Square Enix's Problematic Voice Actor and the Handling of Critique

[Wolf_Necros]

what a question ... would you feel good by getting called a racist just out of the blue ?

Not bothered at all because I'm not racist and it's not directed at people who don't give a shit about her posts, voice acting or singing.

I’m happy for you, but I have to express my concerns. While I understand that everyone can be entitled today, there comes a point where professionalism must take precedence. It’s troubling to see situations where disliking a voice actor like Wuk Lamat is labeled as transphobic, or not enjoying a song in a game is branded as racist. This isn’t just about calling someone a racist; it reflects a lack of professionalism.

When someone works for a major company, there’s an expectation of maintaining a high level of professionalism, which includes not insulting customers who may be unhappy with certain aspects of your work or the product. It’s perfectly fine to hold personal views, but those should be kept separate from your professional role. Claiming that comments made on a personal Twitter account are entirely private is not valid when that account is associated with your professional role.

As a customer, I don’t expect to be subjected to derogatory remarks from employees of a company I support financially. I grew up in an era of the internet where harsh language was common, but that doesn’t mean it should be tolerated from representatives of a business. If you can overlook this behavior, that’s fine, but it’s not something I find acceptable.
