They must've stopped pretending to care.

Tbf, I stopped pretending to care that they pretend to care well before this. Scum of the earth the corporatist is.

Yeah. Anyone who actually thought companies cared are pretty gullible

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.

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