Damn right! What the fuck is even the point of a board game if you can be racist while you gloat after destroying all other players?
That's also the point of Monopoly, which is why it is the best board game ever and everyone loves it.
Edit: Also-
Of course not. Why would he play that particular game when he knows he's too stupid to ever destroy all other players and then gloat about it?
Monopoly and Mario Kart are explicitly designed to ruin friendships.
I think you meant Mario Party, Mario Kart forges unbreakable bonds through the vicious crucible of virtual motorsport, Mario Party on the other hand naturally develops a deep, seething, and justifiably hatred between all the players.
What, you don’t like the rage-inducing RNG events that steal your stars for some random reason?
The Landlord's Game was like that on purpose, to demonstrate why monopolies are terrible. Then you're supposed to play it again using the "prosperity" ruleset and actually have fun.
Parker Brothers completely lost the plot by removing that second ruleset.
