Sena Bryer is right: the hatred that Smile gets is highly problematic

[Magikazam]

In politics, normal or identity, we're just another vote, donor, consumer, or affirmer to people like this. They will praise "black culture" all night and push for more inclusivity all day, but the moment I or someone like me speaks up in the contrary to the fact that we're just being pandered to harder than toy commercials pander to children, we're ignored... in the best case.

I would like to be recognized as a person, not a statistic, please.

This whole thread is undeniably more bait than a bloodworm on a hook, but even bait can serve to normalize something... or I guess, reinforce something abhorrent that is already normal.

To me, that the bigger problem with those kinds of Keyboard warriors. They just care about pushing their victims mentality, using others as their swords and shields, all while ignoring the people they claim they fight for opinions.

The irony of the alt-right getting this upset over a single tweet

"Alt-right"
"Upset"
"Single Tweet"

Your understanding is quite lacking.

Some people are mired in their ideology so deeply that everything they hear from others are all offensive, bigoted, discriminatory, hateful and transphobic. Naturally, they have no argument to present other than labels such as Alt-right.

Okay, fine, you're not alt-right. Whatever you are though, it's mad over a tweet.

It’s feeling upset about someone making incorrect generalizations about people just because they said a song sucks.

People can also criticize something without being mad or upset. On top of that, Sena's made several inflammatory/attention seeking tweets. People aren't calling the person out on just the one.

I understand it feels good to point and laugh at others while feeling as though you have the moral high-ground. There's arguments you can make from your position that don't come across as juvenile.

However, if you're just going to label people, call them mad, and refuse to go out of your way to truly understand the situation, you're just going to make yourself look like the fool.

Stop being the fool. Do better.

I'm not mad. I'm disappointed.

I'm not mad. I'm disappointed.

I'll be mad for everyone, and I don't care if I'm called names.

We deserve better "stars" for what for many of us is our favorite game, or at least a game we spend a lot of time and money on. Not someone who not only assaulted my eardrums with a terrible performance, but then vague-posts attempts to insult the fandom and customers on top of it.

It's understandable. You would think that having played the character Wuk Lamat, some of the writing would have rubbed off on the VA. Happiness and understanding.

But instead of preaching togetherness and peace she chose to crank Smile up to 11, strap a bomb to a tweet and direct it right at the community and Square-Enix's front door.
