That student Yoshida described, simply existing, isn't "pushing ideals". They are trying to live their lives like anyone else. Trying to argue that they can't is the only "pushing" I see.

Your day is really hinging on getting a "gotcha" out of me, I can tell. But I already answered your question. Yoshida can't control the hate and ignorance of the people who have matches. But he chooses to speak up, he chooses to face down the hate he described in the interview, and I'm looking forward to seeing where they take it next.

Two-faced would be remaining silent and not trying to speak his feelings at all. Luckily, I can't think of an MMO I've played recently that doesn't recognize that representation is a good thing.
