Greg Miller and Kinda Funny have officially partnered with the Joe Biden campaign to show the Biden Island in Animal Crossing, tomorrow morning
- Thread starter AuthenticM
- Start date
You mean this wasn't Biden sitting in his basement making this island for the last 3 months?
Yep. That's exactly what is happening here. This definitely took the place of outlining policy agendas.
Holy shit.
We got some real Gamerā¢ replies in this thread.
man i should start only paying attention to video games. seems like blissful ignorance
Oh wait, for real?
I was making a joke originally but if this is in fact Gary having Biden on his talk show streaming on Kinda Funny, that IS pretty awesome. (I mean, not that it wasn't already interesting, but it did seem weird to have a real-life Animal Crossing thing and not somehow have Whitta be involved!)
The Biden campaign has tons of outlined policy if you're actually making a good faith effort to find it.
Like someone else stated, it's a very "how do you do fellow kids" thing.
Keep in mind, I have no issues with politics in video games..AOC playing Animal Crossing with people was at least believable in that it could be something you'd think she'd do in her free time..I wanted more Trump/Nazi parallels in Wolfenstien, etc.
Who knows.. it'll probably be good.. just on paper it reads very cringe to me. Y'all have fun
Yea anyone that doesn't have to worry about poltical consequences at all is really damn lucky.
Over the air TV is nothing be non-stop political ads right now. TV commercials shouldn't be what makes someone vote either, but they've been a mainstay since the advent of TV.
A lot of younger people don't watch live TV (I only know about the ads because I was setting up a new TV). So how do you reach them? Ads before YouTube videos? Should that be what gets people to vote? Young people aren't inone centralized place anymore consuming content. Campaigns will have to get creative, and of this reaches people who otherwise wouldn't hear the call to vote, I can't see how it's a negative.
Given how New Horizons basically encourages you to strip mine islands en masse...
Wtf i already voted (for Biden) lol this isn't some secret Trump supporter giving shit to own the libs situation or anything
Good that they make something about it, but it still comes of to me like this
Even if it indeed comes off like this, if it gets one person to vote biden, so be it.
Sure, go ahead and assume how I am an ignorant Gamer TM, since you know me so well.
I still get bombarded with all the fucked up shit from the broken political system in your country, even being ober 6000km away from the US and all I see is them (the Dems) just trying to go back to normal and promising the usual fluff, like any other politican ever. That is just how I (me, personally) see this whole race. I hope they reach some people with that, I hope that the Dems win and use their majority to not only fix shit up but improve it drastically.
But I'm out. I don't need to be accused of shit without asking how and why and without being aware that this is an message board with an international audience.
I been following his campaign and all his been running on is his take the threat of Corona seriously unlike Trump. When it comes to progress agenda Boden ain't the one.
Nope there ain't that many undecided voters this cycle. Animal crossing ain't going to be the reason someone decides to vote for one candidate or the other.
leave no stone unturned, leverage every avenue to voters we have
for real, imagine what the world looks like to these True Gamers in this thread

The the campaign doesn't seem to know that cause there running on their not trump instead of selling the electorate on there vision.
I don't think I made it clear earlier... THIS IS GREAT! Anything to take down the orange orangutan.
Ooh, so he has been outlining them. They just aren't exactly the ones you want specifically.
This is not at all how the Biden campaign is running and I'm not sure where you got this idea.
They are infact selling their electorate. Very much so. Just because he isn't Bernie doesn't mean he isn't doing an amazing job. If he wasn't, he wouldn't have dominated the primary, let alone the general.
Progressive agenda's? Cause Boden isn't for a single payer, the Green new deal.
Cynical, I ain't about token gestures. Tell about things that is going to improve me and my commutes lives.
You keep going back and forth with saying he isn't outlining his policies, to saying he isn't progressive enough. Which one is it?
Easy to be negative about this, but KF are nailing their colours to the mast and they're doing it in a way that they know how to. If Greg started talking about in depth policy or constitutional law, that would sound forced.
