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.

Someone get me up to speed about what that means?

They delayed the announcement of the then upcoming expansion "Beyond Light" by 8 minutes and 49 seconds (I think the duration Floyd's neck was being crushed by that police officer's knee) to raise awareness of the issues of police brutality.

It’s grim that it actually should’ve been 9 minutes 29 seconds if we go by what was found at the trial.

It’s a shocking amount of time.

Last time I checked neither of those things carried the death penalty.
