    Nexus mods is doing the bigotry through their removal here. Look in the mirror. Companies are not people.

    Have fun with the political landscape being controlled by billionaires. If it’s ok for us, it’s ok for them. Nobody is gonna stop them with hypocrisy and less money.

      Nexusmods are doing what they believe is the right thing to attain the highest profit, it’s no more complex than that.

      The people in charge voted on where the line in the sand should be (to simplify the corporate process somewhat) and homophobia, they decided, should be on the wrong side. They figure that inclusivity, rather than bigotry, is the way to more customers. (I mean, duh.)

      They are entitled to do just that, as the modder is to mod the game how he sees fit.

      It is not bigotry to be intolerant of the intolerant, that pathetic argument has been dead since before you were born.

        It’s fascinating watching how quickly my side has forgotten the state and corporate censorship of the 2000s. I don’t enjoy defending rightoids but I remember being on the losing side and I’d rather be principled now than on the backfoot again when the pendulum swings back.

        Truth and fairness take a back seat to profits. Got it.

        It’s not intolerant to offer an alternative game experience for those who might choose it. You’re so lost in the juice that you’re ok with doing things the wrong way so long as it supports your side.

        My problem here is that the same mechanism that entities Nexus mods to do this is the one that lets Facebook give Trump a win. You’re all blind to that though because you think this random guy is hurting gays or whatever with a game option that’s not imposed on anyone.

        You can’t see the forest for the trees.

          I see you are incapable of reading, so I’ll just restate this to make it simple for you:

          It is not bigotry to be intolerant of the intolerant, that pathetic argument has been dead since before you were born.
