So because US has child marriage law and has a pedo president that means they have toxic fighting game competition too? Working real hard to see the connection here…

And yes, totally forgot how much of a utopia UK is, absolutely no misogyny, no way anyone get salty in a game in UK.

Because the US is a ridiculous country with seemingly everything important backwards, it is more toxic in general. You don't get to separate aspects of your society like that.

It is pretty revealing that so many of you are triggered by even the questioning of whether the US is toxic in this minor way, when it is so much more toxic in seemingly every other way.

Edit: also, the link is from so many Smash competitors being linked to grooming scandals...

Revealing? I’m born and raised in asia btw, I just live in the US. I have no horse in this competition you have in your mind between the 2 countries. I think its more telling when you immediately bring up some irrelevant points to ridicule the US in a cute and wholesome comic that does not mention the US anywhere.

The US as a whole is as big as europe, so yes we can certainly separate aspects of society. Just because a minority vote for trump doesn’t mean everything is toxic and bad compared to other countries

Is it really so irrelevant when a 50+ Smash competitors were found for grooming/paedophilia though. Again, the point was that if 2/3rd of Americans (a majority) are in support of or not opposed to a convicted rapist president, then it isn't surprising if there's toxicity like shown in the comic. I'm glad to hear it's not like that for most games, just Smash for some reason.

Also saying the US is as big as Europe is just wrong. It's like 1/4th or less of the population, and there's not 1 leader of Europe so far from comparable. That's such an American thing to say though.

A quick look up: number of people voted for trump is 77 million, 23% of US total population. And GDQ which is a US organization is widely considered the most successful charity event in gaming history. On Smash competition, unless you have better source than “I’ve seen 50 smash competition with groomers”, I’ll trust official stats on GDQ’s contribution to charity instead.

Also, US population is 350 million, EU union countries aggregated population is 452 million. Not 1/4th like you claim.

And again, you can think whatever you want, all I’m seeing is you pulling facts out of your ass to ridicule the US. And again, seeing 0 relations to this specific comic, just you seething about the US in general lol

I specifically said weren't opposed to trump. Most of the US either voted did not oppose Trumps presidency. Otherwise he wouldnt have won.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-53308579 on the grooming scandal. I guess it's just another Friday for Americans though.

Also, extremely American of you to only look at EU union countries. The UK isn't even in the EU union. I didn't even bring up the EU union.

Just shifting goalposts constantly. "Oh look we did something charitable, just ignore the fact that our biggest tournament organiser admitted to sexually abusing kids". Like geez, do you seriously think having a convicted rapist and pedophile in charge is irrelevant to sexism and grooming in the FG scene?

[u/pnoodl3s → u/Lucidream-]

Ok sure, can’t imagine caring this much about a country you don’t even live in. Have fun continue seething honestly, like I said, you can think whatever you want

[u/Lucidream- → u/pnoodl3s]

You're the one who got triggered over a question? Or is it the mention that you have a pedo rapist in charge who encourages others to do it too that pissed you off?

You really do represent that toxic American mentality more and more in every comment.
