I never did like Monopoly

So they've taken a perfectly fair and equal game where everyone has the same chance as each other, and made it in to a sexist shit show.

Men would certainly deserve to get less money.

...if they continually skipped a turn in order to play other games more important to them.

Summary: In addition to women getting more money for crossing Go, instead of buying properties the game highlights women-invented things like WiFi apparently. Wow I didn’t know a woman invented WiFi. The more you know...

Surely they should make it so that women can't go to jail as well.......

That's not the only difference, though. Instead of buying property, players will invest in inventions created by women -- things like Wi-Fi and chocolate chip cookies. But no worries -- mainstays such as jail, luxury taxes and chance cards are still included.

Say what?

Who Invented WiFi?
Australia Dr. John O'Sullivan is credited with developing the technology that eventually led to the WiFi we know today.

and

Invention. The chocolate chip cookie was invented by American chefs Ruth Graves Wakefield and Sue Brides in 1938. She invented the recipe during the period when she owned the Toll House Inn, in Whitman, Massachusetts. In this era, the Toll House Inn was a popular restaurant that featured home cooking.

On well, one out of 2 ain't that bad, is it?

This feels like a participation trophy. How is giving women the advantage empowerment?

A woman didnt invent wifi. An australian engineer named john o'sullivan did

Feminists will complain about the game once men start beating them. Then they will complain that the dice is sexist.

Cheater Monopoly, Millennial Monopoly (don't worry about real estate, you won't be able to afford it anyway), Socialist monopoly (which sold out) and now Ms. Monopoly?

Somebody at Hasbro is taking the piss out of the Culture War while making a profit.

Good on them for it.

Get woke go Hasbroke.

Huitzil37 · 2019-09-10T13:51:41+00:00

Everything about this is terrible.

Especially the fact that it's Monopoly, which is still a dogshit game.

throooowaaaayy · 2019-09-10T14:12:46+00:00

While I’m reading this i can’t stop saying “bruh it’s fucking monopoly”

Keenin455 · 2019-09-10T22:04:10+00:00

Is there anything that WON'T go woke nowadays and remain so?
