MODERATORS
An analogy is a comparison between two different things for the purpose of explaining an often unfamiliar concept.
In this case, it works perfectly regardless of your comprehension.
However, I’m sure you comprehend it fine, you just don’t want the conversation to progress because you’ll be painted in a corner. You already know that what you did was offensive but because you don’t think you’re “wrong,” you feel attacked. Everyone knows you posted that with the specific intent to get into an argument. When you were denied that argument, you got angry and posted this—which you found did not get the validation you craved.
Now you’re trying to play the victim to mock what you consider to be oversensitivity. The real oversensitivity it you giving a shit who is in a game. ❄️
i comprehended the analogy. me not punching anybody means i didnt do anything offensive. i mean, really, think about it. i still dont get why those 2 comments are what got me banned. nobodies given a reason, they just want to find a victim and attack them, like what youre doing right now
and what do you mean my oversensitivity is me caring who is in a game? what are you referring to? i seriously don't know
But you did punch them, metaphorically. You posted the questionable content to a community you knew would be hurt by it. That action was intentional. Regardless that you feel you did nothing wrong, to them you did.
I guess you could see this as a lesson.
what quetionable content? i just said i like the game, it put a huge smile on my mothers face to explore hogwarts, which that alone was worth the 30 bucks i spent on it
We can see the ban reason and your content.

im aware. how are those 2 comments ban worthy or even offensive?
I’m sure the comment was interpreted as suggesting that conservatives are not hate-mongers, which would anger many people who experience the hate of the conservative parties on a daily basis. If you’re not in one of those hated groups, good for you!
oh, that comment was meant that if the makers of the game were the conservative hate mongers, why would they have the nicest character in the game be trans. or have the male voice be from a gay voice actor
Because the game developers are not, J. K. Rowling is the conservative piece of shit. I’m sure the writers of the game added those characters as a much deserved middle finger to J. K. Rowling.
i read on tvtropes the male voice actor already recorded all his lines by the time rowling said those things, and that he wont be a part of the franchise anymore
Good for them.
