race relations in ns2

NS2 is the most visible example of UWE’s poisoning of race relations. We now know that UWE directly fanned the flames of racial discord. Instead of maintaining the current status quo by keeping the aliens segregated and let them kill each other in maps such as ns2_tram, UWE deliberately brought the conflict to the stage by constantly pitting the aliens against the marines on the same map while allowing the marines to stand their ground and use deadly force without the need to retreat. Aliens are constantly being killed because they are often profiled as mindless killers. Now, what is extremely hypocritical is that Flayra publicly said that if he had a pet, it'd look like a gorge, and then a few weeks later he said that what he was really saying is that the gorge could have been him 25 years ago.

    Allow me to counter this mental meandering with... a riddle:

    If stones grew on trees,
    could they be called leaves,
    provided they moved in the wind,
    or would they have to be green?

    Moreover, what do I have in my pocket?
