I'm not going to go entirely "political" here, but I'm not entirely sure what to make of the last few pages besides this: I'm proud of you guys. Like, I'm 25 and clearly not old enough to be anybody's dad, but holy crap.
We're here to talk about videogames, yes, but here's the deal. Not everybody has the luxury to "just talk about videogames". I happen to live in a particular town in which many people believed in particular religions, and therefore probably would not have agreed with my brother sexuality. My parents feared for him.
Despite being gay, my brother is one of the kindest people I think i've ever known. The fact that there are still people who judge others based on their sexual preference, gender (btw not the same as sex, get educated), race, or other aspects of their existence is ridiculous. I'm not even trying to grandstand, I'm literally saying that judging people that way is lazy, and the easy way out.
Being straight, I don't get judged if I hold my girlfriends hand when I walk down the street. However, if my brother were walking with another man, guess how many people might give him a look? How many people would think low of him, or at whatever extent think he needs to stay away from them or otherwise find a way to not be himself.
Sorry, but it's not that simple to "not bring politics" into things, considering human decency shouldn't be political. If human decency or treating others with respect (especially because what one does in the bedroom is absolutely not your business) is "political" then like, **** you bruh.
To make this Smash related, I sincerely hope that this sort of thing isn't as large of an issue within the community of Smash. It's a damn shame that people have to be afraid of who they are because others simply don't understand them, or in some cases don't want to understand them.
