It would be interesting to test with other groups of people. For example, when happens if all my review says is "I don't like jews" or "I don't like Americans/Russians/Chinese people".

Wouldn't a more comparable test be "I don't like Christians" or "I don't like vegans"? If they say Jews it's often racist, not about their personal beliefs.
"Muslims" is often used in a racist way to mean brown people, not just refer to a religious group. "Jews" is used in the same way, to refer to an ethnic group as often as a religion.
The two are used by racists in almost the exact same way. "Christians" are mainly white, so racists dont often attack them at all, especailly since a large contingent of the racists are christian.
Is that a US thing? I've never seen that use in Europe (yet?)
You've never seen "Jews" used to refer to the ethnic group... in europe?

So long as you're equal opportunity with your hate it's good to go.
The "Chinese" one, I'm seeing it more and more from western reviewers.

You people are the modern version of jobless housewives. Some random dev baits for simpathy points and everyone bites, hook line and sinker. As far as we know, those are bots from a guerrilla marketing company and not organic reviews. Don't feed the trolls with attention, it only broadcasts their message!
This is where we are now?
C'mon, Valve has been extremely off hands in moderating their platform since day one. It's a problem, especially since their business model is to provide people value for using their service over DRM-free and piracy options.
Let's comment this exact same shit under every single Christian game in the market.
"Sorry I just don't agree with their immoral lifestyle."
"Eww this is pushing too many hateful Christian ideals. Not recommended."
Everywhere.
I unironically want to see reviews like this. I don't want to bother with anything more religious than Doom.
Yeah, as the days go by, I think by now it is just time to start using fire against fire. "This game is too woke - 1 hour played" on CoD or Battlefield just to make a point on how stupid their opinions are.

Where is the text of the actual review? I dont know about you but the only text I can see on that image is the word Muslim, nothing else. Maybe not getting the best quality image or something but it's still really hard to read.
(Edit)Nvmd the quality is better on the bluesky version, dunno what op/lemmy did here.
I zoomed in and read carefully. Don't bother. He's calling it "woke", implying that his problem is just with Islam specifically.

Should be easy to prove that he is in the wrong i imagine?
The game is little rocket lab and actually looks like something I want to try. Can't wait to get it just so I can enjoy a good game and leave a review that I checked it all out because the dev is based and shoots down bigots.
