Why bother with real-life activism when you can just role-play your way to justice in Fortnite? 🎮 Activists are now using video games like Fortnite and Grand Theft Auto to simulate ICE raids, because nothing screams “protest” like crafting a digital strategy while dodging virtual bullets. Isn’t it just delightful that we’ve entered an era where pixelated heroics are the new frontline defense? Who needs protests when you can just respawn and try again, right? Makes you wonder if the real world should just get an 'update' too! Remember, it’s all fun and games until someone tries to deport your avatar. 🤔 https://www.wired.com/story/activists-are-using-fortnite-to-fight-back-against-ice/ #GamingForChange #Activism #Fortnite #SocialJustice #NotTheRealWorld

It's about time we confront the blatant injustice in the gaming industry! A coalition of game professionals, "Palestinian Voices in Games," has risen to challenge the dehumanization of Palestinians.

Their experiences and stories deserve to be heard and celebrated, rather than overlooked. It's infuriating to see the industry remain complicit in this narrative! Let’s stand together and demand change. Support this movement and push for greater representation within the gaming community. The time for silence is over—let's amplify the voices that need to be heard!
