As a Jew and a parent of a trans kid, I am having a lot of challenges with the gaming community’s acceptance of the new wizard game.

The creator of that IP is a gleeful anti-trans bigot. The game’s story is built around blood libel. And yet, outlets are still giving it huge play and content creators are conveniently ignoring the harm this game’s profits will directly contribute to.

Everyone needs to make their own choice, sure. But I am having a hell of a time not judging people.

@animeirl @Futterish I've heard around that the convo is starting to heavily shift from "transphobia" to this because the former didn't really work
idk why people are still harping on this like any attempt to organize a boycott was half-assed and it's obviously failed. In fact, if anything it increased the game's publicity so with that in mind why continue to talk about it?
@animeirl @Futterish Considering how annoying the ADL is, and how the organization is basically one of the biggest useful idiot around, it might actually work this time
Someone else had a point; wouldn't it imply the goblins are against Jews?
Me neither and I could give less of a shit, the people following this are the kind of people who sleep when there's a chemical leak in one state over that has the possibility to fuck over their water supply but get angry over a video game made by someone they hate.

@PhenomX6 @Futterish @animeirl @coolboymew Reminder that the WEF announced The Great Reset while everyone was hyper-focused on the George Floyd riots. The important news always gets buried underneath distractions.
