Because an entire race of Blue Polysexual Mono-Gender females only able to birth other females didn’t seem to click very well with the Saudis.

    Was the character preachy because she was trans? Or was she just a preachy character and she was written that way who happened to be trans.

    I know a lot of trans folk. I’m married to one and one of my girlfriends is. I certainly know trans people who are just assholes in real life because that’s who they are as people. They just also happen to be trans.

    Most well adjusted people can completely separate the two. Clearly you cannot as one “preachy character” in one game caused you to have an opinion such as “It’s the preachy, political language that often comes with it.”.

    Games cannot have marginalized characters in them for you because one poorly written character who happened to be trans caused you to assume all marginalized characters as “preachy”.

      Yeah, see, I knew you weeee setting this up.

      I know a lot of trans people too, plenty of whom I have good relationships with. You assume I can’t tell the difference between a trans person simply being themselves versus a trans person preaching political talking points on trans issues because you’re bigoted. I know the difference and have plenty of tolerance for trans people. There’s a difference between being trans and shoving political opinions down people’s throats every chance you get, and the fact that you can’t tell the difference is the real problem.

        The fact you use the phrase “have plenty of tolerance for trans people” says you don’t respect trans people. You just tolerate their existence.

        I would hate for them to see who I would assume is a friend of their to say “I tolerate their existence”.

        You’re genuinely a horrible person. And no one is “shoving political opinions” down your throat. Trans people exist and have the right to exist. If their existence is political, you’re a fucking asshole.
