Using "you people" as an insult won't get you anyone wanting to debate with you either.
If my pulling stats and going "hm, maybe a real world thing that can bring irl harm to people being in a game is kinda bad" was such a slight to you, then don't ask for people to actually debate you. If you won't respect my own thoughts, and the thoughts of others on the subject, then no, you don't deserve a debate. You need to grow up and realize that your worldview is not the only one, and perhaps you should be more conscious of others' worldviews, what they have been through, and what may or may not be a discomfort big enough that yes, they would have dropped something. I don't find the scene linked to be that bad, no, and I found the "BE MY STEED" line funny in 2014's Heavensturn. But constantly throughout msq would have gotten old, as it does for me after it's been played out relentlessly because they're just a 1-dimensional character that goes "haha boobies" for juvenile laughs. Regardless, I'm no longer involved in this conversation. I already spent an hour and a half longer than I should have writing this and missed my work window.
