This topic was discussed in a vacuum, until people expanded it to wider issues. People need to be being able to understand one persons opinion on a single topic doesn't reflect how they feel on a topic adjacent to it. We we're and I'm defending my statements on Naughty Dog having a white VA play the role or a Black character. Thats it. It's up to you to know which topics I dress directly. If you take a statement in one context and apply it to another its interpreted differently. Is that my fault for not being hyper aware of how my views come across in every conceivable way?
An example I gave regarding a perspective to take on black representation was taken as my gospel truth, which to me shows me not only how strongly people feel towards misrepresentation of this kind, but how people read what they want. You pick apart my posts like each sentence exists in a vacuum, when the whole context matters. This topic is simply too sensitive for my opinions, and said opinions simply do not mesh or come out wrong.
If I seemingly am responding to a single sentence of your post, it's because that sentence is a key part of your misunderstanding of the discussion at large. If you say you don't care who plays the role as if that's relevant to the discussion, then it reflects a lack of awareness on your part you sound not aware that that makes you seem unconcerned with what's best for ND and the game industry and only care about voicing your opinion. That sentence tells people you don't see what's wrong with saying a dog could be playing the role for all you care.
All of that can be parsed from almost any one of your sentences, and, despite reading your posts in their entirety, I can infer that, based on you dismissing the other posters who have responded to you so far, going through those posts line by line and responding to each part individually wouldn't convince you of the (myriad) things you're wrong about. It seems you've been given the benefit of the doubt, but you double down on saying some questionable stuff.
You complain about people taking your comments out of context, yet you refuse to acknowledge the context of the discussion.
