JK Rowking NEVER said anything against transgender people! She merely stated that biological sex is real, and hello, it is! You know how I know? Because we exist!! It's insane.

The conversation has now shifted from ethical consumption to are people going to be harrassed or doxxed for streaming a video game. Scary thing i say. Record everything we must.

I never understood this, I couldn't care less what the artist does in their free time or what they believe in, we aren't buddies, we aren't family, I'm literally their customer, that's it. If the art is good, I'll appreciate it, and that's it.

I watched distortion 2 stream it, it seemed a decent game like a 7 or a 8 out of 10 imo not a masterpiece or anything but. It lacked enemy variety, the story overall was just okay nothing special, the world was pretty cool, combat seemed engaging enough, the itemization was meh not great not terrible typical scaled loot kinda thing yet with some cool models.

**You forgot the main reason it’s dumb: Rowling didn’t say anything insulting or harmful. She made a fairly nuanced statement saying that essentially Transwomen are not the same as biological women who were born and grew up as women. And she was speaking in terms of physical differences as well as life experiences growing up as a women. She said she would use a persons preferred pronoun and respect their identity and then as humans. Anyone who disagrees with her would have to say with a straight face that a 35 year old biological man who starts identifying as a woman and puts on a wig and feminine clothing is no different than a biological woman who grew up as a woman and has 3 kids she birthed and raised as a mom (or any other woman).

you can boycott the game if you want and thats totally fine but the issue comes when you bully people who decide to play the game.

And like all these “successful” video games boycotts that Reddit, YouTube, 4chan and Twitter like to propagate; they end with millions of copies being sold, with millions of pre-orders, with millions of people buying day one. Edit: Also, bonus points when their boycott fails miserably, they start harassing and threatening the developers who made the game and/or the streamers playing the game.

this seems like some lib shit to me, i’m in plenty of leftist spaces and none of them really seem to care. haven’t played the game and don’t plan to, but the accusations of antisemitic undertones & stopping a slave rebellion in the actual game sound much more damning than jkr being a pos

Tik Tok is advertising the hell out of this game. The selective outrage I see online is insane. One of my favorite movies is Annie Hall. I even own it on dvd. Is Woody Allen a POS? Yes. Does that mean I will throw away my dvd or stop enjoying it? No way, I paid money for it because I enjoy watching it. These people with pitchforks need to let people enjoy what they like. No one is forcing them to buy the game.

My take is IF I buy the game I’m just gonna buy the game used. Game looks great but I ain’t giving Rowling royalty money. The OG form of separating art and artist.

What do you think of the atomic heart controversy? I've yet to fully look into it myself, but a user made a video explaining the team is Russia based and funds the efforts against Ukraine. I'm sure there is more. But that's what I've seen thus far. In my opinion, if this is true, I say boycotting might be valid in this specific case. The wizard game based on the IP of a rich woman who is wrong about trans women is less of a problem.

My wife loves Harry Potter & really wants this game so she’s gonna buy it. We are both Allies for the LGBTQIA+ community, both of us are bisexual so we are part of the community, & I have many trans friends. I understand people hating on JK for her views & that is ok but, it is also ok to still watch Harry Potter or play the games.

<<@Dharengo
says :
Cancel culture and boycotting is not the same. A boycott is when you don't buy or engage with something out of principle. Cancel culture is when you deny everyone something, including the people who want it. Alternately it's when you get people fired from their jobs and ruin their lives. A boycott does neither of these things. Why are you such an idiot?
