The sanctity of Commander Shepard and Lady Shep should not be tampered with in the eyes of many gamers. Especially not for political gain.
Well, the Lead Producer at Bioware Cameron Lee thought he could desecrate these characters and get away with it in a meme attempting to help elect (probable head of the Illuminati) Hillary Clinton!
Happy #N7Day folks.

Well, lucky there were some brave Trump supporters on Twitter to set him straight, teamed up with the folks who just want to get politics out of gaming. And as with everything on Twitter, the backlash was perfectly proportionate and fair.

.@Cameron__Lee Hey dickhead. You get paid to make video games. Not influence politics with video games. Stick to what you trained for. #Dick

Lee tried to explain himself but was drowned out by a wave of anti-Hillary memes.
@Mudkipz4Africa @leonidasolympia I understand what you're saying. I don't often put personal views on twitter, I think this important though

So, not really sure what the take away is, other than to never use Twitter. It’s where conversation goes to die.
