digital ID like.... huh?

    No one stops it, so it happens. There's a reason the national founding myth of that country is a guy who literally proves his worth without realizing it and then has a sword PUSHED into his hand by a woman coming out of a lake. That's just how the British have always been; if they're allowed to do it they do it to the utmost and if it's not allowed, they just don't.

    Seriously, their national literature is FILLED with this stuff:

    This petty call and noise demeans you all!
    Is this the space where public will is spoke?
    Or just a stand for juvenile squall?
    Through petty selfish theft, and fighting here,
    Amongst yourselves, you lost this country's trust.
    And though I am not prone to certainty,
    You all have drawn that measure in my heart.
    I, unlike you, am born and raised to rule.
    I do not choose, but like the Albion Oak,
    Am sown in British soil, and thus grown,
    Not for myself, but reared with purpose meant.
    Whilst you have small constituency support
    Which gusts and falls as does the fickle wind,
    My cells and organs constitute this land.
    'Tis nothing more that must be said to you; away, away!

    or

    Though much was taken, much abides, and though
    We are not now that strength, which in old days
    Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
    One equal temper of heroic hearts,
    Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will,
    To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

    Like, seriously, so much of it.

    And if you write something that disagrees with the game you'll get an F, reprimanded and brought to the ministry of love for re-education

    Forced at gunpoint by the UK government.

  • Looks like those annoying HR sexual harassment presentations with a multiple choice quiz at the end.

    I had to do this stupid anti-bribery and corruption training many moons ago.

    "The CEO of a rival company invites you for a round of golf at his private golf club. Do you accept?"

    No, of course not. I'm a warehouse box packer who's been with the company 3 months. Why the hell would a CEO be inviting me for golf?

    I did one of those a couple of years ago

    Who are the people who are most likely to be victims of sexual harassment in the workplace?

    By golly, would you believe it’s people of colour, First Nations people, people who speak a language other than English, people who are a part of the LGBTQIA community, and people who are experiencing a disability!

    "All the people the average straight white dude tends to avoid like the plague?"

    "... do we need to do sensitivity training too Mr Caiur"

    "The sensitivity training is where I learned what I just said..."

    Yeah, to describe this as a "videogame" is a bit of a stretch. It's a modern training video.

  • Not For Broadcast wasn’t an instruction manual Kier Starmer.

  • Just watched the game on YT and it's truly a dystopian nightmare. It's basically "don't think for yourself, and if someone says something 'controversial,' report them." The end.

    Oy lads, this ere onea them INGSOC fangames innit?

  • Kier Starmer: "Is this a documentary?"

    FUNNY YOU SHOULD SAY THAT BECAUSE GUESS WHO’S FUNDING THIS GAME.

    The government funded Adolescence too btw.

    Mhm.

    That’s why I mention that because the EU government is also funding leftist propaganda to promote their crap.

  • WHY DID THEY MAKE THE RACIST ARTHOE CUTE

  • Right Wing Radicalism is now having the point of view of Barack Obama 16 years ago.

    Being a rightwing radical when Obama was in office was literally just being an 80's democrat too

    The Overton window in the West has swung far left over the last few decades. Fucking Trump is more socially progressive than Clinton or 1st term Obama.

  • From the CEO of the studio:
    “Our Pathways game is designed for the local threat picture in collaboration with the local authority and funded by the Home Office, to teach about the concept of extremism and radicalisation and illustrate the scope of online dangers and radicalisation routes."

    Suuure. How about you make a game about the extremism and radicalisation groups of the "religion of peace" then?

  • There’s a new nationalist waifu

    "Right, lads, we need to write a story about the dangers of far right radicalization and the benefits of reporting people to the government."
    "OK, so how about you play as a normal English kid."
    "OK, sounds good."
    "And you meat this racist girl."
    "And she's ugly and scares the—"
    "No, no, she's a hot arthoe in a choker."
    "Ah! And she's a bully who—"
    "No, she wants to be your friend and talks about—"
    "All these horrible things! Brilliant!"
    "No, she talks about how she likes being British and how she's passionate about British values."
    "...and then it turns out she's lying?"
    "No, she wants you to go to a protest with her. But if you say yes and go..."
    "You get attacked by racists! That's a good way to show—"
    "No, you both get arrested by the government for no reason."
    "..."
    "..."
    "...Nigel, which team are you fucking on?"

    "...Hans?"

    "Yes Nigel?"

    "Are we the baddies?"

    implying literally anyone in the responsible organizations are named anything close to Nigel or Hans 

    "We're only making plans, for Nigel..."

    Context? Not touching the propaganda game.

    You talking Amelia-chan?

    Just wanna point out that in the shot of her at the racist protest on social media that's supposed to look menacing, the two men behind her are black.

    So, like, IDK if that's just DEI gone wrong or some stealth racist on the dev team or what...

  • Bad because it is morally wrong.

    Bad because UK Police will arrest you.

  • Activists always looking for captive audiences. They resort to trickery and child targets because no one willingly listens to them.

    In this case data shows the kids have been "turning to the alt right" so this is directly targetted for purpose, not merely ease of access

    This is also why it's filled with overt threats and fear mongering 

  • I seem to recall some autistic kid getting referred to this program 5 times as a potential right wing extremist for the crime of really liking the wrong metal band before...........

    It's funny really Prevent has been criticised a lot for focussing on right wing right wing racism not left wing or right wing Anti-white extremism (believing a because you worship the right sky gods makes people of another race infidels fine to abuse is technically right wing) and here they are with a game about just that again. If it were truly about actual anti-extremism they'd have an option for the opposite outcome like say the kid goes to counter protest and things kick off there or he takes some action in the school against something.

    The best part about Prevent is that as the game tells you, they were mandated under the CTSA... in response to 9/11! They were literally founded because Muslims killed a bunch of Americans and yet they spend all their time just running forced pacification ops on Britons. That's, like, negative legitimacy on the level of getting province revolution events in a Paradox game.

  • Surely we get some mods for this game right?

  • The UK has completely fallen, Brits have like 10 years to reclaim their country until it’s gonna be a permanent Islamic hellhole.

    The U.S. is not that far gone but we have people in our Government that want this and there isn’t much standing in their way to prevent it.

    It's already too late, the UAE is now refusing grants for its citizens to study in the UK for fear they will be radicalized by Islamic extremists 

    A muslim nation views the UK as too radically muslim to trust its youth to

    Oh wow, I couldn't believe this was true so I looked it up, and it's true.

    Also, FYI, the UAE practices Islamic hereditary monarchy, which is by definition a far-right form of governance.

    Aren't they already at a point where a majority of voters are Muslims? I suppose it's difficult to know for sure when looking up statistics gets you branded an extremist 🙃

  • "DO NOT DO THIS COOL THING"

  • Wake up

    still not bri'ish

    Life is improved

  • Whenever they pull something like this my first thought is....Why are governments pushing people towards extremism?

  • whyd they make the racist girl hot tho
