“ even if Dems didn’t do a single thing, it’s still better than regressive conservative policies and actions (especially when the Republican party is being held hostage and increasingly poisoned by the MAGA doctrine).”

this is true, but it’s also true that a harry potter game selling well isn’t exactly a huge blow to the trans community in terms of actual material impact. whereas lootbox/gacha gambling mechanics directly harm large numbers of people. the issue should definitely be valued more than it is, hence the controversy…

squideatindough is correct. it’s okay if you want to vote, but it is essentially a meaningless gesture at this point. if you think it’s actually doing something significant against all evidence, then okay fine, but we should at least be able to agree that we *must* go much farther if we want to actually accomplish the…

i love how you think that we should be worried about ‘fairness’ but not for the employees, instead we should be worried about the giant company.

it is a well-known issue. two things though:

that person’s comment will have exactly the same issue. many people who like that comment will do so literally because of a sense of superiority they feel their culture has over chinese culture, and for no other reason.

i think sisi just reports on pretty much anything genshin-related.

it sounds like you are saying:

extreme anti-chinese racism in kotaku comments? water is wet maybe

woohoo, more ‘content’!
