You know the modlog is public, right?
What a shocker, a reactionary's "different opinion" turns out to be defending transphobia and calling people mentally ill for pointing out harmful stereotypes.

Ouch
i never called anyone mentally ill nor defended transphobia. wtf are you talking about. i like hogwarts legacy game and did not find those harmful things those people said were in the game. sounds like someone is lying
the words you wrote implied someone would have to be mentally ill in order to see the obvious anti-semitism in rowling's portrayal of goblins, being as they are essentially the 4chan greedy merchant meme
you can stop lying now
wow really? it couldnt imply racism? why do you jump straight to mental illness? unless you think racism is a mental illness
if you look at a goblin and automatically think "Jewish" you might have a problem
you can stop lying now
The mod log continues to be public.
the first guy already said that, so i dont know what youre trying to imply. please, explain it to me
We can all see your comments and they are very insensitive. I wouldn’t have banned you over them but I see why a hexbear mod would.
i dont see how they are insensitive in the slightest. people are putting words into my mouth
No, you are putting words into your mouth. People are telling you what the words you are putting into your mouth mean and what the consequences are.
Take the feedback. Or leave it.
Either way, you are responsible for your actions.
no im saying one thing and people are saying im saying another thing entirely
I take it back: I would totally ban you.
why? i wouldn't ban you even though you are quite clearly trolling to try getting a rise out of people
I’m not trolling. You seem genuinely incapable of taking any criticism on board, thereby virtually guaranteeing that the issue will persist.
So eventually I would ban you.
what issue? you've never explained a real life issue. makes me certain you're just a troll
wow really? it couldnt imply racism? why do you jump straight to mental illness? unless you think racism is a mental illness
i wish we had a "boredly jerking off" emoji bc that's what this deserves in response
if you look at a goblin and automatically think "Jewish" you might have a problem
yes that would be true, if that was what was happening here. since you're obviously incapable of learning this will be a waste of time but here's some articles talking about the issue
since i know you probably won't bother i'm just going to quote some relevant bits from the last article
"Critics assert that the goblins, who control Gringotts bank within JK Rowling’s beloved wizarding world, resemble the caricatures depicted in the antisemitic 1903 book, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. [...] [T]he goblins’ appearance and profession parallel offensive antisemitic stereotypes such as having large, hooked noses and a particular covetousness for gold and money.
The game also includes a description of a special horn that closely resembles the Jewish shofar, which was used in the lore “during the 1612 Goblin Rebellion to rally troops and generally annoy witches and wizards,”
Critics were quick to also note that, coincidentally or not, the year 1612 coincides with The Fettmilch Uprising, a Jewish pogrom in Germany in which Jews were expelled from the city of Frankfurt. Although the uprising first began in 1612, Jews were only actually expelled in 1614."
wow thats pretty crazy didnt know all that. i dont see how im a terrible person for it though. boredly jerking off emoji here
not knowing things doesn't make you a terrible person. however, if you choose to continue defending a blatantly hateful property in a franchise created by a bigot now that you know better, then yeah people would be justified in calling you a piece of shit
not defending anything. im saying i like a game. people shit on me for that? how about my mother? is she a piece of shit? cause she likes the game?
alright good talk, eat shit and die
yes that means your mommy too, you absolute dweeb
wow. you're a terrible person
i don't care what bigots think <3
me neither, which is why your comments dont affect me. but still, treat people better in the future. its quite sad being an internet bully
have a good rest of the day Kuori! make good choices! 🥰
Don't enable them by participating on their instance. Block them and move on.
Was that game Hogwarts Legacy? 🤔
yeah it was. fun game
This is amazing. You tried to make them look bad, but you didn’t know your filth was public record. 🤣 Maybe go back to Reddit, trash.
i didnt do anything wrong, and now youre name calling and bullying. that is so pathetic. get a life
If I punch you, but I don’t think that punching is wrong, did I do something wrong?
that analogy doesnt work because i didnt punch anybody 🤣
its funny your first thought is violence after being exposed for what youre really doing in this comment section
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.
I got banned for questioning their bizarre love of Stalin of all people.
They are doing you a favor.
Best to stay away from the entire instance. They can and will get you blocked banned from other instances as well.
EDIT: They just got one of my accounts banned for 30 days for disagreeing with them and responding back to their childish meme posts.
If you go into a conservative sub and start posting “libtard” content, they will ban you too. If you don’t like zero-tolerance-lefty people, don’t interact with them 🤷♂️
