[quote]Since it's release in September of last year, the video game Destiny, Bungie's newest venture, has been extremely popular with people of all ages. Is this coincidence, a smash hit, or something more sinister from the legendary game designers?[/quote]
Skipping the boring part of the article and getting straight to the meat of it:
[quote]Perhaps Bungie's commercial success with the legendary Halo franchise has made them desperate to build up a larger and more dedicated fan base than newer rival 343 Industries, the part of the company that stayed with Microsoft, and the legendary franchise. This may have led to the questionable decisions by Bungie on gameplay and storyline that are affecting the unusually young audience (Brought in by the game's "Teen" rating from the ESRB) in a detrimental way, beyond the evils of a regular first person shooter.
The first way in which Destiny corrupts the youth of America is through the very idea of the main character, a member of an army blindly following a masked man called "The Speaker." Anyone who considers this at all sees the obvious real life parallel: Kim Jong Un and North Korea. This game teaches these young people to blindly follow a leader, possibly weakening their minds to North Korean propaganda.
A second risk caused by this game is an increase in suicide. In the game, a popular strategy is called "Wiping," where players agree to commit suicide (in game) to gain an advantage. This may desensitize children to the concept of suicide, as they respawn within a few seconds, actually better off than they were before. This teaches children that suicide is not only okay, but actually beneficial in some cases.
A final major issue is the introduction of a giant floating ball, called "The Traveller." Our expert researchers believe that this Traveller is designed to represent the Antichrist. It controls the Kim Jong Un-like Speaker, and leads them against an army of free people (Represented as inhuman monsters) in gory battles. It also grants them demonic powers, such as magical guns, knives, and other attacks. This evil magic should not be shown to the children of America, and should be treated as a serious threat to society. [/quote]

What do you guys think? I personally think Fox News is insane!
Please keep it clean and friendly. Last time I showed you guys this, some people got a little out of hand.
Edit: Alright, who bumped this?
-
Our youth are robbing old ladies so they can buy emotes....
-
Fox News is so full of shit, the whole of humanity has just gotten stupider for me even having mentioned it. CNN ain't all that much better, either.
-
What in the Holy f.u.c.k is wrong with this journalist
-
You all know this is a troll post, right?
-
This is why I miss John Stewart. He used to rip everyone at Fox haha.
-
I would agree...this community is horrific
-
The amount of irony in the comments could choke a rhinoceros, possibly an entire herd.
-
What's sad is the inundation of nitwits coming to this thread railing about Fox News and how people that watch it can't think for themselves. All the while they didn't check any sources or check any links, and in fact proved beyond a doubt that they can't think for themselves and are what they claim others are.

#Rick4Prez Am I the only one who reads tags?
-
Did "fox news " say it or was it someone they had on one of their shows. There is a difference.
-
Are there ppl that still take fox seriously? Fox has been a joke of a news organization for many years. We live in an era where everything is about making the most money possible and "news" is one of the best examples of this. If organizations gave the news straightforward they would not make money. However if they create news and controversy ppl are more likely to watch, thus better ratings and greater profits. Fox preys on ppls fear and ignorance, which creates more fear and ignorance. It's a great business model and they are very good at it.

Oh so it's only corrupting the youth of America?, I have nothing to worry about then lol
