    Okay, here is what is going on and why people are getting mad. A lot of people are getting sick of the pandering to other cultures that seems way out of place. They just want their games to be games without some political message or propaganda being pushed to them.

    When gamers complain about this shit, it’s usually just dog whistling. These same gamers never complain about the political bias inherent in the call of duty franchise. They’re doing the enlightened centrist thing where they pretend to hold a moderate position but are actually deeply reactionary.

    This is not the case with this AC game. The person actually exists and Ubisoft loves putting notable historical people in the ACU.

    Yeah exactly my point.

    Don’t automatically assume malice or racism

    Void of logic and reason, I can only assume their position does boil down to malice and racism. Or are you being charitable and assuming ignorance?
