Racism is an Easter egg in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Grand Theft Auto IV, and Grand Theft Auto V.

Sounds like this will be the first for racial profiling by police, well if the denial of it happening in V is true.

Sometimes, the cops will say “I only listen to white rappers”

I think that’s very funny and poignant satire. It’s racism of the most stupid and least consequential order.

I always thought they were more aggressive with Lamar vs Trevor out in Blaine County. At least it always felt that way when playing.

They will have to catch me first.

Have cops pulled over NPC citizens in GTA before? Or is this hinting at a similar multi-character storyline like GTA5?

You could always come across chases going on, there were nocshootouts happening. But I don’t know if you ever saw the race of the npc.

I think I’ve seen it before, but admittedly I think my actions lead to the interaction.

Ie: I was driving as one does hit a car which hit a police car leading to the civilian getting shot

Yeah I think I’ve seen stuff like that, but I don’t think I’ve seen an actual pull-over. Like a car on the side of the road and the cop walking up to it and issuing a ticket. NPC interactions have definitely advanced over the generations of the game, this might actually be interesting to see.

someone who is overly worried about issues like discrimination to the point they create their own problems would be one definition.

Woke - Anything right wing politicians and media has decided to rile their base against. Defining “woke” any more specifically than that today will mean that the definition is wrong tomorrow because what is or is not “woke” changes almost daily.

Woke simply means being conscious of diversity and discrimination issues happening in your society.

Also, as far as I’m aware, highlighting police brutality and racial injustice IS woke
