Yeah, it’s a shame that it is so easy to walk on eggshells with this topic as a person who is accepting.
I feel like people quite easily get the wrong idea and the conversation gets superheated when it doesn’t need to.

it’s a emotionally sensitive topic

It really is.
If you guys think me simply mentioning the left is “demonizing” them, then there’s actually 0 point in continuing this discussion. It’s very clear you have no interest in the opinions of anyone who doesn’t think exactly like you.
I’m surprised it keeps getting restored. I know mods have looked as well because several of my messages that got flagged here were restored.
Same.
You didn’t just mention them. You brought it into a discussion that had nothing to do with someone’s political affiliation in order to be dismissive about it.

Yes you’re wrong.
And it’s disgusting that anyone thinks like you.
Look up why the designation was changed by the medical officials who did it instead of parroting paranoiac disinformation.

I think they want people to be able to discuss it, but they are probably conflicted about it too because the threads get so heated.

If I was dismissive I wouldn’t bother replying to you when you’ve been rude to me from the beginning.
You’re proving me completely right, fyi.
I just mailed in my advance ballot.

I did mine a few weeks ago. Thankfully New Hampshire added covid-19 (in general, not only if you have it) to the allowance for mail-in.

I’ve been using advanced voting the past couple of elections. So glad they offered that for us here in kansas.

Blows my mind some places didn’t have it to begin with. We’ve had mail-in as an option for around 40 years or so.

I disagree with that, the Cyberpunk ad was exactly this issue. Let me find the quote…
Personally, for me, this person is sexy,” Redesiuk said. “I like how this person looks. However, this model is used — their beautiful body is used — for corporate reasons. They are displayed there just as a thing, and that’s the terrible part of it.”
Ignoring the sexy part, which could be taken in multiple ways - This is a pointed, political message - and genuine representation, reflecting real world issues. I think it’s great. It’s a statement rather than plain inclusion. It manages to be so much more than something like…
…Pride flags in Gears of War. Anything I say is going to be conspiratorial rather than not as it’s not like there’s quotes out there of EA developers stating their reasons, but it’s just so flat. I’m willing to accept being called cynical or anti-corporation.
It’s cool to be able to swap genders in the barbershop now, that is a welcome change. But WoW is way far in the past about body representation… they’d have to remove gender entirely and make body scales to really address transgenderism, but that just doesn’t work in WoW’s coding. Not to mention narratively the game is primarily about war between specific bodies; without overt racism/specism there wouldn’t be a war.
It’s not about that, it is about Pelagos. 
Artist intent is important
I’m not part of the LGBTQ community so I’m speaking from ignorance but I still can’t find horribleness in virtue signaling. Even at worst, some little kid somewhere can feel included off the money of some greedy ceo.

That’s where I am at too. If seeing someone similar in a game makes someone happy then I don’t really care how it got there.
