You do actually grasp they are mentally Ill don’t you, this isn’t trying to be nasty it’s a actual fact, anorexia is labelled a “eating disorder”, but is actually a psychiatric illness and is treated as such, the brain is telling them they are overweight when they are dangerously thin, it’s no different with trans their brains are telling them something that is not true, most of them are on the autism scale and have a plethora of other psychiatric illnesses.

Do you think you convince anyone with your feelings over facts routine?
Trans rights should not come at the expense of women's rights ffs.
I always wanted to be a professional footballer. I'm still fit so I think I'll identify as a 16 year old (why not?) female so I can try my luck at Chelsea FC in women's football.
Who knows, maybe I'll win the premier league so I can be called stunning and brave.
And If anyone says it is unfair for me to take a woman's place I'll just call them bigots, transphobes, racists and TERFS because they won't be respecting the rights of a beautiful woman who just happens to have a cock and balls.

It sure as shit doesn't mean that they are identical to ciswomen. It doesn't mean that theynwere born biological female or that they have two X chromosomes? We all agree on the science. Any attempt to frame this as if any of these points are controversial is just childish.
What names and pronouns we use and what policies we make aren't science, they're social questions. When people say "transwomen are women" they mean use their fucking names and pronouns, be nice, and don't make them go to the bathroom where they're probably going to be raped. That's all.

I find it hilarious that this whole thing started after she made fun of a tweet referring to women as people who menstruate. It's stupid because JK and most 50+ year old women have likely hit menopause and no longer menstruate. So what are they? How do we refer to them? people who dont menstruate? so they are men? But we cant say men because there are men who menstruate now. And men with vaginas who dont menstruate because they have hit menopause.
How do you not read all that and not laugh your ass off. Thats all she was doing before she was cancelled. If they had just taken that joke in stride, she wouldnt have gone political and become the force she is today. She just got Scotland to ban rapist men from entering female prisons after a three year battle. Other changes shes fighting for now will be implemented soon enough. All they had to do was let her make the joke and she wouldve just kept on writing novels instead of doing this.

What did the Scots do? Is it about the prisons? Because that is a weak argument seeing as people lose certain rights when in prison (hence why they're in fucking prison).

Wow! Well.....one of the best ways to voice your opinion about something is through your wallet, so that's cool. And you have every right to do that. I wonder if they'll notice people pulling funds from them over this and think not covering the game wasn't worth it.

This isn't really true. That slogan has been used as the basis for some of the most illogical and crazy policies, like allowing trans women to compete in women's sports and allowing violent trans women into women's prisons.

It is the edge cases such as these that bring a spotlight to the incoherent thinking behind the proposed changes to the ID laws.

I'm not sure your point. This is an uninteresting semantic point, the question is if they have rights and how should they be treated.
I'm sorry, do you think "sports rules" is a field of science? Seriously wtf.
These are POLICY QUESTIONS that's my point. And some of those policy questions are difficult and controversial, because there are problems with putting trans people in EITHER sport category or prison, but these debates aren't because of a scientific disagreement, and it's really stupid to pretend otherwise.

I mean seriously, if you are blame yourself. DF has been riding the woke wave for sometime. One of them is an active user on REEEE. I stopped watching their shit way back due to their bias.
I recommend people to stop giving them clicks. They both hate GAF and it’s users , that alone should be enough to not support them.

Alex was crying over reee after the ion fury debacle and threw under the bus the entire gaming community to save his face because reee love when devs and "famous" people talk shit about gamers, he may be good at his work but he is definitely a spineless weak moron.
And don't forget his "this is not good for modern audience" retarded take from some time ago.

Not going to be fair to lying ass coward. Don't lie and say that is the reason you don't cover those types of games, when he has done so gleefully in the very recent past and someone brought the receipts.

No quotes then?
There's no contractual obligation to readers / viewers for them to provide input on any particular game. But that's a red herring argument. It's not posturing for people who help pay their bills (with clicks or subs) to expect them to review the technical details of the biggest game of the year. That is literally what people go to them for. If they don't want to do it fine, but yes, they will be failing a lot of their audience.

He banned someone the other day on his stream since the person asked yet again if he'd stream hogwarts. He got pissed and said i have no interest in this game, i dont like harry potter. Also made a script for when anyone mentions the game, it spews some bullshit about him not wanting to play it

Wow. To everyone calling others to unsubscribe from DF and block their ads etc.......
You do realize you're becoming one of them. While I'm disappointed theyre not covering it I can see why. So many posters here assume that they're part of the reee agenda. Have you not considered that they just can't be bothered with the hassle? As another poster said way earlier, maybe they just don't want to get canceled. Also It reads like John got harassed by these kind of people because he liked ion fury? WTF? Ion Fury is fucking great.
In fact, I was waiting for a video by them to help me decide whether or not to get it on PS5 or PC. (I dont care for harry potter but the game looks quite fun)

I was disagreeing with your point that "trans women are women" = just being polite and using someone's pronouns. Unless I misunderstood what you were saying. That phrase a foundational linguistic tactic to establish a narrative, so policies can be influenced afterwards.

Someone else will do it, and that someone will get a lot more traffic than usual. You aren't expected to be "loyal", just watch whatever coverage is good.

Exactly this, he covers a ton of shit, indie stuff, a LOT of stuff. He went on a rant of I dont give a shit about the HP universe. Right, you're willingly ignoring a shitload of views (his let's play are insanely popular) and revenues from it, from one of the best selling game of 2023, because you dont like the HP universe and you'll play some other shitty games instead.. right

I usually agree with this type of sentiment. Thing is sometimes you have to fight fire with fire.
These ”people” are a lost cause with that i mean they’ve already decided to hate us, lables us, ban us before getting to know any of us.
The only thing that would wake some of them the fuck up is when they eat eachother from within. That’s why we have alot of ex-re’s in GAF for example.
In this case would argue that the best solution is stop supporting any of them. Only talking about it won’t help in this situation imo.

Private beliefs are their business, however operational policy arising from those beliefs are in the public domain. They made it my business by altering their behaviour in a way I find ethically dubious and counter to the interests of gamers and game developers as a whole.
I also don't hate them for it. Hate's way too strong a word, I just think its deplorable behaviour for a great many reasons.
I believe in freedom of expression. This is an undisguised attempt to damage freedom of expression.
I don't support malicious actors in the public arena. And malice is exactly what this is all about. They don't like JK Rowling's views and are seeking to hurt her financially and in terms of public profile via the intermediary device of an IP she created.
That they don't care that those damages are also incurred at all stages of the development and publication of this game is the crux of my problem. They are indifferent to any damage inflicted on the livelihoods and lifestyles of everyone between them and the target of their ire.
This to me is simply despicably ill-considered and indiscriminate. As a culture we should not allow this to pass without strong critique.

My point is that we all know there are differences between transwomen and ciswomen. No one argues the "science", despite the fact that people like to posture behind "I'm just talking about biology."
The questions people disagree on is policy. And there are some situations -- like prison or sports -- where the man/woman binary just doesn't fit these people, and so the policy is controversial. Because while they may not be ciswomen, they really aren't men either. I don't propose to know all the solutions here, I am just saying you won't find them in a science book.
That feels like a stretch. They aren't actively sabotaging the game, they just don't want to help. I think that's an important distinction.

The game is a mega success both critically and commercially. IGN is tweeting about it left and right. Sony just announced a console edition. This “boycott” is a fart in the wind. It is about professionalism. The purple site is a drop in the pocket for your revenue DF. You lost the majority because of a small very annoying in need of professional help minority over a simple biology tweet.
