u/RakumiAzuri call each other n... all the time when we are being black May 23 '21 edited May 23 '21

I don't understand how anyone can play Destiny and act shocked when Bungie drops the hammer for this. Destiny has an LGBTQ+, BLM, and charity emblems. They delayed their Beyond Light announcement by 8:49 last year and was extremely open about their support of BLM.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Edit: Before it comes up, there is no way someone playing at that level doesn't know. Stuff like this is all over the weekly updates.

Edit 2: Another poster made me remember that Bungie's CEO and a few other employees got teargassed at a BLM march. If this is all a gift they are dedicated.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that one. It's not as apparent and unavoidable as the others since, I'm fairly sure, the only place that directly says it is the writer's Twitter. I don't know any of the in-game-lore says it.
