Recently, some Roblox players have been conducting virtual Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids. There have been Roblox players dressed as ICE agents that barged into other player’s houses. They have “arrested” a user hiding in his kitchen and chased down another player while conducting “Border Patrol” surveillance. Roblox ICE agents hunted down a young player in his Roblox home, banging his door down.
Tensions reached a boiling point, and last week — as thousands took to the streets to protest ICE in the offline world — Roblox players protested within the game, battling cops, breaking down barricades, waving Mexican flags, and facing off across a line of players dressed in police SWAT gear.
Oh shit, that’s crazy. Aren’t they the good guys in 3? I remember something about different chapters having wildly different beliefs.
They’re the good guys in Fallout 3 in the sense that they’ve taken it upon themselves to provide clean water and protect people from super mutants. They’re also the bad guys in the sense that they make no attempt to discern sapient ghouls from feral ghouls; they shoot all mutants on sight. And of course their chapter had a civil war so there is a splinter faction present in Fallout 3 that clings to the old isolationist tech-hoarder ways.
The group in 3 broke away from the main BoS for… Reasons. But they were still xenophobic bigots. They just were nicer to non-mutants and wanted to help with the water thing (the only thing “good” about them in 3).
