At least in League, most of the costumes aren’t specific to a race/country, and when they are, they match the legends of the character (like Ahri borrowing from Korean mythology and having a Kpop costume.) There’s the Chinese New Year costumes, but it’s not like China is a small minority of the player base whose…

Uh, the modern world was also founded on genocide against groups of people like these. Seems pretty reasonable to treat their cultural symbols as more than a neat costume.

If you don’t like their criticism, just ignore the comment instead of demanding they shut up. You’re trying to “censor” discussion you dislike at least as much as anybody is censoring Blizzard.

Yeah, I hope fandom moves to another hub sometime. It’s a lot better for everyone when stuff like incest is something you have to consciously seek out.

“Slash” is mainly used for gay relationships, and “ship” covers everything. Idk when that happened but it’s been the terminology for awhile now.

That’s not true, though. Monogamous relationships still have lines to draw. On one hand, there are sex workers in a monogamous personal relationship, and on the other hand you have people like Vice President Pence who have strict rules for being in the presence of the other gender.

“Look, all these other monogamous people agree with me!”

Ah, I can’t edit the comment but I meant healthy *open* relationships. If you’re losing friends over your views on this, you might know people in healthy, open relationships that don’t want to share with you or get to know you better.

To be fair, it sounds like people in healthy relationships might not want to be your friend or share that info with you.

It’s probably a waste of my time but I’m in a good mood today.

Well, I did mean policing women you *only* know on the Internet, but even with IRL people there’s a wrong way and a right way. Like, if your sisters had to go through getting creeped on by 4chan, hopefully you wouldn’t tell them “if you didn’t want this, you shouldn’t have posted swimsuit pictures.” That’s how the…

Uh, I never said anything to indicate a positive worldview. The point is that telling women how to behave on the Internet if they want to be safe does more harm than good, regardless of what they wear. But I do hope that a lot of the worst people on twitch are kids like in this article, who address their issues or…

it shouldn’t come as a shock

I get that women have to hear the whole “cover up if you don’t want attention” spiel. I’m sure that it can be maddening as many times I’ve seen women told they were dressed too provocatively when they were wearing perfectly normal clothes.

OK. The reason people are getting upset at you is because your comment doesn’t help anyone, and it’s also a harmful viewpoint. Like the other commenters said, it doesn’t help because Kaceytron and every other woman ever have heard some form of “cover up to avoid attention.”

What good is going to come out of the comments you’re making here? Put aside your argument for a second - what do you think it could accomplish, that made it worth saying?

The sentiment seems to be that “women belong here too.” That’s great, but women already know that - the problem is a few jerks who disagree. A video like this doesn’t really do anything but remind women that they’re different in a place where they want to be treated like everyone else.

Women want to be treated equally. There was no special segment for men. It’s pretty simple.

No, the vast majority of employers will fire you if you use offensive language in front of their customers. When people say things like this, it really makes me think they’ve never worked in a professional setting.

As people have pointed out in other threads, it’s not the support so much as how he’s justified it. “One issue” is dismissive bullshit. Besides abortion being a basic right for half the population, unwanted pregnancies are also a huge economic concern. This is coming from the guy who pressed Clinton over and over…
