It's not surprising to me really given that gamers have thrown fits over past games using types instead of 'female' or 'male' but I guess I just can't get over how fucking stupid it is to care so much that you download a mod that reverts the text in a character creation menu. The slightest change in language in order to be more welcoming to other players is treated as the downfall of society by these people.

(For context, this is on nexusmods)

wouldn't surprise me if there are organized campaigns of incel reactionaries who organize to always endorse shit like this on nexusmods.

That's what fucking happens, these losers have nothing better to do than watch their right wing streamers all day, something gets mentioned by a few that becomes a target of either hate or endorsement and they pile on it.

While us commies are studying theory or reading about the new unfolding horrors in the world the chuds are looking for ways to fight 'woke' and they think endorsing a mod like this is part of their struggle against removed(I guess the word describing the state of being removedd is banned? Ffs I don't know how to substitute it, I'm trying to say what Nazis say society has become, a lesser form than it was, starting with 'degen')

I probably have more pity than disdain for these sorts of people, it must be the saddest existence, lonely and detached from reality.
