Its playable without mods, certainly. Enjoyable? Deep? Fulfilling? None of those are words I would use to describe base, unmodded Skyrim. If you use the Unofficial Patch because Bethesda can't code, congrats, your Skyrim is modded.
It's to the point where UESP (kys if you use the TES wiki) notes what bugs get fixed by the unofficial patch in the bugs section of an article. SkyUI is basically mandatory as well.

Wait, are they implying that the people who want to make political mods are also those who play video games for escapism?
It seems like pretty blatant projection that "video games are played for escapism from the real world, and no other possible reason!".
I think that's almost guaranteed to be the author's shallow viewpoint; given that this article is from Ebaum's World, a site founded solely on some guy who never had anything of his own to offer just taking other people's shit and watermarking it.

Agreed.

All these years and Bethesda still has ugly character creation system and terrible skeletons. People should get an achievement for playing without modded Skyrim / Fallout 4.

Thought this was kind of dumb
In the meantime, the people upset about not being able to bring politics into the video games they play in order to escape politics will have to try to gain a few braincells worth of common sense.
It's one thing when politics get shoved into a game and ruin it for you, but that's a bit silly when it comes to mods. The mods are free and you don't have to get any one mod in particular so you can just completely ignore them if you so choose. To me, it seems like a better policy would have been just to have tossed all political mods into a containment board and left it at that. If you go there and get offended by something that's just on you.

One early romhack of Super Mario Bros was "Super KKK Bros" which basically turned all the enemies into stupid caricatures of blacks and put Mario and Luigi under a white sheet. And tweaked the title screen to have you choose between "1 NIGGER H8R" and "2 NIGGER H8RS."

Yes, I'm afraid that was the entirety of the content. Once the shock value has worn off, it's just stupid and, worse, boring.

Could the mods be uploaded here? It would be a shame for these works of art to vanish from the internet because some sensitive souls decided they should be banned.
There's tons of places you can upload mods to. Nexus is the easiest one to navigate. Github, the many offshoots of Github such as gitgud, Loverslab(actually has a lot of non-porn mods), millions of fan sites for specific games, Google Drive, and Moddb. Nexus Mod Manager and Vortex both work with mods downloaded outside of Nexus. You can even pack your own zip files and run them through the managers.

It used to be common for prolific modders to host the mods on their own websites.

Kind of waiting for Nopy to get out of the Invite Only phase. I'd like to see how that turns out for a place to hold mods.

Apparently only corporations are allowed to shove politics down our throats in games.
Of course. Because unlike the plebs, corporations are on the "right side of history!"

Good God. As if this couldn't get any more surreal. The same people who once warned us of the evils of capitalism and corporate culture are cheering on corporations being the only ones allowed to be political with games.

You know, if you don't like the mod, maybe just maybe you could NOT DOWNLOAD IT!
It's the antfia/blm mod which bothers them not the mod which lets you grill babies in the Sims or being able to play a pedophilic killer on DbD.

It's simply because they're painted as raiders which makes them go wild and wish to censor/delete it entirely.

Kinda like the Nazi's

Life is too short to care about what happens to low effort video game trolling. Totally neutral on the idea.
