I was debating on making this its own thread seeing as to how much there is, but the scale it's on is pretty small. But boy, when it happens, it's a dog and pony show. So, I figured I'd drop it here. I've been holding onto this "drama" for a while and let me tell you, it's certainly something.
So, as a little bit of an introduction to what I'm about to drop on you, let me give a bit of context. Cookie Run is a series of mobile games which has been brought up on the farms a few times due to its absolutely horrendous fans. The fanbase (or at least the vocal majority of it) is full of rabid SJW's. This is attributed to a couple of things, including the fact that some of the cookies use they/them pronouns (I'm unsure if this is actually the original intention of the developers, as they're Korean and the game goes through translation before hitting the American market) and because it's, er, a "diverse" game (I'll expand upon this in a moment). Either way, the fanbase is nuts, and they're always complaining about the game.
What about this cute, benign gacha game about running cookies possibly do to upset this crowd, especially since there's so much there to pander to them? Well, dear Kiwis, as we all know, it doesn't take much.
Now, Cookie Run has a huge collection of cookies, seeing as to how the series has been kicking since around 2009. Most of them, being cookies, have a darker shade to their color palette. Enter the SJW crowd, claiming that these cookies—which are literal dough—are POC and will attack any artist who draws them a bit lighter, er, "skinned" than they are presented in the game.
Devsisters (the developers of the game) love to support the fanbase by reposting art, but when they do, shit like this happens:
Oh for Christ's sake. Victimhood, victimhood, victimhood. They are cookies.
Luckily, this really wasn't a huge deal, and there are many people who just tell these folks to shut up in this particular instance, but there are so many times this fandom throws a hissy fit over someone drawing a cookie with a lighter "skin" tone. I actually vaguely recall seeing a post about "whitewashing" the cookie cast as far back as 2013, so this isn't a new thing for this fandom. The cancer just spread to Twitter as well, as most Tumblr ideas did.
But oh no, we aren't done. No, no, no. This is just the tip of the iceberg. This fandom has so much more to offer.
It isn't only artists fans go after. They go after the actual developers. A lot.
So, two cookies were introduced concurrently: Milk Cookie and Purple Yam Cookie. I think which is which should be obvious. View attachment 2362820 View attachment 2362822
Now, these two are essentially meant to represent different classes, like in DnD. Not sure of the exact names, but I know Purple Yam is meant to be a berserker. He often acts in an aggressive manner, always ready to destroy things. Milk Cookie is more reserved and level-headed. They're obviously a "mismatched friends" kind of archetype, but what does the fandom have to say on this?
So... basically, because Milk Cookie is portrayed as impulse control for Purple Yam Cookie, and Purple Yam Cookie is "coded" to be black, it's racist? Yeah, sure.
Much of the drama I've showed up until this point is old news, but allow me to show you all a newer controversy the Cookie Run fandom blew up with.
Oh for fuck's sake. Okay, the best I can explain this is that apparently, goblins are rooted in antisemitism? I tried to do a bit of research on this and could only find stuff regarding Harry Potter.
Though, this is where the ignorance of these pseudo-woke people really show through, as Goblin Cookie isn't based on the westernized creature we think of. It is in fact based on a Korean myth, and Devsisters is actually based in Korea. I'm unsure if "Goblin Cookie" is his name in the original text, but it wouldn't surprise me if the closest thing translators could get western audiences to associate to this: View attachment 2362922
I'll take ignorance for 100, please!
But you want something even more recent? Strap in, bucko, because the following happened this month.
This is actually insane. These people need to go outside.
I'm sure these are not all the instances of the Cookie Run fandom freaking out about "racism," and there are several other instances of complaints on other topics (shipping, non-binary cookies, etc.), but compiling this shit is making my head hurt. I'll give some miscellaneous sperging before closing the post out.

Not sure what the "erasing identities of nb cookies" is referring to (maybe the pronoun translation stuff I mentioned earlier?) but here's this: View attachment 2363064
Before I finish, I just want to ask this: If the game is allegedly so "problematic," why on God's green earth do these kids keep playing it? Why do they keep watching the ads and spending their parents' money on it? I've only seen one person in all these posts I've combed through actually drop the game because of the "racism." According to you, Devsisters is being malicious and actively hurting minority groups. Then why are you going to continue to support them?
Maybe it's because, and I'm just spitballing here, your activism is performative, or maybe, just maybe, it's not that big of a deal at all?
Anyway, that's all for now! If I find any more juicy Cookie Run SJW crap for you all, I'll be sure to drop it here. And, trust me, with how they are, I know for sure I'll have something for y'all soon enough.
Seeing these posts serves as a reminder that for some reason people in their 20's even late 30's still think they're fucking kids and/or teenagers. Maybe that's why modern millennials and early gen z are so invested in seeing LGBT representation in kid shows.
Biafra was saying this 40 years ago. To the point that it's now a chapter in Antifa and the Commie's actual playbook:
(And yes, just like all the other punks in the 80s, he now supports Hillary and Biden militantly. Listening to the above with the left having flipped from "we demand free speech" to "we demand no one be allowed to speak but us" is hilarious.)
We've seen how shit the Games Journalists are. Literally anyone could do their jobs. But lets not pretend that the second they tried, the journos wouldn't immediately do whatever they could to blacklist and destroy the people who did. Look at how they handled The Quartering.
The piece of shit faggot who hope that Scott Cawthon's wife gets a miscarriage because Scott support Trump finally came out of hiding
He was perviously nekotheworld and for some reason, there are two people with the same name and people were outraged at the wrong person.
Great slogan except for the fact that basically every anti-racism/BLM/left protest is also explicitly anti-American. They don’t hide it, so why try to be clever about it here

90% of gaming journalists are white or white-presenting Jewish and therefore have significant privilege. Why don’t they use that privilege to get a better job? After all, the whole system is set up to benefit them.

This is truly one of the funniest, most autistic, retarded, hilarious things I've seen in a while. Thank you for this. God I hate Twitter.
here's one of my favorite lolcows bitching about jokes (these people really love to cling to anything remotely resembling joy so they can overthink and "dismantle" it, which only speaks to how fucking braindead and miserable they are):

It's the SJW code word for anyone who isn't "neurotypical," aka normal/healthy. This could, though, mean anything from someone who is critically retarded to someone with ADHD. It's a useless term because by its own logic, everyone is "neurodiverse" (the term is actually "neurodivergent") since everyone's mind works differently and everyone is arguably an autist about something.
Meanwhile, the hate campaign for JK Rowling rallies on with glee and death/rape threats:

arent those called "learning disorders"? what kind of knob would find that offensive? ITS A MEDICAL TERM!
Also thank fuck for Rowling to snap out of the woke pandering that people used to clown on her for. The new challenge for her is to win back the fanbase that was alienated. Also are they still mad about her acknowledging biological facts?
And the journos call antivaxxers "science deniers" when troons and alphabets with made up genders outright deny biology...
I dunno where this goes, but here is probably the closest fit - a 13 year old kid is getting bullied at school, because his classmates discovered his mom has an OnlyFans -
He's made the mistake of asking Reddit for help -
Gee, a woman that became a single parent at 20 continues to make bad life decisions, and has created conditions that inflict negative peer group conditions on her child? Who would have guessed?!
I can't wait for the left to decry this white supremacist.
Do we have a thread for the flaming hypocrisy of "Stop Asian Hate" sjws, and the hate crimes they love to ignore? Because I found another suspected white supremacist in action -

"(...) they are literally giving you ammo to attack THEM"
No they're not, the only thing they need to BTFO the kid is say "oh and by the way tell your mom to spread her ass a little bit more next photoshoot".
