If he'd had his career working in the US maybe, but as he didn't... No. 

Mate, we all know what JKR’s dog whistles mean. If you believe the same thing you’re a transphobe. 

We gave you a language... kindly use it.

feeling a little seen are you?

And here we go. You don’t have an issue with transphobia because you are a transphobe. You claim you have no problems with trans people but if you agree with JKR, and it seems you very much do, you don’t believe trans people should have a place in society. You dont think trans women should have access to women’s…

You got all the grace you’re due...

Don’t confuse grace with ignorance pal. Now again I’m gonna have to tell you to piss off transphobe.

Aww look at you going for insults when you’ve got nothing left. How sweet. Piss off transphobe. I’m done with you.

No, I care all of them about the same. We just happen to be talking about a case where I feel that a subsect of gamers are being mistreated over something I consider morally unimportant (specifically purchasing a game).

Exactly pal. you care more about the feeling of gamers than you do about the jewish or trans communities. You don’t think that communities are hurt because you don’t want to look if things have consequences. The Antisemitism in this game is not up for debate. The tacit support of JKR and her disgusting transphobia up…

Pal, sit down. Even the dickhead that made the comparison has admitted it some weak sauce bullshit.

No one does think they are an asshole if they lack self awareness. That’s true. And not what I’m doing.

You’re just proving the adage proving that no one thinks they’re the arsehole if they lack self awareness.

Yes if they are being bullied for purchasing a game. If they aren’t being bullied, then the point is moot. But the person I originally responded to was arguing that bullying them was OK to someone saying that they were being bullied.

Funny then how you only seem to care about gamers “getting bullied” ie people calling them out for supporting someone who actively abuses trans people. Thats not bullying thats consequences pal. No one made them buy/play that game. You’re defending a group that either tacitly or knowingly supports the abuse of trans…

And theres the “both sides” as if bot sides are equal. Fighting for a minority thats being told they don’t have the right to exit, being slandered as rapists and paedophiles and, having their right to healthcare withdrawn at state level, abused online and in real life, who face violence 6-8x higher than their cis…

Dud you might not have said they were equal but you’re damn sure are treating them as if they are equal. Thats what I mean by false equivalence. You’re more interested in the feelings of some but hurt edgelord transphobes than you are the actual lives of trans people.

Sure Jan.

Not an either or thing pal. I can both think that the way trans people are treated is unacceptable and be against them bullying random people. Just because I agree a group is oppressed and don’t like that doesn’t mean I owe them looking the other way when they conduct themselves in a way I find abhorrent. I don’t owe…

I would argue the opposite regarding the effectiveness of the boycott. If it were truly ineffective then we wouldn’t be having this conversation. You would feel so guilty about supporting the game that you try to defend yourself with a version of the pitiful “no ethical capitalism” straw man.
