    Neither malice nor fear are good when directed at minority populations, and pretending one is better than the other when they breed each other is again a meaningless centrist take.

    I’m flattered that you think I sound cool, though 😎

      You’re a guilt by association kind of guy, and you’re complaining about guilt by association people…

      For the record, I’m not defending malice. That’s just lunacy.

          Ever heard of “Germany Must Perish”? Hitler was evil, but the fears he used to achieve his ends weren’t unfounded. When you go after the fearful, you leave them thinking their only allies are the evil. If you’re gonna insist that way, I can’t even blame them. Your gotta understand the mechanisms.

            I understand the mechanisms perfectly well, you’re just arguing that lighter transphobia and homophobia should be acceptable and shouldn’t be demonized. Transphobia and homophobia should be demonized.

              Homophobia is people having a problem with how you have fun. You and Nexus mods have a problem with how some other people are having fun. Look in the mirror. They aren’t making you play their version. They’re just offering it where others might have a chance to find it. It’s exactly the same. Why should I tolerate your intolerance?.

              Do you wanna do away with straight porn?

                Now you’re defending Homophobia, because you’re afraid of normal, non-bigoted people.

                Please, touch grass. You can stop commenting, you don’t have to be a homophobe or transphobe. It’s in your own power to be a decent human being.

                  Normal non-bigoted people let others play videogames however they like. I don’t see anyone removing mods that make games more gay. Or rather, if I did I’d be mad at that too. I love gay games. One of my favorite websites is faproulette.co. NSFW warning. Let them have their shit. You don’t gotta agree with it.

                    Nah, transphobes and homophobes shouldn’t have fun by being homophobic and transphobic.
