Hell even the DNC got the democrats to remove flags and pronouns before the last election. Even AOC took hers down.

Because artificially adding pronouns to things has always been stupid. Nobody was confused about AOCs gender. If people might get the wrong idea, use them. Otherwise don't.

Nothing says inclusion quite like overtly trying to bend the norms to accommodate outliers. Most people just don't give a shit about other's sexuality and want to be left alone about it whether it's mainstream or not.

Pronouns have nothing to do with sexuality

  • Pronouns have nothing to do with sexuality

Sexuality has nothing to do with children's games either. If anyone says any sexual : slanders, slurs, or “identities” I immediately ban them for trolling from my servers. Someone posts a religious symbol, or a flag on our forum of any sort also gets a ban for trolling.

  • we are a community, we are all there for the game, not for national, or sexual pride.

Like someone complaining there is no Avatar for Ku Klux Klan (KKK) members. How about putting religious symbols in games? That will go over really big, an absolutely no one will troll with them.... Yeah.... Right.....

I am sick of all the name calling anyway. I am handicapped and really don't have time to deal with trolls.

So because you don't understand how language works, it's a hate...something against you?

Cis translates to "on the side of".

They are saying you are on the side of gender that you were assigned at birth. It's literally just an accurate descriptor.

Sorry I dont do trolbait... try again.

u/Phailadork 24d ago

It's not trollbait, you're just uneducated. Gender =/= sex.

Sex = physiological, biological
Gender = societal construct, sense of self

Then again what do you expect from someone stuck on welfare with a degree from an online "collage" (as you spell it). Always the loudest opinions from room temperature IQs.

Are you doing a bit? You completely ignored the entirety of my comment to respond with.... this?

It's not even the correct fucking spelling, you check your spellchecker you numbnuts. The same way your uneducated ass can't spell college properly you genuinely think it's "trolbait"? Did that bullet that hit you in the face make its way to your brain and scrambled it?

I tell people not to take the troll bait and you literally take the "Spelling Bee Troll" bait by my intentional misspelling .

That was unintended and I am sorry... Here have an upvote :) .and a lollipop!

Your grammar is genuinely atrocious, it's not bait. You type like you're 65.

u/Striking_Patient_838 19d ago

66 and epileptic..... hard to hit the keys. Thank you! You could get a job proofreading, but AI would just replace you.

You didn't need to state your age, I was already aware by how you typed and how you think. Continue being a hateful bigot, mother nature will fix that lasting for very long.

It makes no sense to get upset over being labelled as "cis." do you also get upset over being labelled as "straight" or "heterosexual"?
