Yes. You can. Because minority groups aren't the only political group. The problem is that people know it won't be fair.
That makes no sense whatsoever.

They were "awful" because the joke can be summed up as "dude looks like a lady." The issue I have with this while situation is that first people accused the US version of "censorship" and complained how the game was inaccurate, and then when it was revealed why the potentially offensive thing was changed, suddenly people jumped on another camp to try to complain. Localization changes things all the time when it doesn't make sense to other cultures.

Um. What? Seriously, why are people pushing so hard for it to be a transphobic handling rather than a joke that is a swing and a miss? The joke made sense to me. It's not funny, but it's not hard to grasp. Again, I even explained that it's a joke that IS has done multiple times from different games.
Im not pushing anything, it is transphobic period (speaking about different tropes.) Ive seen these BS defenses played out time and time again with certain segments of anime and manga fans, where ideologues are more interested in protecting their hobby than acknowledging problematic elements for what they are.

Immediately thought of the One Piece fans who refuse to acknowledge Yamato as a trans man because "she[sic] is just roleplaying as Oden" and ignoring all the other clear-as-day ways that he obviously identifies as male outside of that hero worship.

Or the Jojo fans who still use he/him for Dragona just because one character in the story refers to her as such, even though Dragona presents 100% as female and even takes injections to alter her body.

Anime/manga fans can be some of the worst transphobes.

Glad they finally spoke. There was a lot of it going on around the Hogwarts Legacy release which was in Feb 2023 over a year ago causing some users to close their accounts. Maybe worse things happened if Fandom had to include the suicide hotline.


That's not what happened. Gunplagirl trolled and made a Hogwarts Legacy spoiler thread without warning about it in a trolling manor. Then the one person who closes their account claimed that they were closing it because Gunplagirl was banned because of transphobia.

Buddy, youve been lying about this for years, just like you lied about Pizzagate and QAnon being real things


Yeah a website that says to respect pronouns is most definitely conservative.

They said "respect pronouns" in the same breath that they also said not to talk about LGBT in a political sense anywhere on the site, which was -- as already demonstrated in this topic -- alternative phrasing for "don't talk about LGBT on the site" because it's always made into a political issue by bad actors.

I really don't know about Vivian myself. All I know is I've tried to recreate her in Elden Ring and Fallout 4 via mods.

Not wanting Vivian to be trans because that would mean a lot of characters didn't treat her right is uhhh a weird take. That's a very common trans experience especially in the 2000s.
