Frustrating relative lack of LGBT NPCs in this game

[Shin96]

Is this point, I also say I'm a ginger and a celt, two groups not included in the Nazi's Ubermensch principle, and Hitler even stopped us from marrying and producing children because our children would be too unruly but then again, I'm Scottish, I'm used to that.

In which case Hitler never gave any gay and other minorities any labels but instead euthanized; gassed them. He was a brutal tyrant with no remorse. It upsets me when I see people throw this word out without knowing the definition. It means National Socialist of course, but has far darker descriptions and implications and should only be used when accurate.

Best to let this thread die. Whoever necro'd this topic got his kicks out and all it did was draw away attention from what was being discussed (housing, gameplay, etc.)

It's also wrong to use it since the Nazis haven't existed since 1945 Germany, it's just used to slander people.

That's what alot of people like to use as last resort.

To be honest I was waiting for it with how the discussion was popping off earlier lol. I sure do love hearing about the "tolerance" people tend to speak of until you disagree with them. The fact that this thread hasn't been nuked yet is amazing tbh

I think the moderators like to watch the forums burn sometimes. They've fed more than a few people over the years to the wolves of GD.

Yes I suspect they do. Very disgusting if you ask me. Square absolutely should investigate wether or not they do their job. This is not helping any of us.

It's odd, too, since the threads trying to cause drama over the 'Z' title were - quite rightly - removed altogether when they devolved into outright hostility.

I can't wait for the day where more businesses wake up to the fact that LGBT 'movements' are different to LGBT individuals. A significant chunk of gay people, myself included, want nothing to do with the weird attempts to force other people to get involved with identity politics. Especially when they're being pushed through a very biased and narrow lens. A decent amount of people posting here are European, not American. So much like I wouldn't expect people to get involved with local or national movements in my country, I expect the same from other people.

Especially when most people have their own issues to deal with and exist outside of the Twitter sphere. A place in itself which arguably has very little basis in reality.

...and in case it isn't obvious, calling European posters 'Nazis' is reprehensible for many reasons, not in the least because many of us have relatives who fought and died during WW1 and WW2.

Still waiting on this thread to be locked. The topic derailed a long time ago & it’s very rare people stay on the subject. This thread often results in arguments.

We need regular moderation on the forums because this is ridiculous. The topic shouldn’t of gone on for this long.

So who here likes Iron Bru? We need something to talk about if we want it at 100.

I kinda miss when this thread was about 'Subtlety Vs Direct’ inclusion. Sure trying to convince people for the 21st time that no, we actually do not want LGBTQ+ characters with just one trait felt like banging my head against a wall, at least then it kinda had a a basis in the topic at hand!

I would have liked to try and explain why I think despite their flaws, LGBTQ+ and apparent ‘identity politics’ organisations and movements really are still needed in the world given how equality laws are being rolled back and places like the UK are becoming more and more hostile to trans folk by the day, but I feel doing that here on a MMO forum would be like lighting a candle with slippery hands in a fireworks factory.

Also, I do think its sad to call people degenerates for simply shipping fictional characters. Let people do what they want! Its not harming anyone. Besides, we are all gonna be degenerates in someones view. None of us are perfect!
