Steam, lemmy and reddit are currently creaming themselves over a game which devs makes multiple really cringe "jokes" about slavery and exploitation. Read the steam page descriptions.
Those "pals" are clearly antropomorphised creatures being dogwhistle for humans. And if you read the game reviews, even the g*mers are not lost on that fact (just they love that):
I got into a scuffle with their admin and did a little journalism. What I found out about that instance won't surprise anyone here one bit.
After I called them out on this they started admin-removing content in large quantities so that the removals wouldn't show up in the modlog.
