Deep throat wasn't a dirty joke, it's a reference to Watergate. The secret informant who leaked the papers that exposed Watergate was codenamed Deep Throat. I have no idea why, but that's probably what Kojima was referencing.

You are right about the reference! In the game the conversation goes: - Just call me "Deepthroat". - "Deepthroat"? The informant from the Watergate scandal? - Never mind about that.

About the metal gear deep throat thing: The leaker of the watergate scandal operated under the pseudonym of "Deep Throat" and it was a direct reference to that. This was also before the term was popularized to refer to the sexual act. I genuinely believe Kojima just didn't know it had a different meaning.

[@pokyboss4281]

I'm pretty sure that Deep Throat was a direct reference to the porno, which was released at the same time. I'm also sure the Watergate scandal was even mentioned in-game, so Garnt clearly didn't call his contacts often enough.

Or in rapid be silly, talk about serious things, even be fun while doing so. Ok it more about him being a nerd, and i mean that as positive and deep.

i grew up with SUPER anti government parents, and it's easy for low income families to have a distrust for the government, obviously because they feel they've been screwed by the government countless times, even if they haven't. I don't agree with the sentiments, but it at least allows me to be empathetic to the conversation. I feel more bad for conspiracy theorists than angry.

[@takoen_taotaan]

I think everyone should be a bit distrustful of their government, since even in my country of Finland which ranks among the top 10 least corrupt countries, there has unfortunately still been some cases of government corruption. Also if you live in the USA, China, Russia etc. i totally understand why you wouldn't trust your government.

[@PawsitivelyQuestionable]

@@takoen_taotaan distrustful and trusting aren't exactly the right words imo. I think ideally somebody should be discerning of the media they consume and the laws put in place by their local, national and international governments. Understand how governments work and what the situation is from your perspective (keeping in mind other potential perspectives as well) and having a solid bed of principles is the easiest way to go about life. Humans run governments, and humans are flawed but also understand that if all of humanity was inherently evil and self serving we would have died out as a species years ago and civilization is nothing without trust and a sense of community.

@@PawsitivelyQuestionable The problem with most people's ideal of "distrust" is that most people work backwards from their conclusions. I've never seen anyone who is "distrustful" but then turns around and says "after reviewing the facts, this seems good". There is ALWAYS some way to twist facts to reach the conclusion that they were right to be opposed to whatever they wanted to be opposed to. If everything looks good, then it's a secret bait to make you complacent to then do the REALLY evil stuff later, etc.

@XenonZed A sitting President stepping down to avoid impeachment was pretty newsworthy at the time. Enough so that the journalists that broke the scandal wrote a Pulitzer Prize winning book (All the President’s Men), which then became an Oscar winning movie. Pulitzer Prizes and Oscars don’t happen in vacuums, so people in other countries had to be reading and watching them. Would Watergate be taught about in other countries now? Probably not, unless the class was about investigative journalism.

[@JonRakos]

@XenonZed In the middle of the Vietnam War, during the nuke talks and during the election, the President of the most powerful nation on Earth was accused of being a criminal. Every single "scandal" that happens now has the suffix -gate. Hillary Clinton was a lawyer involved in Watergate and the non-story of her being fired/leaving her position was being thrown around like mud in 2016. I'm honestly shocked they didn't know "Deep Throat" is now a common term for a big-time informant because of Nixon. Would not refer to Watergate as a "small" detail of American history.

On the accountability of writers: I do think that writers who write about controversial topics are often challenged on then, GRR Martin included. The thing that has to be analysed is why a certain thing is being portrayed. Generally, if you portray a certain objectionable act, you can be in favour of it, against it...or it could be a joke. For example, recently there was a book where basically only the antagonists were all LGBT, and there the objectionable content is being favoured, that is easily identified as bad. When writers portray such issues to shed light on them, or to criticize something (aBoUt sOcIeTy) then that's generally seen as acceptable (in the current moral climate, I 100% agree that the bar is always shifting). The blurry line is with comedy. To what extent are you laughing at the homophobia/racism etc and to what extent are you laughing with it. And with internet humour, there's the complicating factor of to what extent are you just laughing at the absurdity of a certain thing, like with Filthy Frank. Especially outside its original context and time period, filthy Frank isn't particularly funny, which is why people take it at face value, at which it's not offering any criticism or sensible portrayal of the character. That said, it was a different time, and it's not that I think that Joji personally holds those views or should be held accountable to them, but I'd say it's certainly the right call he made to stop with it.

I found myself many time getting between a man and a women because I could clearly see the women on the verge of tears not knowing what she could do to push the guy away.

So now we keep our hands above the table during meals. Similarly, cheese knoves are curved at the end, because to pick up the cheese, they need spikes at the end, but to avoid them being weaponized, the end was curved like a butter knife, but still allowing to pick up the cheese.
