    Five angry Fox News hosts think the popular board game Scrabble is too “woke” because — in addition to banning racist and anti-LGBTQ+ slurs — a new version focuses more on having fun with friends than on competitive scoring.

    Damn right! What the fuck is even the point of a board game if you can be racist while you gloat after destroying all other players?

    That’s also the point of Monopoly, which is why it is the best board game ever and everyone loves it.

    Edit: Also-

    Co-host Greg Gutfeld replied, “So is life!” before admitting that he has never played Scrabble.

    Of course not. Why would he play that particular game when he knows he’s too stupid to ever destroy all other players and then gloat about it?

        I think you meant Mario Party, Mario Kart forges unbreakable bonds through the vicious crucible of virtual motorsport, Mario Party on the other hand naturally develops a deep, seething, and justifiably hatred between all the players.
