Blizzard Says Trans Rights

OP is arguing that these people shouldn’t exist, nor should we care they exist or give them basic human respect.

As someone on the internet has put it so nicely:

"Sometimes people use “respect” to mean “treating someone like a person” and sometimes they use “respect” to mean “treating someone like an authority”

and sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say “if you won’t respect me I won’t respect you” and they mean “if you won’t treat me like an authority I won’t treat you like a person”

and they think they’re being fair but they aren’t, and it’s not okay."

I hope they do something similar for Latin American versions of the game. We find that kind of thing distasteful in here in latin america. If blizzard really is ‘global’ then they should start there.

Those pesky liberals, how dare they be tolerant.

Someone that would name their character “chubby chaser” finds something distasteful.

And what’s wrong with a company saying that they recognized that a group of people should have basic rights? Again, it’s not political until someone who doesn’t like that group of people gets mad that a big company is taking their side. People only get heated because they’re a bigot, plain and simple.

I will straight up admit that I’m not comfortable around trans people (and sometimes gay dudes) but I recognize that as my issue and my problem and not theirs. They have the basic right to exist in the same space as I and you do and not feel like they shouldn’t.

lol i really enjoyed this. top post of the thread imo

don’t kinkshame others plz owo

So basically u kinda spit on the face of BLM right now. Cause its the same thing. Why people should care about your problem if u dont show the same empathy.

And first if u so offended stop read the story do the quest and shut up

Sorry, but please don’t speak for the entirety of latin america. I’m from latin america and I’m perfectly fine with this.

I feel that they have included them properly. They made the characters first, THEN added specific details about them. Said details shouldn’t be an issue. Blizzard just felt the need to clarify with this one.

Guess they wanted to attempt to nip that drama in the bud, though I’m guessing drama will ensue regardless and they probably knew that.

BLM supporting things like the dissolution of the family unit, disbanding law enforcement, reparations, and insisting that Michael Brown wasn’t a violent criminal are plenty reason to spit in that group’s face.

WOKE!

Just kidding. Actually I have no opinion one way or another on this. I stopped caring about other people’s sexuality and gender (and race, and religion, etc.) literally twenty-five years ago when I got over being an angsty youth suffering the transformation into a young adult.

(To clarify, even when I did care, I wasn’t prejudiced or bigoted against anyone; I simply thought these things were of some consequence in the grand scheme of things. As you get older, you find out that notion is quite ridiculous.)

I treat humans as humans. Nothing beyond that matters.

I don’t think the rest of the world will catch up during my life time, but oh well.

C’est la vie.

I served the Military for 20 years to defend the people of this country. I made sure they kept their Rights, Freedoms and Liberties…Yes, even those who hate Transgender People like me.
I would do it again!
One thing I will NOT do is argue with Stupid people because…

Arguing with stupid people is like playing chess with a pigeon. No matter how good you are at chess, the pigeon will knock over the pieces, poop on the board and strut around like it has won.

Imagine if people got this riled up from the news that thalyssra and lorthermar were a thing.

But 2 characters who’s sexuality and gender doesn’t define them blow the forums up.
