Something ELSE to get insulted about.

First sexism in video games and now religion. Now people get to be insulted over something else so they can take up their righteous pitch forks and act like entitled little children who think they have a right to not be insulted.


If you go on Broteam's latest video you'll see that the comments are saturated with rage and indignant people, mostly saying something along the line of "Islam is the religion of peace, now fuck you.". But surely, there is a reason for all this outrage? Surely this hatred and bile is just?

 Well, in a follow up video, the Youtuber KhaleDQ84EveR make it obvious what line in the video he finds the most offensive. "The Christian Jew god of Prophet Muhammad"... That's it? That's the line that made you make a video, calling for a digital Jihad against Machinima? I have a feeling, judging from many of the comments on the video, that mixing the word "Jew" and "Muhammad" in the same sentence is what sparked this controversy. It's amazing the amount of intolerance the intolerant what us to tolerate.

When I watched the video, I was all I could think was "what could cause this kind of outrage?". Did they burn a Qur'an? Did they tell Muslims to fuck themselves? No. They called Mohammad a Jew. Oh for Christ sake. I just wanted to play video games. I was PROMISED video games. Why has there been such a title-wave of people actively looking to be insulted recently?

Anyone who can't take a joke need to delete themselves from the internet, because the internet is full of them.
