Kojima's Death Stranding Has A Complex Relationship With US Politics
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - JUNE 08: A poster is displayed at "Death Stranding 2: On The Beach" – Game Premiere at The Orpheum Theatre on June 08, 2025 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo byfor Kojima Productions) Getty Images for Kojima Productions Even though video games are often associated with American military valor (e.g., Call of Duty and Wolfenstein ), games like Hideo Kojima's Death Stranding have a history of criticizing US politics and military action. I'm currently playing my way through Death Stranding 2 (2025), which, like previous games created by Hideo Kojima, takes heavy aim at American foreign policy. Set in a dystopia in which the world of the dead collides with the world of the living, the first game focused on a failing American government desperate to reassert its authority by reconnecting its citizens. The game ended ambiguously: was the protagonist, Sam, right to help the government regain partial control of the country? The second game takes themes from the first (e.g., human connection, freedom, technology, violence) and puts them in a global context. Death Stranding 2 is especially critical of US immigration policy and imperialism—the game revolves around 'expanding' the morally ambiguous, US-based chiral network (a sci-fi version of the internet) first into Mexico, and then Australia, with aspirations for total global expansion. While in the game the US government positions the chiral network as a boon for everyone, it's clear from the outset that it's a pretty insidious technology. Early in the game, it is revealed that the US government used braindead pregnant women from Mexico to fuel experiments on chiral networks. The babies of these women were essentially used as batteries to power American technological advancement. This plotline taps into topical debates about ethics and technology. In particular, it reminded me of a recent book by Ruha Benjamin, Imagination , that argues that US technological progress is often built on exploitation, both at home and abroad. A lot of Death Stranding 2 's not-so-subtle criticism of the US boils down to a critique of American exceptionalism—the longstanding historical idea that the US is distinct from, and superior to, other countries. While Kojima has spoken about Death Stranding 's ties to current events, the game's critique of America isn't new in the video game world. The game's plot echoes comments Kojima made about the Metal Gear franchise over ten years ago in an interview with The Guardian : 'In the past the US was the centre of the world, where everything was happening . . . I think my stories have always sought to question this, maybe even criticise it.' Kojima has always used his games to push back against Hollywood depictions of American military action as glamorous and just. But Kojima's not alone. Other games from the 2010s, including Irrational Games' Bioshock Infinite (2013) openly argued that American exceptionalism has led to acts of violence. Infinite takes place in the fictional city of Columbia. In the game world, Columbia was funded by the US government as a floating world's fair and display of American exceptionalism. Infinite is quick to reveal however, that underneath Columbia's clean streets and statues of the founding fathers, lies an infrastructure built on class oppression and racism. Toward the beginning of Infinite , the game interrupts the player's stroll through patriotic fairgrounds to reveal a mob about to murder an interracial couple. Like Death Stranding 2 's revelations about the insidious origins of the chiral network, Infinite portrays American greatness (progress, technology, wealth) as stemming from exploitation. Games like Red Dead 2 and Fallout 3 also criticize American military violence, though arguably in slightly less heavy handed ways than Infinite and DS . American exceptionalism is a polarizing topic—one still relevant to American politics and social life. The phrase 'American exceptionalism' is being used in diverse conversations ranging from how the US should establish AI dominance over other countries to how librarians, researchers, and artists should positively valorize American history for the upcoming 250-year anniversary of America. While video games offer a unique medium for exploring ideas about American politics, I'm skeptical about whether games like Death Stranding and Infinite actually persuade players to change their opinions about American imperialism, exceptionalism, or military violence. Story wise these games are eager to critique themes like gun violence and imperialism. I often find these stories moving and compelling: it's hard not to feel for the characters in Death Stranding who are caught up in endless cycles of violence and trauma, victimized by a government that should be protecting them. But, at the end of the day, a lot of the 'fun' of playing games like Death Stranding and Infinite comes from shooting things, conquering territories, and leveling up the arsenal. I'm enjoying DS 2 's story and gameplay, but there's an at times awkward tension between the message the game is desperately trying to get across, and the entertaining experience of gameplay. This tension is more pronounced in Death Stranding 2 than in the original , despite the sequel's overt political arguments.

New York man shot, killed while visiting Puerto Rico for Bad Bunny concert: Reports
A 25-year-old New York man was fatally shot Aug. 10 in Puerto Rico while visiting for a Bad Bunny concert, according to multiple reports. Police in Puerto Rico identified Kevin Mares as the victim in an early morning shooting in San Juan in which Mares appeared to be a bystander, according to The Associated Press and CBS News. Police reportedly said Mares was shot at a club in La Perla, an impoverished neighborhood near old San Juan that has had a reputation for crime. At least two others were injured in the shooting, according to reports. Late Aug. 10, police still hadn't identified a suspect in the shooting. USA TODAY has contacted local police. NY man was visiting Puerto Rico for Bad Bunny concert, family says Mares' family said on a GoFundMe page that he was visiting the island to see Bad Bunny, the famous reggaeton artist who has scheduled 30 concerts in his native Puerto Rico. Bad Bunny is in the midst of his "No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí" concert series at the José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum in San Juan that has drawn American tourists to the island. The singer's next set of shows is slated for Aug. 15-17. La Perla, where the shooting took place, is a seaside community along the northern outskirts of Old San Juan. The area has made headlines for similar crimes involving tourists. It was also made famous after being featured in the music video for "Despacito," a 2017 song by Puerto Rican singers Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee. Puerto Rico shooting victim was planning to propose to girlfriend, family says Mares was planning to propose to his girlfriend of six years in the fall, his family said on a GoFundMe page. "Kevin Mares was a deeply loved son, devoted friend, and a source of inspiration to everyone who knew him," the page said. "His wholehearted kindness, adventurous spirit, and unwavering commitment to family made him a pillar of strength for his loved ones." "Family was at the center of everything he did, and his sudden passing has left an unfillable void in our lives," it added. Mares hoped to become a veterinarian, his mother, Sandra Mares, said in a social media post. "Unfortunately he was not able to complete his dream," she said.

