Killing corrupt functionaries in-game

Post by Freak »

Ok, a part of the Chinese government has put up a game in which you can kill corrupt functinaries and their families.

It's an...interesting idea on the first thought. You'd have to be blind and deaf to never have heard of China's enormous corruption problem.

However, I think that only will give rise to mobs and unlawfull self-justice.

Any thoughts?

I'm suprised that they are allowing it, quite frankly. They're pretty strict with the internet and everything...

I'm also suprised at all the bikinis.

But hey. Its an interesting concept, even if I'm not certain its a healthy or 'good' one.

Well, they are the mistresses, so they have to be 'slutty'. Mind you, bikini's don't exactly shout "OMGZ hawt raw sex!!!", but I guess they couldn't let them walk around in leather ;)

And I think it's in their own version of the internet. Yep, they have something like that, 100% controlled.

And I think that this game is nothing than just another way of indoctrinating the people so that they do what the state wants.

Yeah, that's what I was starting to thing. Smoke and mirrors a bit - thrust out some figureheads for the public to hate, so that the attention isn't on them.

However, its also historical...so *shrug*. I dunno
