I know it’s a make believe world, but it does sound funny now that I read that.

It’s good that you recognize your regrets, but don’t internalize that too much. Just get involved.

I’m not being disingenuous. I was being facetious and/or sarcastic.

Please stop being disingenuous. The move was done at the height of the LGBTQ civil rights controversy. It was (and still is) risky to upset the Gamer applecart by even appearing to be the least bit “SJW” because the angry white dudes who think that gaming is a hobby that belongs to them turn out in force to shout down

I think it’s a little ridiculous to knock Overwatch’s diversity. They have really gone out of their way to include a broad spectrum of cultures, and they continue to produce heroes that were obviously designed with inclusivity in mind.

I’m going with the “I don’t care, but pick one and go with it forever camp”.

...Wut?

My skin crawls every time he starts talking about Ivanka. The things he says about her are just not normal.

According to this, I’m a nice guy and a sweet boyfriend.

Ah, yes. I know of whom you speak now.

The whole session was a massive blunder. The American market just isn’t as enamored with mobile gaming as the Asian market, and Blizzcon is, first and foremost, an American event.

That’s laudable, though there are a lot of trolls here.

That’s a pretty typical tactic: produce something offensive and then get offended when people point out that it’s offensive. It’s an extremely effective, if disingenuous, tactic that focuses the conversation on the people involved in the conversation instead of the offensive material.
