FF14 director Yoshida asks fans not to “attack” Wuk Lamat actress

[Nestama]

Yoshi-P: Please do not harass the VA and localization team.

How everyone should react: Yeah, sounds reasonable.

Some people in this thread: No. In fact we're gonna find any reason we can to justify harassing her even more!

Criticism is perfectly fine. Even memeing. Harassment is not. Be better than that.

[SteakDriven]

Oh ya!!! you just love to leave out the details of why she was let go lets se anti semitic and transphobic bigotry

She was neither of those things.

There's a lot of sick people who consider all criticism to be harassment,.\\

There is a person unironically going around in this thread going

“That’s a man of course they were going to fail playing a woman” and
“Yoshi p sold out to the sick woke mob shoving these disgusting people down our throats”

That’s not “misconstrued critisim from the woke mob” as you people put it, that’s blatant transphobia and should be called out for how disgusting it is

I'm not at all surprised that he had to come out and say this, I swear people just foam at the mouth whenever a member of the lgbt+ community is involved.

The hate was there way before the article (the one that dropped shortly after DT release) outed them as trans and accused everyone of being transphobic. Prior to that article I hadnt seen any transphobic comments with plenty in that thread saying the same thing. Did that article pour petrol on the flames and pull out transphobic players? sure.

My personal opinion on the character after finishing DT is she was ok and seen the story basically as Rocky training Creed but without giving her any training. I think if they had carried the story over the patches and fleshed it out we wouldnt be having this conversation.

Oooh this is gonna be a hell of a thread to read. Lemme pull up a chair

*passes over popcorn from the chair next door*

I think he means to say don't attack them because you don't like the character itself or the story of dawntrail itself
But complaints directed at Sena have basically never been about Wuk but more her performance.

Maybe it's just me, but isn't that kinda shitty though? People should be allowed to make their own choices and not somehow peer pressured or 'shamed' into it...It really rubs me the wrong way because it reeks of 'if you're not with me you're against me and I'll shame you for it'. I can't help but see it as kinda immature...?

If you are from the US you might not know that this term 'scab' is very old, very old, in countries with strong trade unions. I see it used so often looking in historical newspapers back to 1910 and earlier, like: https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/a...earchTerm=scab

When the union goes on strike solidarity dictates that everyone is out in support of one another, and a picket line is usually set up so that allied unions also know not to enter the site. Strike breakers are called scabs. Scabs who cross strike picket lines can do so freely, but there are consequences as they find they are basically blacklisted from further employment.

I mean neither am I, I just see glimpses of it here. I kinda forgot the context, I asked what a chud is and the thread kinda imploded. I think it was also something used to kinda label a certain kind of person...??? My mind doesn't really retain all that info honestly.

It's fascinating...in a morbid kinda way.



Exciting. I learned something new.

So, is this like a term to shame people who are not subscribing to your cause or what? Because it sounds like it, which doesn't surprise me honestly coming from Sena.



I think you answered my question quite thoroughly. Thank you.

Scabs need to be shamed. They are living off the benefits of what unions had to fight tooth and nail for and are selling it out for a quick buck. Unions are fighting for better conditions for everyone. Scabs take those benefits and then just for the sake of short term gains pick the side of the employer who wants to pay everyone less.
