A new video game is raising eyebrows for its anti-LGBTQ and racist themes.

Blackpill Bill: God's Work, from a company called 2Genderz Productions, centers on a religious white straight man who has lost his job due to "diversity" -- and he's fighting back against it with a vengeance.

Here is the description from the website of 2Genderz Productions:

Bill, an everyday American, used to live a simple life. A man of traditional and righteous morals, he would work hard all through the week at a job he had held for over fourteen years and eighty-eight days, always providing for his family, bringing home the bacon and keeping a roof over his, his wife, and children's heads. Bill always made sure he worked earnestly and received several promotions throughout the years. With a seemingly ever-increasing salary, a beautiful family and home, life for Bill seemed to be wonderful. He could not possibly imagine any scenario in which it could ever go wrong. But one tragic day, Bill's life would take a turn for the worse.

The "tragic day" in question is Bill's firing for not being "diverse enough" -- and the exchange with his manager "Schlomo Goldbergstein" reeks of anti-Semitism.

Blackpill Billalso steps into the fires of racism and homophobia after Bill is removed from his office "by part-time interracial porn stars." In the video game, the foes he must fight in melee combat include "crazy doctors, community college students in gender studies programs, [and] rainbow-themed nightclubs," according to One Angry Gamer.

Ironically, "Blackpill" is a reference to the Matrix series, which was created by the transgender Wachowski siblings. Terms like "Bluepill" and the "Redpill," as in the films, refer to a person's decision to engage with a harsh reality or believe a fantasy. "Blackpill" is a misogynist, fringe philosophy that believes that a person's level of attractiveness toward a member of the opposite sex is fixed at birth.

Blackpill Billis currently retailing for about $14. Another title from 2Genderz Productions is the equally problematic-sounding game Jesus Strikes Back.
