    Reminds of a South Park game where the difficulty slider is the character skin color slider

    I don’t like games in which difficulty can’t be changed down the line and death is permanent…and there’s too much RNG.

      You can ignore the RNG if you’re rich, beautiful or talented.

        If you have at least one of the first two you don’t need the third one.

          Hell, if you have the first one at a certain level, you can ignore the other two just fine. Money covereth a multitude of sins.

          The or implies that you only need one of the three.

            But the third one is the only one with actual value.

                  Society has decided that being rich or beautiful has a value to it as well though.

        That’s part of the RNG and the predetermined difficulty setting.

        “professional athlete” is a very low bar and is not the ticket to an easy life that you suggest.

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minor_league_football_(gridiron)

        Elite and famous athletes have very high potential earnings, but stand atop a very large pyramid of hopeful amateurs and less-elite but still full-time-for-money professionals.

      I know every time I see a comic posted in a comic strip community my first question is “does this comic solve a problem?”

      Correct.

      Pointing out that way too many things are simply harder for Americans who appear black is called “recognizing that there is a problem”, which most adults agree is the very first step to solving problems.

        i agree recognizing the problem is crucial, but this meme just ruins the chance of that happening.

            that was a thought experiment. ofc racism exists. Right now in canada its mostly against south-asian people (Indian). The shit i see people say about them is disgusting.

              Vancouver or Toronto? Because as a french Canadien I feel like we aren’t that picky when it comes to racism. Hell even being french Canadian is still offensive in the prairies.

          How so?

          The comic looks like a pretty clear joke that identified the issue in a straightforward issue.

                that’s not the point. This whole “snowflake” game of insulting each other does nothing to try and fix the issue.
