And? What does that have to do with this article? Good for you. Neat.

I like Sanderson’s books, they’re definitely popular because they’re accessible and competently delivered as opposed to dazzling the reader with prose but there’s no shame in being the MCU of fantasy books.

Yeah, and Jews should sit down with Nazis and have a polite conversation about their differing opinions.

LOL. Yes, why can’t these “unhinged” people in the trans community just sit down and have a thoughtful, rational conversation with people who simply have a different opinion? The different opinion being “we hate you, you shouldn’t exist, you’re pedo groomers coming after our kids, and we must pass laws to severely…

There is never a low too low for ttansphobes to dip to, but transphobes keep finding surprising new lows. One day my jaw is going to open so wide and then I’ll swallow a transphobe whole. And I’m not even trans!

You might be a little unhinged too if one of the two political parties in your country was calling for your genocide.

NOTE TO SELF: Avoid sarcasm, because god damn fuck this country.

I mean i understand ‘if you even think of buying this game, you are not my friend, you are not an ally’. Its literally finding the most well known anti trans advocate on the planet, while simultaneously being literally just a game you can absolutely do without. The logic goes “if you can’t do this one very easy thing ,…

yeah but that kind of just shows the problem doesnt it? corporations that harm people basically attempt to bribe them with empty gestures like “including a gay person in a video game” or whatever

“And Rowling has been one of their favorite targets.”

You are absolutely vile.

This has been all of the dialogue on Reddit/Twitter/even here on certain threads ever since the first person was “bullied” for playing the game on twitch. Whether or not the “bullying” was genuinely cruel or not, astroturfed or not, or even actually present in a quantity or not, every conversation now starts with
