Hey guys, did you hear that Barack Obama is a bad president? He is such a bad president, actually! We should do something to assert our political beliefs and take a stand for what we believe in? How about we create a level in LittleBigPlanet 2 where we get to kill the president? THAT WILL SHOW HIM!
It's always embarrassing when you get a bunch of repugnant teen gamers talking about politics, but LittleBigPlanet 2 has allowed these pimply pundits to express themselves in worryingly creepy ways. Quite a few Obama-themed levels are popping up in the game, with a variety of unsettling/stupid titles such as:
- obama kill read description
- defeat obamas
- hêârt if ù häte ôbámå ( seriously ) h4h
- m odes to kill obama
- stupid obama
- KILL OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- arrest obama for life
And it goes on like this. I've decided it's now reasonable to assume that the emotionally unstable jerkoffs who whine over LittleBigPlanet 2 reviews are also extremist Tea Party Members. I have arrived at this conclusion using the science.
PS3: It only does impotent political rage!

I am still waiting for Amazon to deliver my collectors edition of LBP2. HURRY HARD!
I welcome anybody to try that so I can point out how fucking stupid they'd be to suggest that.
I dunno. Some of them do have consistent 5 star ratings. That said, it's probably the creators friends.
I can't believe anyone would take this seriously. People had all kinds of 'kill Bush' and related bullshit back in that day, the only difference is here they've found a medium which can even make violent assassination plots seem cuddly and adorable instead of plastering it on a bumper sticker.
The American public? The youth of America in particular? Politics? I gave up a long time ago.
the difference is that joking about 9/11 is funny
Defeat Obama, I've got no problem with. He is a rotten incompetent president. But threatening his like is crossing the line. We don't need those clown with us.
You Destructoid people must really think that the Tea Party is responsible for Tucson.
They're just jerkwads looking for attention, the best option is to not give it to them. Also I lol at anyone who thinks this is indicative of some greater problem in society.
It's expected.
Anyways, I just tend to flag them and move on. I don't want my brothers mucking about in levels like those.
Are you completely ignoring the fact that the Democrats dug that small bit out of her history and constantly plastered it everywhere they could and used it to basically say she wasn't qualified for the position?
I'd say she's more in the right to defend herself than the left was to dig up a comment from a talkshow years ago and make it out like she's a terrible person.
If people are seriously looking up 'Obama' in LBP2 than I believe I will never be touching that game ever.
As for the Tea Baggers. Mostly this is probably a bunch of children of Tea Baggers. Mom and Dad sit all day in their trailer and bitch about taxes before driving their kids (probably like 8 of them) on public roads to a public school and then going out to buy groceries with their food stamps. Then the kids get home and think they are clever by making an Anti-Obama level because they hear mom and dad talk about how he's ruining the country.
Makes sense. These people should probably have their PSN accounts banned though.
I blame the dude being batshit insane.
I stand corrected.
Yes apparently that's true
though too many immature kids online, you just can't stop those idiots
What a dumb shit
Unfortunately, the media isn't known for that kind of restraint. I can see the headlines: "VIDEO GAME ENCOURAGES CHILDREN TO KILL THE PRESIDENT!" "ARE TEA PARTIERS PRACTICING A PLANNED ATTACK ON OBAMA VIA VIDEO GAME?"
@Krakn: This non-racist, non-religious-zealot conservative doesn't usually like shooters and almost never plays M-rated games in general. Strange, huh?
We're fucked. They know it. And that's why our freedoms are about be become theoretical at best. We were too stupid to see the truth for ourselves, and now we're going to pay the price of that blind, arrogant stupidity. Keep watching - Democrat, Republican...they're the same behind closed doors. And they're all depending on us to keep squabbling so the real work can get done.
And don't pull that "most of us are sane, those are just a few people" bullshit line. When I see those signs at those events, the rest of the attendees nod in very visible agreement with them.
