A Sincere Thanks To Blizzard

Community General Discussion
1

In the past couple of months, I and many others have seen blizzard adding representation and standing for human rights. Which is something I feel I need to thank Blizzard for. From looking into the beta and the latest book. It is obvious that blizzard has began adding LGBT representation, which is a huge thing in my opinion and that itself is commendable. Blizzard has also started giving people support, donating to a BLM organization during these troubling times. I feel that also needs thanks. Blizzard isn’t afraid to stand up for what they believe in. Many would bring up the thing that happened last year that wasn’t a good look for blizzard. But to me, it was a mistake for them however they clearly are doing good and standing up for what is right. Which is why I feel the need to thank blizzard.

This is a sincere thank you, please continue what you are doing blizzard it truly is wonderful to know a huge company like you supports LGBT people and BLM.

They don’t believe in it they are pandering to public opinion.

I disagree, nobody is boycotting them over not having it in the game. I simply believe that they realize that they should have these things added. I’ll be glad that they added them now instead of even later down the line. I don’t think it is pandering at all.

Why would they ever decide that in the lore of a video game they needed to denote a characters sexual orientation. It doesn’t matter to the lore, it doesn’t matter for the person. Its fine to be LQBTQ but the world doesn’t need you to shout it from the rooftops. The reason they are adding this is because of recent public opinion shifts to be more about inclusion of minorities. If sexual orientation mattered at all in the lore every person would have one not this one random person in Shadowlands.

“We’re for Blacks, Lesbians, Gays, etc etc … unless China gives us the evil eye. Then we’ll condemn them to a fiery death.”

Yeah. If they were truly for human rights … they’d sever all ties with every country that is rife with human right violations.

Took six posts to find the first “it’s okay to be LGBT as long as I don’t realize you exist.”

Hey guys, guys I’m straight. Omg. Your sexual orientation matters not all for your character. I don’t care what you are. I care who you are. And romance has never been a part of WoW so sexual orientation is also not a part. The better question is why should it be a part of the game?

So when can we expect Blizzard to condemn China’s systemic destruction of the Uyghurs?

You should read the BLM mission statement to see what they, BLM, stand for. The fact that anyone supports BLM also means you support the destruction of the nuclear family unit.

I only recently returned, but if I see any BLM BS in a official capacity I will quit this game and completely uninstall it.

BLM is a Marxist group founded by Marxists.

Malfurion and Tyrande
Kalec and Jaina
Arthas and Jaina
Nathanos and Sylvanas technically almost were a thing
Kalec and Aneeva

Medivh and Garona while retconned still a valid part of it
Alleria and Turalyon
Durotan and Draka
Aggra and thrall
Korialstraza and Alexstraza

Need me to name more? Sexual orientation is clearly a part.

The better question is why shouldn’t there be? There is a plethora of straight couples.

Isn’t that like a dragon.

No idea who they are.

No idea.

No idea who korialstraza is.
I’m feeling like half of this is from books.

Well then there shouldn’t be people raving about it on the forums. Since, like the other ones it doesn’t matter in game.

Make it fluid and don’t make it an obvious attempt at pandering, lol, this is the issue with this diversity hijack - alter current things that’ve been ‘current’ for years in order to favour pandering and inclusion and change characters in order to fit agendas.

I’m aware you’re fine with that because you people have literally no obligation to structure, just clown world emotional REEEE’ing but, yes.