Diallo Redefines Athletes' Lifestyle Through Heritage And Authenticity
Tyrod "DIALLO" Taylor, and Dex Robinson, co-founders of the epitomes brand. DIALLO Curating areas of lifestyle, DIALLO has engaged audiences since its inception. Founded by Virginia natives, and inspired by NFL quarterback Tyrod Taylor's middle name, friend and relatives, Dex Robinson and Taylor have created the Diallo brand name in search of refining a lifestyle suited for the modern man and sports aficionado. Their shared love for thrifted gems, retro sportswear, and vintage silhouettes shapes the brand's DNA. Founded by Virginia natives, and inspired by NFL quarterback Tyrod Taylor's middle name, friend and relatives, Dex Robinson and Taylor have created the Diallo brand name in search of refining a lifestyle suited for the modern man and sports aficionado. DIALLO Originally envisioned as a multi-purpose retail space in D.C. that combined fashion, a barbershop, and community events, DIALLO pivoted during the pandemic into a full-fledged lifestyle brand. Their signature perforated jerseys, born from the need for breathability, became an instant hit, embraced by athletes and celebrities like Future and Wale. "We didn't expect the jerseys to become our signature," admits Robinson. "But people connected with the authenticity." DIALLO is a lifestyle movement rooted in nostalgia, community, and bold self-expression. August 8th, NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA - JULY 05: (L-R) Tyrod Taylor and Dex Robinson attend the 2025 ESSENCE Festival of Culture presented by Coca-Cola at Ernest N. Morial Convention Center on July 05, 2025 in New Orleans, Louisiana. (Photo byfor ESSENCE) Getty Images for ESSENCE DIALLO debuts Act III: Echoes of Legacy , a new collection that threads together stories of Black labor, community, and enduring American modern style. Between the cousins, they both concluded that the fashion journey for athletically built men is different; 'too many well-known brands - simply - didn't fit guys with more athletic builds,' Taylor and Robinson echo. Culture has long enlisted fashion as a carrier of subversive messages, yet DIALLO found that the cut-and-sewn identity supports their narrative. "Though we're from different parts of Virginia - about an hour apart - we found common ground in our upbringing, history, and traditions,' says Taylor. 'The clothes we create are just one way we tell that story. Everything we make is rooted in those Virginia traditions and shared experiences." Founded by Virginia natives, and inspired by NFL quarterback Tyrod Taylor's middle name, friend and relatives, Dex Robinson and Taylor have created the Diallo brand name in search of refining a lifestyle suited for the modern man and sports aficionado. Steven Jackson Blending their own sports backgrounds with authentic style and storytelling, the latest rollout features denim reimagined with DIALLO's unmistakable craftsmanship, with a sensibility that feels genuine for daily wear. Act III also infuses the line with nods to classic American polo and football style, silhouettes that reflect cross-generational staples made for daily wear, brought together by stories that echo community and family. DIALLO goes deep for Taylor, as his middle name is one of the closest things he has to his family and his roots. The West African translation for the word insists on being 'bold' and 'exuding confidence,' according to him. Founded by Virginia natives, and inspired by NFL quarterback Tyrod Taylor's middle name, friend and relatives, Dex Robinson and Taylor have created the Diallo brand name in search of refining a lifestyle suited for the modern man and sports aficionado. Steven Jackson "Diallo is a West African name, but it's also my middle name,' says Taylor. 'I grew up asking my mom how she came up with it. She always said she and her best friend made it up, but that wasn't enough for me. I dove deeper and decided that the name means something. It's elegant, unique in our community, and something my family has always called me. The meaning - 'bold, exuding confidence' - aligns perfectly with who we are and what this brand represents."

DIALLO DIALLO's Act III: Echoes of Legacy collection introduces new core pieces, including rugby shirts, raglan shirts, two-tone shirts, technical cargos, track jackets, and graphic tees. Classics reimagined, like the Oxford shirt, are remnants of uniforms and workwear, with a color-blocked track jacket to signal DIALLO's sartorial evolution. Old high school jerseys in signature DIALLO silhouettes, polo and football references, denim and workwear that pay homage to the legacy of Black labor and craftsmanship in America. The brand reimagines personal and cultural memories into tangible, elevated pieces that resonate with athletes, artists, and everyday consumers alike.

DIALLO "We pay homage to things that made us who we are," says Robinson. Whether it's a reworked football jersey, a workwear polo, or a cropped hoodie, each piece tells a story like a grandfather's couch, a childhood car's color, or a high-school practice jersey, all dear to Taylor and Robinson's upbringing. DIALLO's future extends beyond apparel with the founders hinting at lifestyle products, fragrances, home goods, and experiential spaces. These will be infused with the same Virginia-rooted nostalgia that defines their clothing and brand. "DIALLO could be a soap, a fragrance, a feeling," says Robinson. "It's about legacy."

In a world saturated with European luxury names, DIALLO stands out by honoring Black heritage, athletic culture, and timeless storytelling.
