OP Got absolutely CLEARED. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone get demolished like that in a thread, EVER.
If I was OP i’d actually just delete the entire thread after your replies cause you absolutely dog-walked him. I actually kind of feel bad for him, but then I remember he’s not going to use any of the information you or anyone else gave him to try and become less of a bigot.
Bro literally got a college level essay on why he’s wrong and still can’t see that he’s in the wrong here.
Anyways though, how many letters are in devoured?? CAUSE YOU ATE?!?!??
If anyone wants to read the messages of the official Pride Month thread, I mean, you can do it, it’s still visible, but you can’t no longer post there. (we all know why). (Yes, OP participated in that one, me included). I wouldn’t want it to be deleted, even if contains horrible things, it should be a reminder of what’s inside the hearts of some people in this forum.
If I remember correctly, that one post/message I’m talking about was deleted, and can’t confirm if it was in that thread or another. As far as I know, there’s no way to view deleted threads/posts. And now that I think about it, based on one of my posts in that official thread, I think the one message I’m talking about was in another thread.
Btw, the official thread isn’t the one that had the most hateful things, those I remember were in other threads, that I also suspect were deleted.
Reading the replies it’s obvious that a vast majority here are not, but I’ve noticed the OP has a habit of personally engaging (in quotes) anyone who seems even remotely in favour of characters representing a wider spectrum of human experience than they are personally used to.
They’re not interested in a discussion, they want a fight, this entire thread has been created in bad faith.
I’d stick 'em on the block list if I were you, engaging seems like a waste of energy. They’re either a career troll or a genuine bigot.
Nah even a troll wouldn’t go this far, they’d usually be satisfied with the first 20 or so comments feeding into them. No matter how much attention they get on the internet, it’s not going to be enough to bring daddy back.
“has sweeping issues under the rug” basically what the cancel culture does lol. And we know who supports that.
The premise of what i’m against of is the fact that some group of people, pretend to overstand other one’s and establish their vision of the world. Considering you’re not alone, and your liberty of word ends when it impacts mine, well, there starts those discussions. I’m for the free speech, and as it is, you have to agree that people have differents opinions from you. Free speech anyway, contrary of what the word means, doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want, but atleast respect the other people opinion, and not interfere in other people life. If in your case, it’s as you say or nothing, then you make wars.
Read again , the distinction was made , but they were also included in the banter with the premise that , if I hear “hey I’m straight” shoving down my throat , it would be just as annoying cause nobody needs to know you’re into opposite gender , but hey , cherry picking points to suit your argument, don’t expect much here either
If someone says something that people dont like, other people can disagree - you dont have to respect what other people say. That’s what free speech is - freedom to say stuff.
If a corporate entity’s image doesnt align with what someone says or they dont like the bad press from the reaction to what someone says, they can distance themselves from that person and withdraw support.
What you think is “cancel culture” is basically just corporate public relations.
What the fk are you on about? I can’t engage in meaningful conversation with you if you just keep jumping from being a bigot to being a bigot and jumping to a completely different topic.
Did you even mean to reply to me? LMFAOOO I wouldn’t be surprised if you didn’t, that’d just be adding to the list of things you can’t do, right under formulating an argument that makes sense.
It’s funny people like OP only think it’s gender/sexuality used to have people “see themselves” in certain heroes. When things like just having a prosthetic is enough.
My buddy explained that was why he mained Junkrat at first. He was born with a deformity and had one of his legs amputated. Seeing Junkrat’s walk and how the team that animated him had him go “he actually walks like me.”
As I said in my previous response-people are going to find ways to see themselves in characters regardless of what the devs do.
You’re screaming into the void my dude. This has been going on since fans were a thing.
Nope. I’ll explain it again. The point of the matter is that you implied non-straight sexualities are only about sex, and when that logic was tested against heterosexuality, you tried to create a distinction because straight people are more common.
What else i’ve to answer you? You said “has sweeping issues under the rug”, it’s basically what do who support the movement of lgbt++ and i don’t agree with this type of behaviours. Again, showing the “pride” on the other side what thoughts i have to “have” about? That a multibillionare company is exploiting the sexuality of people to make them seen better and make money about it? Everything has it’s bad side.
You’re talking about the viewpoint and already said that i agree other viewpoints of people, it’s who support those group that doesn’t. Again.
Third point, the ipocrisy of talking about global implication, and yet, this game have gay stuff banned in the middle east and other states. And here we can connect directly to the second point, proving that this multibillionare company does that only for money, because if you have care to the cause, you don’t release the game in those states, instead the game is available there. How does the lgbt community receipt that? let me know.
Don’t talk with me, where i wrote that, i’m open to talk about anything, of course you can’t do here in a forum.
Gay people not agreeing on a lot of stuff this group brings, it’s visible on every social, or if you talk direclty with anyone interested, and not an activist.
To conclude, i don’t support a group of hypocrites.
Mind telling us, OP, if you fall into a minority? Fall into LGBTQ+? I can guess, but would be nice to get confirmation. It seems relevant context to go with your topic. Seems like “none of this stuff is interesting to me” is very self-centred and narrow-minded.
You dont have to have any opinion - free speech. If people disagree with you, that’s their free speech. If you dont like that people disagree with you and feel you “have to have” an opinion due to social pressure, that’s a you problem.
Yes, capitalism means people try to make money off of everything. You cant blame a video game company for trying to make money AND do the right thing. If they just wanted to make money, they wouldnt have included things that certain countries don’t like at all, because its easier.
LGBTQ+ people dont all agree on rainbow capitalism - some think of it in the way you do, some think its just good to have the conversations it brings about. You cant blame the community for what companies do.
