Kids are recreating real-world ICE protests inside Roblox
Even Jesus is there.
A recent video circulating online depicts a simulated protest within the popular online game Roblox, specifically in the Brookhaven role-playing environment. Avatars of players were observed participating in a demonstration, holding virtual signs with phrases such as "MELT ICE" and "WE HATE ICE." The in-game scene featured various vehicles, including police cars, a tank, and large trucks, strategically positioned to create a blockade on a virtual road. The video's creator added an on-screen caption, "PROTESTING IN ROBLOX? I THINK we took it to far," suggesting a commentary on the immersive nature of role-playing within the game and the adoption of real-world socio-political themes in virtual spaces. This digital event highlights the evolving ways in which players engage with contemporary issues within gaming platforms.
Even Jesus is there.
