    Yes...indeed. But you know, so were dinosaur bones! I mean really, such huge creatures walking the earth? Preposterous. So the were obviously put in there on purpose for some reason... The question is though, who put them there, and for what reason.

    Seriously though, I was prepared to take the topic at face value until you wrote the following;
    My issue is the political rhetoric in the description. It doesn't describe shark fin soup at all. It was obviously put in there on purpose for some reason. It's a common misconception encouraged by people profiteering from killing endangered sharks. I think it is to help defend a shameful practice that still exists in the world today. The fact that SE put a bold faced lie into the description of one of the most controversial food dishes in the world tells me all I need to know.
    It appears to me that you are implying that there is a political purpose to the color text on a craft item in this game, that the color text has nothing to do with the item or game and that further more, there is an agenda somehow supporting the killing of sharks for their fins. You're also implying a financial interest for SE in the proceeds from the harvesting and sale of shark fins. The shameful thing here is your irresponsible conduct. I believe that you're trolling, and that in fact you are damaging the 'cause' of stopping the abuse and slaughter of sharks as well as directly impuning SE's conduct. Frankly, I can't understand why you're still posting here, either way, I'm convinced you're trolling.

    according to this thread, videogames apparently have no cultural influence and thus no cultural value. also, nobody can discern the difference between abstract game mechanics and overarching messages in an artistic work

    perfect. my graduate thesis is now proven
