Hey so can anyone find a source on this? I rifled through a few NY Crimes and Atlantic articles and whatever, and I cannot find the source for the quote. I did find a gamingcirclejerk reddit post in which almost all of the commenters say it was fake and made up on twitter.

Instead of posting sub-reddit memes from half a decade ago, you could just link the VICE article again.

“Never read screenshots of text” should be everyone’s #1 rule online

Yeah, it’s almost definitely fake, there were tons of antisemitic chuds hating on Neil Druckmann for making Last of Us woke at the time, which is where this “quote” probably came from.

Note: I’m not doubting whether Druckmann is a Zionist, dude was literally born in Pissrael, just whether the quote in the OP is real.

Obligatory "you hate Druckmann for antisemitic fascist reasons, I hate Druckmann for being a zionist and making a whole game about it" moment
