1) I figured some people would say it was offensive. 2) Overshare? I left it to a few specific instances. 3) Not sure what you're implying here. 4) It's a pre-programmed video game character. That is undeniable.

Other people have also posted that this person has made similar videos about several other categories as well. As for defending the video creator? Partially. Did you see how many videos of the same thing, they uploaded? They REALLY wanted it known... That seems odd to me.

my point was just to point out that you clearly care about not being offensive, which is noble. And yet you can’t seem to find issue here, which puzzles me. If this video was making a joke of lynching Rosa Parks, would you argue “It’s just a game?” I hope not.

I had to Google who Rosa Parks was (I didn't know who she was; a little important to this statement)... If people didn't know who Rosa Parks was IRL and a game had represented her fully, then I'd stick to it being a game, for that person, BUT, considering that she was in IRL... +

Once she was known to be in that position by, lets say, the video creator, then that's where I'd say that it would essentially be the same as lynching her IRL, and that's a bad thing imho.

i guess that’s the sticking point then. for me, the suffragette in RDR2 represents real people, even if she isn’t a specific figure from history. she represents an idea, which is what I think you were getting at. YT ban is not b/c shes a woman, its b/c of which woman she is

Well, if she represents real people, then every character in that game should as well. That is unfortunately something that can't really be done though. She also can't speak for people these days because her issues are very different. They are based around the time of the game.

There is also the part where, if she dies, the save file can be reloaded and she won't be anymore, which cannot be done IRL. Also, if a shootout happens between the player character and others, and she dies due to being in the crossfire... That scenario did not happen IRL...

the point isn’t that she gets killed in the video. If she got caught in a crossfire, that wouldn’t matter. The video creator felt that the npc should be tortured and fed to a crocodile specifically BECAUSE she was protesting for her right to vote.

Have you seen the voting IRL these days? Quite different than it was back then, so you already cannot compare the two. (As for historical accuracy, you can, but women can vote, so, it can't be that). As for why the video creator did it, I don't think that has been revealed.

Women couldn’t vote in America in the period in which the game is set.

Yea, I know, but IRL can't compare because IRL has already passed laws to allow them to, therefore, anything in that game of fiction literally cannot interfere.
