Transphobia in the WoW community

Why would you be surprised about people on the internet being hateful?

You have entire states trying to make trans people less than human already.

Encouraging someone to be compassionate and empathetic is definitely not rude.

Lol there are people, some call them the majority, that aren’t clutching their pearls at every little thing. In my opinion you lot are pathetic & deserve pushback. (BTW that’s the same opinion you have on bullies so I’m sure you’ll be fine with that).

Who are these ‘people’? Certainly not maga repubs.

We are allowed to stand firm in our beliefs. We can reach out towards others. We don’t have to go down the lanes of debauchery. After a period of time, we are to separate from others who will not repent.

I’m not even really religious anymore, but damn do people need Jesus now more than ever lmao. The ironic thing is that when I was religious, I was Jewish :stuck_out_tongue:

Are you sure?

I was talking about your comment to me earlier. :point_down:

Getting angry at me because i’m against bigotry for everybody is like… beyond rude. Simply put in your “positive” language.

Even if were just talking about his comment, it doesn’t exactly come off as nice neither given the context.

To be frank, i don’t know what Fox Quote you’re talking about here, so that’s just up in the air for now.


Also… why you’re not taking your own advice here when you first replied to my comment Star?..

…Like that’s literally what i’ve did with OP, and not only you’re bashing me for it, but not even being compassionate or being empathetic towards me either… :man_facepalming:

They did. Chat could not handle it. Much like you seem to have assumed someone was on the video because of their appearance and not their capability.

The person they were speaking ill of is a senior game designer(systems) and mathematician who has been at Blizzard many many years. They were one of the main people working on the talent system hence they were there to talk about what they personally made. I met him (how he presented at the time) back in 2018. Very very nice person and very smart. I adore his partner too. She is awesome.

That you, like some others, have made assumptions about the folks on the panel not being qualified, should make you do some reflection. Don’t assume things just because the media tries to tell you that qualified people “don’t look like that”.

Libertarians shoog, libertarians. Those of us who think Elon is a great man.

You can tell who never interacts with people.

90% of people are just normal damn people. You can’t tell if they were rallying for Trump or Biden, nor care. This garbage has gone on too long.

I havent seen anything you are describing, show examples?

This is an honest, genuine question. Has that person appeared on a single panel, or in a video, prior to Blizz’s PR debacle? It’s not say that there is a correlation, I’m simply curious. Honestly, I couldn’t care less either way. Anyone can be making this game, and as long as it’s playable for me, I’m good

It is true the word of God says that “love your neighbor as yourself”

What I meant is I don’t care what they look like or the sexual orientation. I’m satisfied if they’re qualified enough, so don’t go spiraling into your own world of social justice. I didn’t assume anything, I simply stated I don’t care about this stuff, and only if they’re good at their job.

Mirasol is a delusional person you didn’t say anything like that and they just defaulted to their brainwashed opinion of “hateful” people.

So glad we have someone like this as community council member. #termlimits lol

I don’t know if they have or not. I would not have expected it earlier in their career, but they have been senior for a while now. It is possible they appeared on panels at Blizzcon before. Not sure how to check that. I also know when they did an MVP summit in 2018 that they were part of the team who met with us. So was Jackie who is in the video.

This gave me Shaggy - It Wasn’t Me vibes lmao.

I was just curious. As a company, it would be smart of them to put someone like that at the forefront, especially if they’re an accomplished, long-term employee. I don’t think that fact should take away from their accolades though. It’s simply one facet of who they are. I think both sides like to cherry pick certain aspects of an individual to further their own narrative.

WoW community is pretty racist/sexist/whatever. Terrible people all around, but not everyone. Turns out, people are dicks whenever the consequences don’t follow them.

I wouldn’t worry too much; these hateful dinosaurs always get run over in the name of progress. The future will be more accepting, history has taught us this fact.
