You know what they say: go woke, you blew up my battleship.
For some it for sure was
This is what I don't understand. Yes, corporations pander to marginalised demographics, but I have not once seen them lose significant income or have been boycotted. Fascist corporations, meanwhile, lost customers and stocks like Target and Tesla.
Like really, who's going broke? Methinks this is projection from the right, or disinformation from state or non-state actors alike to keep the population divided.
To be right wing is to be ruled by emotions. Humans are all emotional creatures, but for some people it reaches a point where emotion alone creates reality. Facts are there to be picked up or set aside to support feelings. When their guy eats ice cream it's because he's a man of the people. When your guy eats ice cream it's because he's a baby. Facts don't matter. It's feelings.
And most of their feelings seem to be fear. Fear of loss. Fear of humiliation. You can show them stats and history demonstrating how, like, a diverse workforce leads to higher productivity and greater happiness, but that doesn't matter. They're not looking at facts. They're feeling feelings.
Imagine trying to talk to someone who's drunk. That's the right wing, except all the time and they can't really sober up. Honestly, it sounds like hell.

I like that this demon boy is obviously holding that poor family hostage and they have to indulge his every bullshit.
I can't see anywhere on the box it claims it's fun for the entire family. It's a two person game after all.
In fairness, you're right. I just spent a few minutes looking at higher resolution images of the box and it does not make that claim.
That said, the meme captures the spirit of an era pretty perfectly. I still think it hits the nail on the head.
What? I see an entire family having fun: men with the advertised product and women with seeing their men happy.
I don’t understand the complaints here.
The woman must never interrupt the man, for men do important things
…and the women wash the dishes.
Under His Eye.
Blessed be the fruit.

MAGAots:
SEE? EVERYONE IS HAVING FUN! NOT A WOKE ASPECT IN SIGHT!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME ON THIS MATTER!
The re-release fixed the woman problem
Rest assured, the women are still in the kitchen. it's just behind a wall now so they don't bother the men.
Can't misrepresent women if you don't represent them. Taps forehead.
Real "I can't be racist towards a race that no longer exists" energy.
No misogyny if no women 💯

The scary part is, that for them "everyone" is having fun. Because women are usually not included in their everyone.
If course not, "everyone" refers to people, not things.

In the last frame there is a thing that looks like a post it note or a paper stuck to the wall which we don't see in the previous two frames - and they're all supposed to be the same image, only zoomed in. It's too blurry to be read but it appears to have something written on it, any clues as to what that is?
In the before-times people would purchase objects that were displayed on "shelves". They would pick the object up and carry it to a "cashier" who would then look at a small sticker called a "price tag" on the item, and charge the customer that amount.
Still, it's weird that the zoomed-in image came from a different copy of the game than the other two. (Or that they took off the sticker before taking another photo, and then didn't use that new photo for the zoomed-in image.)
I feel like the “ai” upscaling comment is probably right. The women in the last frame have a lot more detail and contrast, in addition to a partially illegible price tag that wasn’t there before.
Like, it could be from a different photo, but why would the creator go find a whole different picture when they had one right in front of them?

What's the problem? It's just like my favorite book, Men Are From Mars, Women Belong In The Kitchen Making Me A Fried Bologna Sandwich.
Can I share this in !WomensStuff@lazysoci.al it's right up our street
OK but those dishes better be done before you do.
/s also it's not oc so it's definitely fair game for stealing/crossposting
Fuck you for making me laugh at this.

Only if you pay OP royalties per click
Even if it's hallucinated by the AI who enlarged the image, I like how the wife has smeared lipstick on her like Joker
I think that's a knife in her left hand
The girl whispers "do it mom"
I think this meme is quite a bit older than the AI craze.
I had this box & I always thought it was weird the sister didn’t want play.
