Actually they get away with it because these came out before the current wave of right wing outrage over minorities. Make no mistake, if HL2 came out today a bunch of people would be screeching about how Valve went woke putting Alyx in the game

@ButlersRevenge @alexdnz Like their is some depth but only in the comics not in the game but even a lot of that is played for laughs. All of them in game are just a bunch of goof ball comedy characters (and that's ok)

@ButlersRevenge @alexdnz Have you never read the comics

@ButlersRevenge @alexdnz You didn't read the comics.

@ButlersRevenge @alexdnz literally all the mercs one-note comic-relief character who's entire personality is a haha funny stereotype outside the comics

@ButlersRevenge @alexdnz Yeah, but all of the characters in TF2 are, so it evens itself out

@ButlersRevenge @alexdnz It’s a bit odd that people are giving you shit, so I thought I’d go and look at demo man’s main moments in the Mann co no more series;

@ButlersRevenge @alexdnz uh every character in tf2 is a "one-note comic relief character" it's a cartoon game
